What is the weirdest thing...

[paulpablo]

I don't know about defying an explanation but the weirdest thing is probably weather related for me.

I was running down a road with my friend and I guess it was the smallest rain cloud I've ever known to exist went past us, down the road, then back over our heads again.

Like one of those cartoons when someone is sad and the rain is purely concentrated above them, or like someone spraying a pressure washer over us.  It was quite far to the left and right of us but we could see where the rain cloud began and ended and where it was moving in terms of front to back.

Probably a rain cloud but I've never seen anything close to like that since.

I was once sitting on my lanai on the FL inter coastal waterway, and like you said, the tiniest rain cloud was  raining on the water and coming right at me and went right over my head. It was cool to watch.

One time, and this is weird, I was at work and a storm suddenly hit(common in HI). I ran out to my van to roll up my windows just as the rain stopped but it was odd. There wasn't a single raindrop on my van anywhere and my seats where dry! Every car around was soaked! Don't ask me.

Another time, and this was cool, an associate and I went shopping after work. While we were shopping, a downpour started and continued through check-out. My friend said, "We are gonna get wet". I said, "No we're not". I prayed to God and demanded the rain to stop. As soon as we walked out the door, the rain stopped! "Sometimes it's just soo cool bein' me"--Ace Ventura, Pet Detective.

Another time, another associate and I where smoking a cigarette after work under shelter waiting for a downpour to end(it rains a lot in South FL). My friend said, "It's not going to let up". I prayed loudly, "God I command You as one Who can command weather, to make this rain stop!". It stopped that very second! I said, "Lets run to are cars". When we returned to our cars, the rain started again!

Last year, hurricane Mathew was headed for FL so I wrote a prayer on a Christian website, a few days before, and commanded and demanded God kick that storm out a here and move it out to sea. The Christian community gave me a ration of shit for my audacious prayer.

I awoke early on the day of it's arrival and saw that the storm was making a beeline right up my ass! My wife and I had been preparing and were making final preps to bunker down in the closet. Just before the storm was gonna hit, I went out onto my covered lanai and had a glass of gin and a cigarette and waited. NOTHING! So I went in and looked at the news and right at the last second, the storm had done the sweetest little dance around Palm Beach county were I was living and went out to sea! The Christians said I just got lucky. The next day, everyone in PBC as talking about that "sweetest little dance" how unbelievable it was! Yeah! I got powers! I lived in South Florida for 6yrs and never owned an umbrella. I didn't need one.

I was having a conversation with someone about God, when suddenly absolutely nothing happened.

[SaStrike]

I think he's implying that his god lifted the truck to save the cat.

Which is funny to me, since in my area of the world, everything from squirrels to household pets (usually cats) to deer and moose are hit by vehicles with some regularity, with most of the drivers believing in one of the variations of the god he believes in.  Shit, I almost hit a freaking owl several years ago at night because it caught its prey in my lane.

Animals in the road... pretty mundane.  You want weird?  Try tripping on ketamine.  Back in the late 80s/early 90s my surgeon used it as my general anesthetic (or, part of a cocktail).  It's the reason why I laugh at all the NDE threads.  I know firsthand what a brain can do when it's being chemically altered.  I still vividly remember several of my hallucinations.  And I'm talking shit like seeing my own mother operate on me, being on a floating island in a purple-gray void with lightning in the background as 3D letters whizzed by me while everything smelled of ozone and rain, etc.

I didn't imply anything. It defies explanation. Looking back, I have done experiments with ElectroMagnetism because my opinion is the truck was in an EM bubble(don't know what else to call it). In an EM bubble, gravity can't recognize weight and the light bending around means I was also invisible. Yet, how did I get in an EM bubble? I could point to God, or angels or, whatever but, I would rather understand the mechanics. It is mechanically possible naturally because I've seen it. I'm getting to understanding it and soon I will fly again and I will be Gravity Man! Gravity is a scalar force. The vector of weight is down. In an EM bubble, you would be fully weight but you would experience no wind or G-force. I could stop on a dime and give you 9 cents change!

so much physics errors... rather just say god did it, please

fuk those starving Africans an American stayed dry, another found their car keys & a team led in unconstitutional prayer by their coach (FFRF have been alerted) won a football game.

The purpose of my thread was to hear other peoples stories as I'm sure that strange seemingly unexplainable things happen all the time. I'm into strange sciences so I'm sure that these events are explainable as I know God to be preternatural and not supernatural. I am definitely not a fundamentalist.

However, I fully realize that such a question is extremely trollish. I did not intent that so I apologize. I just like the stories as well as, nature and science.

I once threw a cheezel at my friend from a few metres away.
He was opening his mouth to protest and it went straight in.
So he spat it into his hand and threw it back at me and it went straight into my laughing mouth. Yuck.

A man, arriving home after a late night at the office, finds his wife snoring on the couch. He drops two aspirin into her mouth. She awakes and gasps, "What are you doing, I don't have a headache!" To which he replies, "awhaa..."

I said in my intro thread that I am a clown. I think arrogance is hilarious so I use it in my clownish ravings. I have NO "self esteem"! What I have is "Cognitive Invincibility"! See what I mean? My stories are true yet anecdotal. They prove nothing except I like playing the fool! Dude! I quoted Ace Ventura!

I backpacked into a canyon in the Superstition Mountains in Arizona. Music Box Springs Canyon. Hikers called it "The Big O" because it almost formed a complete circle. Right after sunset a thunder cloud appeared above one wall of the canyon. It kept rising above the cliff until the cloud spilled into the canyon. The cloud dumped rain, thunder, and lightening as it made three passes inside the canyon. Very low to the ground and fast moving. After the third trip around it went up over the canyon wall and continued its desert travels. Awesome spectacle and very weird. You could assign an animist quality if you were so inclined.

Oh yeah, physics! Physics once, hundreds of years ago, believed light was only a particle. Then, no! It's only a wave! Then Maxwell(1850?) experiments and gives us his experiments and equations proving that light is a wave and a particle. Giving rise to "Quantum Mechanics". At the end of the 19th century, it was a big argument. Since then, Einstein gave us E = MC2 to which Nicola Tesla replied, "WRONG" yet, "He is a kindly gentleman who wants to help". Einstein then gives us his "New Relativity" and the argument continue to this day. Yet, a photon is a completely unique massless particle and a lot of fun to play with!

Your "physics" is completely religiousized and is just as stupid as Christianity and Atheism! Humanism will NEVER be bigger than nature. That's just arrogance with out humor! At least I'm funny.
