Lightning: 1, Jesus: 0

Thursday May 24, 2007 @ 10:20 PM (PDT)

So when some nutbag finds grill marks on a toasted cheese sandwich that look like the Virgin Mary, it's hailed as a sign from God, but when lightning fries the ever-living shit out of a statue of Jesus, it's just a random coincidence? I'm so confused.

Of course, Roman Catholic idolism couldn't have anything to do with it. Not to mention other recent 'enlightenments' about the Catholic Church.

That's the advantage of doctrinal faith - only the facts that accord with doctrine need to be considered, thus conveniently saving doctrine itself from ever being questioned.

Secular scientific principles are so backward in that respect. ;o)

Did the nun who stated that it was not an Act of God personally claim that the grilled cheese sandwich WAS an Act of God?

Trying to make your point with a false dichotomy doesn't do you any favors. Everyone already knows that you're an idiot.

There there, muppet. Science will surely one day find a cure for your complete inability to detect sarcasm. It's a little less certain whether they'll ever find a cure for whatever makes you such an annoying dickhead.
