Apparently, God Said "Fuck Off!"

Idiots.

Quote: Hannah Gastonguay, 26, said Saturday that she and her husband "decided to take a leap of faith and see where God led us" when they took their two small children and her father-in-law and set sail from San Diego for the tiny island nation of Kiribati in May.
But just weeks into their journey, the Gastonguays hit a series of storms that damaged their small boat, leaving them adrift for weeks, unable to make progress. They were eventually picked up by a Venezuelan fishing vessel, transferred to a Japanese cargo ship and taken to Chile where they are resting in a hotel in the port city of San Antonio.
How long before one of our resident idiots shows up claiming another fucking "miracle" that they weren't killed?

I bet they will call this a test.

God still makes travel itineraries? I thought the news about that tour group that spent 40 years in the Sinai Peninsula would have scared off future clients.

I disagree...in 'Murica, dragging god into a dumb idea gets you off the hook. Honestly saying, 'We fucked up and tried to kill our kids by not planning properly' is dumb. It opens you up to abuse claims.

Obviously god decided to fuck with them since they handed their lives to him just before the journey. He's holding a magnifying glass, and we are the ants.

It almost sounds as if nobody was leading them.

Well, the answer here seems obvious: Poseidon spared them.

Well, of course... god sent a boat to save them from the wreck of the boat he didn't save!
They can also spin it by suddenly remembering a series of "spiritual warnings" that god sent them, trying to get them to avoid taking this trip in the first place. Clearly they need to improve their relationship with god, otherwise they would have recognized the warnings right away.
Figure that the next news article will be a report on how they sacrificed one of the kids in order to "set things a'right with the LORD."
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Yeah a leap of faith involving two children and a giant fucking ocean sounds legit. God must be proud.
