Measles Outbreak at Vaccine-Denying Church

The expression "No Atheists in Foxholes" refers to the moment somebody thinks they're gonna die, whether they believed in a God or not, they adopt a God and start praying! It's kinda like saying, "Atheists may go in to Fox Holes, but the moment the shit hits the fan, they don't stay Atheists long"

Joe Simpson, author of "Touching the Void", addresses the issue in the film adaptation of his nearly fatal climb up the Siula Grande mountain. Referring to the moment when he lay at the bottom of a deep crevasse, dehydrated, alone, and with a broken leg, he states:

'"I was totally convinced I was on my own, that no one was coming to get me. I was brought up as a devout Catholic. I'd long since stopped believing in God. I always wondered if things really hit the fan, whether I would, under pressure, turn round and say a few Hail Marys and say 'Get me out of here'. It never once occurred to me. It meant that I really don't believe and I really do think that when you die, you die, that's it, there's no afterlife."
