In a deep state of shock
June 28, 2012 at 9:07 am
I asked my mother if she believed in God which HELPS people on earth.
She said YES. I asked why. She said cause he helped HER.
I asked how. She said that she drowned. Lost consciesness. And woke up on a beach. There were no people around me. This to her is a proof of gods helping actions.
So I asked her what about people who suffer and die. She says "He might have been busy at the time"
I asked her if the god created universe she sayd "Maybe".
I asked her could it be that the god was created AFTER the universe began she said yes.
WHAT...THE...FUCK?
Today I will ask her how it would look like if I stood on the beach and observed what happened how would it look like.
I am in a deep state of shock from my 46 year old mother.

Questioning is fine, but becoming sadistic about it toward your mother is a bit misguided.
Trying to update my sig ...

I can relate, trust me.
Don't even bother man, theres no point. You'll just come out having less and less respect for her as she comes out with ever more ridiculous retorts in a desperate bid to validate her beliefs.

I'm not being sadistic it was just very unexpected.
Yeah I guess I just let her have it then.
The discussion is futile anyway.

This deity was "busy" and couldn't come to the aid of someone who was suffering?
So I guess he can't do anything after all....
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?

It looks like she can't find any other explanation for "strange events" other then "god did it"

Some people believe in total bollocks. What's new?
