Guardian angel saves baby

[coldwx]

I find it perplexing that in situations like this there is the automatic leap to the supernatural. In most other instances (aliens, bigfoot), people go through a progression of natural explanations first and discount the far-fetched claim. However, when one makes a claim that a god or angel is "watching over" a person or that they heard an angel talk to them, everyone nods in agreement. Never mind the fact that in this case, the voice could have been a last gasp from the dying mother, or another person in the rescue effort, or an on looker, or etc. etc. etc. To me it speaks to a sort of desperation to find anything at all to justify a belief. Why can't individuals just be happy the child is alive and sad that the mother died instead of always trying to link some fanciful claim to whatever god they happen to believe.

you didn't read the atical did you, yet you thought you somehow knew enough to contribute... seem like Atheism 101 applied to the rest of life.. Good job!

(Mom had been dead for 14 hours)

I did read the article, but did you? You know the mom was dead for 14 hours? Where does it say that she died on impact? And since the whole point of my post was that we don't know what happened, but you automatically assume a supernatural cause. There was a litany of other plausible natural causes for the so called voice. You don't really think through your posts do you? Kindly fuck off.
