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.

Either prayers don’t work, or they make god super duper angry.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 months ago
Ever read the Bible? God is a sadistic, genocidal monster. He probably laughs at plane crashes.
daannii@lemmy.world 3 months ago
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. ?
Warl0k3@lemmy.world 3 months ago
“Black box” usually refers to both the Flight Data Recorder and the Cockpit Voice Recorder - some (all?) FDRs are also configured to record pilot mics as well.
Nalivai@lemmy.world 3 months ago
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.
ignotum@lemmy.world 3 months ago
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
Illecors@lemmy.cafe 3 months ago
That plus pilots’ mics.

No one laughs at god in a hospital. No one laughs at god in a war…
We are laughing at your dumb post because it references satan, as if satan, a demigod, needs a news channel to trick you into defying an omniscient god.

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.

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
bitchkat@lemmy.world 3 months ago
They probably blame the devil for putting them in the situation.
fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
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.
GuyLivingHere@lemmy.ca 3 months ago
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).
imetators@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 months ago
It is always either “God works in mysterious ways” or “It was a test from God”.
bitchkat@lemmy.world 3 months ago
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.

glorkon@lemmy.world 3 months 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.
limelight79@lemmy.world 3 months ago
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.

I heard one black box where the pilot’s final words were just a very resigned, almost conversational, “Goddamnit.”
BanMe@lemmy.world 3 months ago
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.
n0respect@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I heard one where the pilot exclaimed “we’re doing it!” as he managed to fly the 747 inverted, seconds before hitting the ocean.

Please give me the sauce. I need more information on this
RagingRobot@lemmy.world 3 months ago
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?
HikingVet@lemmy.ca 3 months ago
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.

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.
Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 3 months ago
There’s a bias for everything. Maybe even one that contradicts the bias you’re precipitating. I dunno. Whatever
MisterFrog@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I dunno, seems pretty rock solid that the majority of people aren’t praying to the Christian god, seeing as nowhere even close to a majority of people on earth are Christian.
There are all sorts of religions out there, and many who don’t believe in religion at all.
I do agree that all humans are prone to bias, that’s why it’s so important to be aware of it in order to mitigate it.
The OOP making some stupid religious claims, definitely is not aware.
lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 months ago
Same for the other side. All the countless times where God miraculously saves the plane in the last moment lost to history. No news report, no one will check the black box. It’s just another Tuesday

IDK. I’ve been unironically referring to LLMs as “the Devil’s machine” or simply “The Devil” lately. :D
I mean, if you use them, they do steal your soul, so it checks out.

ComradeRachel@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 months ago
Ngl some are kinda funny. Only a handful seem to be related to a God tho.
NABDad@lemmy.world 3 months ago
There were some things that could be interpreted as prayers, but the vast majority were not.
finitebanjo@lemmy.world 3 months ago
The ones who prayed to Satan were saved.

“Are all our prayers answered? Yes, they are. What people who ask that question often don’t realize is that sometimes the answer to our prayer is “no.” Dear God, please make my mother not be crazy. God’s answer: no. 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.”

GeorgimusPrime@lemmy.world 3 months ago
What’s the difference between “no” and no answer?
sangriaferret@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
Well, she clearly states that God never gives no answer. You see, God is omniscient. He knows what you have prayed for and you, by knowing that he is omniscient, know that He knows. Thus, if you don’t get what you have prayed for then you can safely assume, despite God not explicitly stating as such, that His answer is no.
FreshParsnip@lemmy.ca 3 months ago
Yes, a large percentage of the population is religious, that doesn’t make their religion true
Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 months ago
Who else are they gonna pray to? Joe Pesci?
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
Odin, Amun-Ra, Perun, Sol Invictis, Jupitor, Zeus, Vishnu, Deified Alexander of Macedonia, Et cetera there are lots of gods outside of fucken Yahweh to choose from.

I’d only pray to Odin if I was worried about frost giants.

I’d hedge my bets too if I knew I had mere minutes to live. I stand to lose nothing and I gain comfort at the end, regardless of whether or not I am rewarded with some kind of afterlife.

According to the most recent studies, it turns out the name of God is
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH”
tomiant@piefed.social 3 months ago
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?

Since final reports are usually public, someone with enough time could go check.
hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 months ago
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?
