That maxim, "There are no atheists in foxholes," it's not an argument against atheism — it's an argument against foxholes.

- James K. Morrow

I have never prayed to god and I've never been in a plane crash.

So this person believes their god wants people to be in fear and panic, begging for their lives, and to die anyway? Thats so fucked up.

"I have no evidence for any of this but I know in my heart it's true!"

According to the most recent studies, it turns out the name of God is

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH"

I heard one black box where the pilot’s final words were just a very resigned, almost conversational, “Goddamnit.”

Is this supposed to make me believe in God? As if people who die in a plane crash know more about the universe than me somehow? Does falling really fast instill some ancient forgotten knowledge in you?

Praying is wishing, It has the same effect. Sometimes it works, sometimes it don't. It gives us comfort, because our brains are wired like that, if we can't get what we want, maybe some authority can give it to us by asking nicely. Expressing it soothes us. It's like screaming HELP! when you fell down a well. It's not aimed at anyone in particular, it's just a cry for anyone or anything to help you, because you're desperate.

Shit, cats do that. Do they also pray to god?

I’m pretty sure there are at least four where the last thing on them is “allahu akbar”

Yes, a large percentage of the population is religious, that doesn't make their religion true

Who else are they gonna pray to? Joe Pesci?

This mfer has never heard of selection bias.

What are the bets they're in the US, and hearing about crashes mostly in the US?

Christianity may be the largest religion in the world, but it's a plurality, not a majority.

"Are all our prayers answered? Yes, they are. What people who ask that question often don’t realize is that sometimes the answer to our prayer is "no." Dear God, please make my mother not be crazy. God’s answer: no. Dear God, please let me recover from cancer. God’s answer: no. Dear God, please take away this toothache. God’s answer: alright, but you’re going to be run over by a car."

Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You

Ok it's funny but black box doesn't record audio from the cabin. Pretty sure it just has like flight data. From the airplane sensors. And logs of actions. ?

Satanic media, how old is this?

Actually, I've seen a compilation of plane crash last recordings, and literally all of them are pilots screaming at each other to maneuver and/or cursing at the top of their lungs.

What's hilarious is proof that religious propaganda is wrong is always extremely easy to find. Yet your dipshit demented christian grandparents or parents will regurgitate that trash non-stop anyway.

Is that the same god who chose pedo Antoinette the horse dick sucking Russian traitor?

The ones who prayed to Satan were saved.

Either prayers don't work, or they make god super duper angry.

I'd hedge my bets too if I knew I had mere minutes to live. I stand to lose nothing and I gain comfort at the end, regardless of whether or not I am rewarded with some kind of afterlife.

Isn't there one whose final words are "ruh-roh raggy?"
