    That maxim, “There are no atheists in foxholes,” it’s not an argument against atheism — it’s an argument against foxholes.

        Praying in that situation splits your attention from staying the fuck alive and is not recommended.

        Yeah if you account for all the wank sessions you were broadcasting to your creator, the reason you’re still alive is either proof of there not being a god, or a very perverted one.

        Imagine how shocked the world would be if it turns out the Arabic word for God comes from a black box recording that got swung back in time after a plane crash, with the last bit of the recording being stuck...

        that last bit of recording? copilot waking up right before the crash, calling out to the pilot called Allan, but halfway through the word it turns into a scream. All-AAAAAAAH! BOOM.

        And the whole world is just stuck on this otherwise insignificant fact. Never mind that someone just dug up carbon-dated 2000-ish year old (carbon-dated) contemporary technology, proving time travel is possible, or that people 2000-ish years ago managed to somehow make that tech work enough to influence the third largest language in a very significant manner... No, it's the fact that the Arabic word for God came from a guy named Allan.

      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      Note: not peer reviewed, sample size small, subject survived all falls with no more than minor injuries.

    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?

        In some cases it does work. Believe can cause wonder healings. Not because of supernatural but because of subconscious.

      It’s not aimed at anyone in particular,

      But a prayer is directly aimed at one thing. I understand that there are literally hundreds of Gods, but each individual would typically only target one.

        “Allahu akbar” could even be roughly translated in intention as “oh my god”, or “dear lord”, or “HOLY SHIT!”. Yes literal translation is “God is great”, but what the fuck is “Oh Jesus in heaven” if not that.

    • glorkon@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      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.

        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).

    “Are all our prayers answered? Yes, they are.

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.”

    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.

    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.
