HOLY FUCKING SHIT!?! I'd like too start by saying, believe whatever the hell you want. But please....please don't' be fucking ignorant about it. Learn some facts, and wake up just a tiny bit. Can you people believe the shit that is coming out of her mouth? This is for real people. Especially down here in the south, they actually think that GOD (if there was one) is going too make things allllll better and coddle their asses. Fuuuuuck me. So, what's "God's" interest in America? does he pick favorites? Does he care that we have a fucked up corrupt system and we make lotsa money? Or is he picking us because everybody in the world hates us, and his bookie told him too bet the underdog?
Wake up people. Hell, read your precious bibles again. God loves everyone equally, I know this, because...ding ding ding it's in the Bible! And the bible is always right....So if he loves everyone equally, and each side of any war prays too him to help them destroy the enemy..someone's gonna be disappointed. Is this making sense too any of you? God doesnt give a fuck where you live, what your country is called, or how gullible you are for believing in a false war. He just doesn't give a shit.
And don't you think if he did, that he'd care about everyone? And there wouldn't be floods, tornadoes, starvation, poverty, slavery, genocide, corruption, and every human being would have a roof over their head and food everyday? Get real people. If there is a "God", he is either laughing his ass off for people being so stupid, or he simply just couldn't give a fuck less what happens. So then whats the point in praying in the first place?
What makes you prayers any different than theirs? Just because you live here? I'm sure in the afterlife, celestial world, borders and country's really make that extra difference. It's all just getting out of hand folks, has been ever since WWII. The more people who live in subjection and are silenced by Dietys, the more power the false establishment has too do whatever it wants, whenever it pleases. Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.
PS: Please by all means leave your "I'm religious and this is my opinion" comments below, I'd love too read them.
I would also like to add that religious people will always make piss poor excuses to address the concerns in your post.
For example:
"God works in mysterious ways"
"You can't test God"
"That's not how God works"
"Bad things happen as a result of our sins"
"That's why you have to have FAITH"
...and the sheeple continue on their merry, albeit deluded, way.
"If you could reason with religious people, there would be no religious people." -House :P
"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?" -Epicurus
"The invisible and the non-existent look very much alike." -Delos McKown
I would also like to add that the bible is extremely ambiguous and self contradictory. This allows people to cherry pick whatever verse they like to support their already existing ideologies. Contradictions: http://www.project-reason.org/bibleContra_big.pdf
They then blame passages in the bible that go against their views for being "outdated and not relevant anymore". As if absolute morals from God change based on the type of culture we live in.
You also mention "And don't you think if he did, that he'd care about everyone? And there wouldn't be floods, tornadoes, starvation, poverty, slavery, genocide, corruption, and every human being would have a roof over their head and food everyday?"
God has done all of those things many times over (if he existed). In the bible, God kills 2,476,633 people. Satan only kills 10. http://dwindlinginunbelief.blogspot.com/2006/08/who-has-killed-more-satan-or-god.html

I wasn't aware that KJ asked for God's help when he was in the hospital bed. However, I'm not surprised in the slightest. When we are scared and helpless, we don't act rational. We aren't who we truly are. We are desperate, frantic, terrified, and will reach out to anything that has the slightest chance of helping us. Please do not confuse his moment of panic with a moment of clarity. It was anything but.
Interesting points Kj. There are those radicals out there who truly believe that praying will change their lives. It takes away responsibility for the actions that fallow their prayers. Yes their faith may be strong but, I think its an escape from dealing with the real issues. They are transferring responsibility to God. Yes I believe there is a Higher Power. However, I believe that God is guiding us. Not determining our lives for us and deciding what will happen. We are humans, we sin, we make mistakes and thats what makes us human. This lady is definitely off her rocker and is wasting her life and time by praying about everything. She has the power to change her life. The people have the power to change their own futures. People are just too lazy and scared to stand up and do something to change the world.

ReplyDeletePrayer statistically doesn't work. Study after study has shown this.
