People will always see their gods and their beliefs in supernatural events and common shares. It's just as well that the religious brain works.

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'd like to 'point out' the comment of "The idiot" who made the opening post, was the first to mention "was not a miracle that they weren't killed."

Still keeping score Minnie? Be sure to mark me down for two

My first thoughts were perhaps Hannah's husband should learn to listen and wait for God, rather foolishly leaping faith first.

That was a prediction that you, G-C or another idiot like you would make such an absurd claim.

I'll take the point.

At the end of the article Hannah Gastonguay said the family will now "go back to Arizona" and "come up with a new plan."

Maybe they will consider atheism?

Wait. Hold the bus. She thought that hopping in a boat with no destination and seeing what happens was a plan?

Religious "faith" 101. It's "god's plan."

No, dimwit! THEY PRAYED FIRST!!! Totally foolproof, except for the part where it all went to shit.

If only they'd had the foresight to pray for storms!

I bet you win every game you've ever played by like a million points haven't you?

And atheists wonder why they are stereotyped?

Why not be thankful that the people did not die and are still alive?

Instead you use the case as material to rant and rave and curse about a God you do not even believe exists....

They believe in God, you guys don't. But I assure you, threads like this only serve to show that your attitude towards those that have different beliefs than you make you look just like those same people you are so quick to judge for being bigots.
