Pity, it would help to make the gene pool just a bit clearer if they did.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Especially if it was a helicopter.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

They are talking in reference to a whole life. If a christian is steering there own life they should switch seats and let Jesus drive.

No fucking shit they didn't mean it literally, they couldn't mean it literally, as there's no god to literally do anything with. But if they're going to go off on these flights of fancy with this god they don't know exists, then you bet your ass I'm going to have some fun with it by doing the same.

This sign was meant for either low-flying planes or idiots who think their cars can fly. Cars have drivers, planes have pilots.

If you're in a plane that has god as a co-pilot, strap on a parachute and jump the fuck out - it is a plane that never took off and will never land.

I trust a dog more than any "god" to fly this plane.


I hope you mean
