Guess nobody other than a Christian has ever been in a plane. Or maybe only Christians get in plane crashes because the others have prayers that work?

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.
One Dot = One Prayer
Either prayers don't work, or they make god super duper angry.
Ever read the Bible? God is a sadistic, genocidal monster. He probably laughs at plane crashes.
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. ?
"Black box" usually refers to both the Flight Data Recorder and the Cockpit Voice Recorder as a nebulous whole - some FDRs are also configured to record pilot mics as well but that's not standard.
That's what satanic media wants you to think. But actually, everyone on a plane has a microphone and all the audio goes directly to the big black cube in the middle, to be recorded and stored forever.
They ask you to stow the tray if something happens because the microphone is on the underside of the tray and hears you better that way
that makes sense
That plus pilots' mics.
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. 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 always either "God works in mysterious ways" or "It was a test from God".
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.
That's what is called codependency
it's like removing the tariffs to reduce grocery prices

I heard one black box where the pilot’s final words were just a very resigned, almost conversational, “Goddamnit.”
Strong chance my final words will be "Oh shoot, shoooot." Even tho I swear like a sailor, if it's really bad, I go for clean language.
I heard one where the pilot exclaimed "we're doing it!" [or something similar] as he managed to fly the 747 inverted, seconds before hitting the ocean.

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?
I've gone bungie jumping; no revelations, just adrenaline.
Fallen out of trees; sudden stop hurts like fuck.
Jumped into water from at least 10m; wet, fun.
Other drops at various speed and landings. No ancient forgotten knowledge acquired.
All data I've collected personally indicates you do not get revelations at less than a 50m drop.
Note: not peer reviewed, sample size small, subject survived all falls with no more than minor injuries.
To me, the logic is similar to "I can PROVE God exists. Look at the way this banana fits in my hand... "
I did not think you were going to say hand lol

Doing my morning walk through the churches in my neighborhood and there's two old churches side by side, both rocking out, one sort of blues riffs, one a little more traditional rock. And as I often do, I stood for a moment taking it in - this is the Southern culture I think is fascinating and rich and... then I realize the blues one is now just doing a call and refrain "I don't need no - evidence" over and over, and my dog's like "let's get the fuck out of here" and so we did.
But it's cute for a second if you don't try to focus in on it. This is how religion should be taken in, and then hustle your ass along.
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.

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