Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

As we Already KNOW - prayer has NO effect beyond that of chance
THERE had been no study of prayer - using a statistically significant sample - and published in a peer reviewed scientific journal that suggest that prayer has ANY effect. IT make no difference if you pray or not - and it makes no difference what you pray to. Muslims get that same lack of effect praying to their spook - as Xtians do praying to their spook. YOU can pray to the sun - or to a rock = or to a statue - or to the xtian god - and get the SAME lack of effect.

Just another reason to reject the claims of religion

Quote:"We are devastated and just ask for the people to be praying," Stutts told the Associated Press.

For what, I wonder?

Which is why I posted the story. Bad things happen at the same rate to those devout Christians who pray and go to prayer meetings as to us atheists who don't.

You forgot one thing, those who died will be in heaven, where will you spend eternity. This horrible accident happened only a few miles from where I live, Christian or not they deserve respect and concern from all. I prayed for them and I prayed for their families and the ones who were injured, I do that for all I hear of that lose loved ones, Christian or not.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Maybe they will blame the crash on a jewish made tire and start a new pogrom?
Then they can make the crash victims saints.

It's SOP at the catholic's house, but since the church wasn't catholic they're just out of luck. God works in "MYSTERIOUS" ways!
Find the cure for Fundementia!

How do you know? The hotline to god ringing off the hook or are you just spouting bullshit as usual?

Just because they were in a church bus does not mean they were Christians. Lotsa tares in the church I hear.

Is this like a reverse NTS?
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
