Jesus, who gives a shit about this? Just believe whatever the hell you want and extend others the same courtesy.

And besides, if you wanted to convert people to your faith, posting a coincidence with a sound logical explanation isn't the way to do it.

I'm probably never going to convert, but I've heard much more reasonable arguments for religion besides this.

Same here.

Matters of coincidence isn't proof of shit.

that's why religion is so bad though

because the whole idea is that they can't keep their beliefs to themselves
because... that's against their religion

The cognitive dissonance is real.

- bus catches fire
- God saves the Bible
- Praise God!!

How about the motherfucker doesn't let the bus catch fire? What a crazy idea.
Is it god's fault that you're a fat manchild?
Says the guy who fantasizes about old ladies. You have a lot of fucking room to talk.
But I'd rather like older women than be fat and a manchild
I'm not sure what any of this shit has to do with what I said.

Did I hurt your precious little feelings be pointing out how retarded religious people are?
Poster child for insecure manchildren
Attacking me because you don't like what I said, instead of discussing the central point of the argument, like a child. This explains a lot of your mommy issues.
lol
Looks like I win.

GG
But at the end of the day, God still loves me.
I doubt it.

Not really, it's just that some of them like to be zealots. I get along with a lot of religious people because it's just not a topic we talk about in casual conversation in this country.

In a strict sense, converting people is important to Christianity, sure. But most of the actual Christians I meet IRL hardly even bring up their faith. And while I definitely agree with the concept of atheism, atheists are usually a lot more annoying than Christians.

On the whole, I think it's just the vocal minorities that skew everyone's opinions on either side. Zealots are annoying regardless of their affiliations.

The problem is that the quiet majority isn't doing anything to distance itself from that vocal minority, acting as tacit approval.

Uh, it shouldn't have to. Just because two people are Christians doesn't mean that one is responsible for how the other acts.

I'm guessing United States. In which case, you're correct. Most countries that aren't the US consider taking about how much someone earns, politics, or religion to be very intrusive, deeply personal questions.

This right here is truth. I'm English, and there are dirty crappy English people. I don't control them, so I'm not to blame for them.

I didn't say they're responsible, just that if you don't make it known you don't approve of their actions, you're going to get lumped in together.

There's usually plenty of evidence that they disagree. Most people give away very obvious cues that they disagree from visual cues of disapproval to sighs and arguments. I do think people need to stand up for what they believe is right though.

Not sure if this is a troll thread, but have you ever tried to burn a closed book, especially one as thick and with a cover such as the bible?

Because there's no circulating air and heat in between the pages to fuel the fire, you will only succeed in burning the cover and edges of the paper before the fire wears off. It's a well known fact that after housefires, thicker books are generally one of the few things that can be retrieved afterwards.

Here's a good read on it.

And here's a video showing a guy trying to deliberately burn a bible and repeatedly pouring lighter fluid on it with absolutely no success at getting the book to burn until he opened them up and stacked them.

If the logical positivists got anything right, it's that propositions involving God are non-cognitive.

God leaves signs of faith all over. If you guys choose not to see them, that's on you. I forgive you, you better just hope God does too.
I want no forgiveness from a God that expects my faith on poor evidence.
