lol, its not so much the event that makes me laugh as the womans reaction that she is now 'blessed to be alive', which probably sums up the ludricously blinkered north american christian belief system.

AOL Linky

EDIT

Even more worrying. Look at these stats from the site

What do you make of this story?

It's just a coincidence 39%
Who knows? 31%
It's divine intervention 30%
Total Votes: 34,179

So outta 30 odd thousand americans, a third believe that god did it.....

no, no ,no! If you survive an accident God saved you. If you die in an accident then he 'works in mysterious ways' he cant lose can he?

I wish everytime i forgot something people would go "oh look, theres Ultra, being mysterious again" tbh

You should respect other people's beliefs dude

At the risk of creating an SC mini-debate, when do the beliefs of others become so ridiculous as to be worthy of mockery?

I was drawing comic attention to the blind ignorance based around most organised faiths.

I for one believe as do many that smoked haddock ice cream is a bad idea. This belief is not silly it's simply a belief. It is one i cannot prove and for all the arguments in the world am unlikely to change my opinion on. However if some dude came up and gave me some, and it was good, i might be converted. Sadly not one single religeous person has ever come up to me with any plausable persuasion reccommending religeous practice, in fact most evidence points towards the contrary, that religeon achieves nothing except to steady ones frail sanity in the face of horror and adversity.

In essence what im saying is that the existence of god is even less likely than smoked haddock flavour ice cream selling well. Just some logic.

LOL, Christian Americans always make me laugh. It's quite scary how they're so fervent about their beliefs.

Thanks for the amusement
