The other atheist in a good mood

My grandmother, Greta, left church to marry my grandfather (Svante). As most people, she only belonged to church because of tradition, habit, something very common still today. She was a very quiet and shy person, and had a very humorous way to express herself. Once some Jehova Witnesses knocked on her door to try to convince her to join their sect with the argument that the places in heaven were limited (they actually think so) and that she should grant hers. She calmly answered that she'd rather leave her place for someone more "eager".

They say I resemble her. Well, at least I'm sure I inherited her good mood.
