I started out just trolling, got mad, went to bed, woke up from a nightmare to a notification on it and saw that comment and had to get up and get a glass of scotch.

My facebook status after seeing it was "At what point do you suggest to these people that they insert their head into a plastic bag?" I mean, how do you know you need air when you can't see it?

I've seen this moronic story before. Interesting that it's supposedly true, but there is no mention of when this happened, where it happened or the names of the people involved. But... oh, yeah! It's absolutely true! This story smells like a barnyard if you ask me.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

Right? But explaining "urban legend" to fucktards like those responding would have taken WAY too long.

And you would have gotten nowhere. This is some weepy story that sounds good. Never mind that it's no doubt a pile of excrement. It reminds me of a similar tale someone sent me in an email. This involved some kids playing baseball and there was a disabled kid who wanted to play. The other kids didn't want to have this disabled kid on their team, but they let him bat. The kid managed to put the bat on the ball and hit a little dribbler. Well, the kids in the field intentionally misplayed the ball and allowed the kid to circle the bases and score the "winning run"! The kids all felt good about themselves and obviously God" was responsible for all this! The intent here was no doubt to make you feel teary eyed about how wonderful "God" is and how he works in our lives. My immediate thought was, "So 'God' inflicted a disability on this kid so these other kids could feel good about themselves?"

Always late for the party, I am... Sad
Awesome story... Reminds me of our pal Drich with his "god told me to go into a specific bar and wait until I gave some good advice to a young man"....
oh well, I guess imagination is the one truly infinite power on this planet.

If I've learned anything from my lawyer father, it's that you can justify anything with enough emotional appeal. The religious are pros at it.

Hahahaha, I totally forgot that I responded to one person who said they believed in angels, "why not zombies? I think Carlin had something to say about that."

This is one of the best Carlin quotes ever, and is highly mine-able for situations like that:

Sadly, the same morons who believe in angels keep the zombie franchise going.

Asswipes.

Fuck that, I love zombies.

But I don't believe in them any more than angels. I just find them highly entertaining.
