I will be brief, as this is very old news now. I really don't like how you guys jump on every article like this, and parade out your tired opinions. We know you don't like it when people thank or credit "God" for seemingly miraculous events. And I know I should let it go, because you deserve a community of perpetual back slapping... All I can say (again) is that it is rude to project your opinion on this situation, and be so "holier-than-thou" over the person quoted. To say that the other 152 are 'forgotten' or 'unworthy' is to be disingenuous at best. You should know full well that that is not what the quotee meant, only your unfortunate way of looking at it.
When you are the miraculous sole survivor, you get to decide what your soundbite is. Also, when you are dead and the miraculous survivor makes a quote about god, you are absolutely allowed then to be offended. Offended and dead. Good, proper atheist dead too.
I just have to say it is rude, and your clear misinterpretation of the poor persons remarks shouldn't be passed back and forth like a doob of stoop, until you all feel a little more superior.
There.
Thanks,

You miss the point. I repeat, please concentrate, if God is responsible for saving 1 out of 152, then he is to blame for the 151 dead.
I ask you directly how/why you can worship such a fiend?
A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
