My favourite part is how people thank God for surviving a disaster. Like, your God put you there and you’re thanking it for saving you from the disaster it put you in? Lol
Yeah. "This violent tornado missed my home so close! Oh thank you, god!"
Noone ever asks why their god created the tornado in the first place. Not even the neighbor whose house has been obliterated. He's probably thanking god for being alive. It's bizarre.
I remember seeing an SUV that had this in vinyl on their back window (paraphrased, I don't remember the exact wording): "RIP so-and-so - God cured his suffering and took him to Heaven."
So, God either gets credit for killing the guy, or he gets credit for saving the guy. No matter what, God comes out as the good guy!
I have no idea how people live in this mindset.
It's purely emotional, irrational thinking, solely serves the purpose of giving a weak mind an easy way to feel better about bad things that happen.
My mind doesn't work that way, I can't auto suggest myself out of logic - and to me, that kind of thinking is what is fundamentally wrong about this world. It makes people susceptible to all kinds of intellectual dishonesty.
If you can lie yourself into believing obvious bullshit just because it's comfortable, you will also be easily influenced by liars, charlatans and demagogues.
I highly doubt that people like Trump would be possible In a predominantly atheist society with people who are used to scientific scepticism.
HiS wAyS aRe MyStErIoUs
it's like removing the tariffs to reduce grocery prices
It is always either "God works in mysterious ways" or "It was a test from God".
I used to tell those types of people that gay, Trans etc was a test. Except it's not the gay and trans people being tested. And they failed.
That's what is called codependency
Yeah. It's like doctors ; they really love it when people thank God for saving a patient. Usually it's the dumbass family but it's really a special moment when it's the dumbass patient themselves.
What's our opinion on thanking God for blessing doctors with the talent to save your life/lives of others? A bit more empathetic?
(I'm not suggesting this is necessarily my belief, but for those who profess a love for God/Allah/etc, I think it is fair to both thank the creator they believe in as well as the people who work on them on earth).
"it" is crazy work lmao
They probably blame the devil for putting them in the situation.
