L.B. Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Our 24-year-old car's transmission died today. My wife was working, and a co-worker offered to give us a ride home. When my wife said it was a good thing her co-worker was there to drive us, and how convenient it was that they lived near us, the co-worker said: "God totally made it so that we could find out how close we live to each other!" She then proceeded to tell a story about how her father was trying to sell their house, but had no takers. Neighbors were unchurched people, uninterested in religion. The neighbor man was supposedly into "satanic-ness" (her word). Then, suddenly, one day the neighbor decided he wanted to learn all about Jesus. This woman's father "led him to the Lord". A couple of weeks later, the neighbor man was driving his delivery truck and had a heart attack and crashed and was killed. According to her, the Lord must have thought, "you know me as personal savior, so I'll take you home so you're not corrupted by the world". So, this "Lord" is breaking down the car of two self-employed people with children to feed, and he's giving lethal heart attacks and car crashes to his "true believers". How the fuck do people actually accept that kind of bullshit? I guess when you accept that this god's special plans include the rape of children and the murder of millions, this other shit goes down like candy. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blasphemous Rumours Depeche Mode Girl of sixteen Whole life ahead of her Slashed her wrists Bored with life Didn't succeed Thank the Lord For small mercies Fighting back the tears Mother reads the note again Sixteen candles burn in her mind She takes the blame It's always the same She goes down on her knees And prays I don't want to start Any blasphemous rumors But I think that God's Got a sick sense of humor And when I die I expect to find Him laughing I don't want to start Any blasphemous rumors But I think that God's Got a sick sense of humor And when I die I expect to find Him laughing Girl of eighteen Fell in love with everything Found new life in Jesus Christ Hit by a car Ended up On a life support machine Summer's day As she passed away Birds were singing In the summer's sky Then came the rain And once again A tear fell From her mother's eye I don't want to start Any blasphemous rumors But I think that God's Got a sick sense of humor And when I die I expect to find Him laughing I don't want to start Any blasphemous rumors But I think that God's Got a sick sense of humor And when I die I expect to find Him laughing I don't want to start Any blasphemous rumors But I think that God's Got a sick sense of humor And when I die I expect to find Him laughing I don't want to start Any blasphemous rumors But I think that God's Got a sick sense of humor And when I die I expect to find Him laughing I don't want to start Any blasphemous rumors But I think that God's Got a sick sense of humor And when I die I expect to find Him laughing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
