The people who hate and loathe you and your world, and will expend their lasts breaths to end you and your world, all deserve to live? Have you heard me call for their deaths you ignorant fuck?!? Again, you have no right to speak for me or tell me what I believe. Sorry drippy, but I'm not pro-death for everyone who doesn't agree with me, as you seem to be implying you are, nor do support the death penalty. Even if I did and even if I thought it applied to the people you mentioned above, it certainly doesn't apply to a 25-year old mother who, as far as we know, has done nothing wrong, except trusting the wrong gawd.

It's a shame you can't seem to say the same.

Do you fear death? Do you feel cheated if someone does not live the perfect life span?
Again what makes you think we are all entitled to old age? In your perfect little world do parents of small children somehow get a automatic pass to old age? What the fuck are you even talking about?!? Death itself is neither good nor bad. It's the natural end to our lives. I was talking about the child who was deprived of her mother. The one who will have to grow up knowing only what other tell her about her mother. Or, did that point sail so far over your head that you couldn't see it with a telescope?

Only those who fear death feel cheated by it. You certainly didn't do it with the callousness you've shown in this thread, considering you haven't been beaten to death for your troubles.
No drippy, I don't fear the time to come after my life is over. I suspect it will be much like all the time before it started and none of that troubled me in the least.
You go ahead and take comfort from your lies. The truth is better, no matter how harsh.

I know what you said and I know what you meant, but like it or not lax, your version does not fit the FACTS reported in the story.
The FACTS of the case is that some people reported hearing a voice at a chaotic, stressful rescue scene. That's not what's under contention, and it's also not something I've taken issue with here. Your completely unjustified assertion that the voice belonged to a guardian angel is what's problematic with this story, and that's truly something that doesn't fit with the FACTS of reality. You can grandstand all you like, but in truth you're just doing what you always do, and are arguing from ignorance: pointing at a mystery- more likely either someone else at the scene asking for help in an unrelated task or an auditory hallucination, which is the kind of thing that happens every day- and assuming that it's what you want it to be, because you said so, isn't much of a position.
But hey, you go back to being a complete slimeball, as I've seen from reading the rest of the thread. That's more your speed than producing accurate observations about reality.

Ah, yes. The Guardian angle stories.
I guess, Guardian angels are otherwise engaged when starving children around the world call for help. They're busy saving one precious first world baby.

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.

Big old pile of rotten monkey wank is what it is.
If you're going to just randomly assert supernatural explanations, then any other explanation is equally as valid.
If was a magic mermaid voice. It was the God of Apple's intervention. I did it with my magic eyebrows.
None of them can be proved, disproved or even evaluated in any way at all. That's why such "explanations" are utterly worthless and are just representations of the mythology floating around the people's brains.

Hey Drich, this all sounds strangely familiar. I had a hunch that your feedback thread was bullshit.

Secondly, based on your logic, your thread title could equally fairly be written "guardian angel sits and watches woman die, ensuring her baby grows up without a parent, and then continues to watch that baby suffer for more than half a day before human beings, evidently more moral than angels, came to her rescue."

Not to sound too insensitive, but here are two more supernatural theories for you Drich :
1) The mom had slowly frozen to death but she still couldn't leave her baby. So when finally people came close her spirit called out to them as desperately as she might have wanted to while she was still alive. That was the final cry of a loving mother.
2) The woman knew what she had with her was not something that belonged to this earth, but was more sinister. She plunged the car in the water as the final attempt to escape the devil's spawn, but she failed. The demon was finally free, it called out to the nearby humans for now it was time to venture outside...
Besides, what's the point in shouting for help when people are already trying to save her?
