No sooner than the news hitting Facebook was the credit for his safety immediately being given to God. Not a word about the guys that rig the chute, nothing about the guys that run the rockets and explosives in the ejection seat and canopy jettison system...just..."Thank God for sending those angels up with him today." You can bet your sweet ass that if this crash can be traced back to somebody, heads are gonna roll, but why? This was all God's plan. Why look at all? It got me thinking, why the fuck do Christians even care what caused the jet to malfunction and crash? Why recover the "little black box"? If God wanted that plane to crash, and the guy to survive, what good is there in understanding what the actual mechanical issue was? Sure, we could fix it, but if we're going up against God's plan, surely he'll find a different way to crash it. Why do the Christians in the Maintenance Department get pissed when shit hits the fan like this? Surely they realize that it was God's will, and all part of his plan, right? If God gets the credit for the stuff that worked, surely he should get the credit for the stuff that doesn't. It's just like when a Doctor saves somebody in a meticulous surgery, or a nurse in the NICU keeping a one pound baby alive, if it's success, it goes to God, if it's failure...WHO'S FUCKING FAULT IS THIS???
