par4dcourse Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Article and picture from a bad auto crash in the local fishwrapper today Driver survived but critical. Local sheeples comments included "only god" and "god saved her!". I of course chimed in with "is god pissed at people who get killed in wrecks?" and "why did god allow the accident to happen in the first place?" Which started me thinking about all the shit god is supposed to do. Since the human brain is encased in a secure dark airtight case, everything we sense is in reality electro-chemical reactions in the brain. Several of them. Billions of them, every second. Recalling a scene or a sound takes untold numbers of synapses firing and chemical absorption and release. So the simple act of hearing god, which millions (including most politicians) claim happens daily, would require manipulation of so many electrons it makes my head hurt. A miracle indeed. Or imagination coupled with indoctrination. You decide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexton Blake Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Gods came about because ignorant people used them to explain how things work. Ignorant people still use a god to explain what they don't understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn't Jesus take the wheel? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
