Presumably the lions were well-fed. I'd want to know things like 'how tame were those lions?' and 'did the pastor have an opportunity to befriend them beforehand?'

Did anyome notice that they were all fixated on sonething else and only noticed him when he started fucking with them, and that was short lived.

Please, a moment of silence for this martyred man.

Hey, I want my pillars of sensuality.

Watching Matt Dillahunty debate different muslims. More than one of them are insisting that there is science in the Koran and that those scientific predictions are so remarkable that the Koran must be true. I think that's an example of some stupid things that religious people say!

It is stupid. Here is how Neil deGrasse Tyson explains so-called "scientific predictions in the Quran who also gets bothered by deluded Muslims who fall for that trick

Quote:What typically happens is that devout people learn what scientists have discovered about the natural world and then go back into their religious texts in search of passages that hint at what is already known. But since the extracted information comes after-the-fact, it’s not useful to the advance of science. What you need to do, if you are convinced of Qur’anic foresight and inerrancy, is come up with predictions about the natural world derived from Qur’anic verse that will stimulate research. If any of it comes true (it would be a first time for such a thing, by the way) then scientists would be mining the Qur’an for its insights daily.

Probably the only strawman they had back then were scarecrows.

Looking at Bishop Sheen, it seems that by "pillars of sensuality" he probably meant meat pillars that he dreamed of getting into his ass, but was brainwashed into fear of them.

A viral video shared on Facebook appeared to show a bus full of school children suddenly disappearing into thin air. "All the Kids Disappeared from the Bus OMG, Where Did They Go?" read text on the screen of the Sept. 25 video, suggesting that perhaps they had gone through a portal.



This video was created by a Christian organization called Turning Point for God led by Dr. David Jeremiah, a radio and television minister.

The viral clip was taken from a "Rapture Pre-Enactment" video shared on their website, Perhaps Today. The website explains that its videos are meant to illustrate what the rapture might look like when caught on camera.

Other videos on the site include fake police body cam footage and a bystander video that supposedly capture the moment people vanish. The scenes appear to unfold in churches, airports, and restaurants.

The site is explicit that the dramatized footage is meant to drive people to the site and learn more about Christian beliefs. "This realistic ‘caught on camera’ user-generated footage grabs the viewers’ attention and creates curiosity that leads them to our Perhaps Today! website (the one you are on, right now!), where they discover more about the Rapture and find the Gospel message."
