I am constantly praying to god, and I've never been in a plane crash. Checkmate atheists!
Akasazh@lemmy.world 1 day ago
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.

I say “jesus christ” about a lot of things. Does that count as praying?
abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 1 day ago
Since it has the same effect, it might as well.

I occasionally pray to aliens and I’ve never been in any kind of crash

I have never prayed to Sam Jackson and I’ve only been on one plane that I saw a snake on.
HazardousBanjo@lemmy.world 18 hours ago
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.

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.

To be a party pooper, according to the old testament it’s JHWH or in long, Jehowah.
andros_rex@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Nope, “Jehovah” is a latinization. “Yahweh”/“YHWH” is a more accurate rendering.
sixpants@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I heard one black box where the pilot’s final words were just a very resigned, almost conversational, “Goddamnit.”
n0respect@lemmy.world 1 day 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.

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
glorkon@lemmy.world 1 day 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 19 hours 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.

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 11 hours 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).

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.

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. ?
Nalivai@lemmy.world 23 hours 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 22 hours 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
Warl0k3@lemmy.world 17 hours 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.
Illecors@lemmy.cafe 1 day ago
That plus pilots’ mics.

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.

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

why is this being downvoted
Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 1 day ago
There’s a bias for everything. Maybe even one that contradicts the bias you’re precipitating. I dunno. Whatever
MisterFrog@lemmy.world 1 day 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.

tomiant@piefed.social 1 day 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?

“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.”

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?
BanMe@lemmy.world 1 day ago
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.
