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

its an excellent point...god always comes out on top..regardless of which god it is!!

I was watching stuff about the earthquake in pakistan a couple of months ago and all the poor folks were basically saying "god will save us"..but surely if you believe in that stuff..he must have caused it in the first place!!!!

Shiva tends to be a little worse than this, striking someone with lightning is more like "Shiva can't find her key" or "Shiva got short-changed in the shop."

Ah, maybe her banana bread didn't quite come out as she had hoped.
 
LOL, Christian Americans always make me laugh. It's quite scary how they're so fervent about their beliefs.

Thanks for the amusement :)

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.

Natural disaster, many hundreds dead…
> Cue smartly dressed news reporter (minority if happens in red-neck state)
> Cue some dishevelled looking overweight woman
“I thank God every day for protecting me”

Gives you the impression God wants his devotees to be hillbilly porkers.

oh man if you think this is funny i should post each headline i see on AOL.com when i check my mail lol it's far better than joke.com tbh and sometimes actually interesting.
 
From a non-beliver's point of view - Coincidence.
From a believer's point of view - Some sort of divine intervention or God responding etc.

Personally i dont know what to say. It might have been a freak accident.

Proving once and for all that he'd not lost his music writing ability!

Lol she wins both ways. If nothing happened she would have said she was blessed and if something happened (which it did) then she is apparently still blessed to be alive. Nutty people.
