What is the lamest "miracle"?
December 11, 2011 at 12:11 pm
With all the various religions there are thousands of "miracles" that are claimed to have occurred. What do you think is the lamest of these so-called "miracles"? My vote is for the "miracle" of Hannukkah. A one day supply of oil "miraculously" lasted for eight days? This has to be the lamest "miracle" ever! It couldn't possibly have happened that they miscalculated how much oil they had? It couldn't be that someone added oil without telling anyone? And this is the best your deity can do? Stretch a supply of oil? Never mind all the people who are being persecuted and tortured.... let's worry about keeping a lamp burning! Yeesh!
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?

One of the lamest and most pathetic miracles would probably the one where god helps a football team win a game while thousands of children are currently starving to death in Africa.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

So the Christians can keep their "values," a woman, out of nowhere, with no help from anyone, suddenly develops the Lord and Savior in her womb.
Trudging through endless religion one step at a time.

The lameness of the "Miracle of Christianity" is equal to the sum of the lameness of all miracles claimed by Christians, and is therefore the supreme lameness itself where lameness is concerned.

"Sisters, you know only the north; I have traveled in the south lands. There are churches there, believe me, that cut their children too, as the people of Bolvangar did--not in the same way, but just as horribly. They cut their sexual organs, yes, both boys and girls; they cut them with knives so that they shan't feel. That is what the Church does, and every church is the same: control, destroy, obliterate every good feeling. So if a war comes, and the Church is on one side of it, we must be on the other, no matter what strange allies we find ourselves bound to."
-Ruta Skadi, The Subtle Knife
