Popular Post theyownyou33 Posted January 18, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 18, 2018 So, I have a family friend on Facebook still who is charismatic christian and posts ridiculous things all the time without thinking what it really means. Below is the excerpt of what she recently said. "God is always protecting us and because he sent the snow I worked a half office morning I always stop here and get gas at about this time and I knew I needed gas today...man pulled a knife and a handgun on three females Wednesday morning at a Speedway gas station in Lower Macungie Township and forced one of them to get cash from an ATM before he fled with the money, police said. The robbery happened at 9:28 a.m. in the station at 5640 Hamilton Blvd., state police at Fogelsville said. God is our protector" So, not only is she crazy enough to believe that God sent our snow storm just to keep HER from getting robbed at her regular gas station, but she also praises him for protecting her. I guess the three women who were emotionally scarred by this tragic incident are just fucked or hated by God or both? So, I have another question. If two or more people pray for snow and two or more other people pray that it doesn't - how does God calculate the votes? How does he know what to do?!? Anyway, I'm sick of this stuff. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yunea Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I wonder what she'd say if it would turn out that those three women went to the same church as she. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurisaz Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Another instance of the "praya wurkzzzz!!!!!!!!!" bullshit. Millions, literally millions of people have prayed for peace for several decades at least. Didn't work out so well did it? Oh right these were alllllllllll No True Christians(TM) I forgot... which is always crystal clear after the fact. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator LogicalFallacy Posted January 18, 2018 Moderator Share Posted January 18, 2018 The moral abhorrence of this thinking really concerns me. Its essentially in the form of "God did X for me" but then the person completely fails to acknowledge what God didn't do for someone else. My prime example is "I prayed and God found my keys" meanwhile fails to acknowledge that the same God left a 4 year old child to die in agony from cancer, and left her parents grieving for the rest of their lives. If that's they way you think, your moral compass is screwed! 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disillusioned Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Well obviously God likes her more that those other three women. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lerk Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 When you don't know those people, they're "the world." Obviously their god isn't protecting people who are "of the world." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God sent the snow for me, and fuck the other women because I'm the most important one in the story...besides god of course....wink, wink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
