I find it funny that Christians do these things, as if God gives a shit. Two football teams each praying before a game that God helps them win, while thousands die around the world.

And they would be wrong.

A positive, hopeful and combative attitude really improves ones odds at surviving such a dire health issue. Be it ebola, cancer, whatever.

And if prayer gets you there then prayer definately helped you recover.

Tough sh*t for them then.  She believed and it worked for her.  That's all that counts.


Modern medicine worked for her.  Many people doubt that her faith or prayers had much to do with her surviving.

It is the positive attitude; not the prayer. A prayer or religious believe can bring a person joy and help, but so can just about anything. Including things which we would define as deviant behavior. But the prayer itself doesn't do anything. A person with a negative outlook who prays constantly will not experience the effect.

I am an atheist, I don't believe there is a God, but I sure the fuck don't think those that do are retarded. In fact, I actually think those that have faith may be better off then those that don't (well most of them anyway, you are coming across as more a zealot).

What an atheist feels regarding the what the nurse credits for her recovery is of no consequence to any of us, just as long as the faithful do not rely on their faith and the power of prayer instead of the scientifically proven protocols in place to keep the rest of us safe from contamination  and instead rely on their version of faith.

This is more of the propaganda media's ongoing effort to sow division everywhere they can in our nation in order to weaken it further making it easier for their masters to destroy it.

Does your daddy know you carry an oligarchy's water for them?

They are certainly stupid, but they know exactly what Islam is. Islam is the religion that wins arguments by killing its opponents and crying ‘Islamophobia’ at anyone who objects.”
I said that Islam is evil. I did NOT say Muslims are evil. Indeed, most of the victims of Islam are Muslims. Especially female ones.”

Christopher Hitchens:

“Demands that you believe the impossible do not lead to peaceful outcomes.”
"If these books were the word of God, particularly with respect to Islam, they must have come when God was having a bad day."
"Unfortunately, even in our free society, we are becoming less free because there now exists a legitimate fear of reprisals from offended Muslims."

Bill Maher:

"Vast numbers of Christians do not believe that if you leave the Christian religion you should be killed for it. Vast numbers of Christians do not treat women as second class citizens."

" But most Muslim people in the world do condone violence just for what you think. They do. First of all they say it. They shout it."

Sam Harris:

"It is time we recognized—and obliged the Muslim world to recognize—that “Muslim extremism” is not extreme among Muslims.  Mainstream Islam itself represents an extremist rejection of intellectual honesty, gender equality, secular politics and genuine pluralism. The truth about Islam is as politically incorrect as it is terrifying: Islam is all fringe and no center. "

"Religious sociopaths kill innocents by the hundreds in the capitols of Europe, blow up the offices of the U.N. and the Red Cross, purposefully annihilate crowds of children gathered to collect candy from U.S. soldiers on the streets of Baghdad, kidnap journalists, behead them, and the videos of their butchery become the most popular form of pornography in the Muslim world, and no one utters a word of protest because these atrocities have been perpetrated “in defense of Islam."

I've always wondered though, why do people always praise God when they get over an illness / injury / someone they care about survives; but we never hear of anyone cursing him when he doesn't come through? Is it that "God works in mysterious ways" thing?

I'm sure a lot of those Africans that died from it also prayed very hard to God. Why weren't they saved?

Yeah, the fact that she lived at least indicates the possibility that the recipient of her entreaties wasn't 'unresponsive'.

To assert such 'unresponsiveness' in the face of evidence to the contrary seems and act of  - wait for it! - faith.

Except for the "atheists are retards / atheists are the taliban" comments and the highfiving from the flock; they're insults that offend no one but reveal the real feelings of the believers about atheists.

And let's not forget the delicious irony of drone believers slamming atheists for their attitude of "intellectual superiority" and then get off on their own moral superiority. Jesus would have called these people out as "white-washed graves", all pretty in their outward form but rotten inside. Yes, christians your love really shines through with threads and comment like these.

I guess Thomas Duncan was praying wrong... or god is racist. What does the hive say?


Didn't pray, or was too far gone to pray.




 
Are you really rationalizing this by saying that ebola, after a point, is stronger than God?



That God can create an Ebola he can't cure?

"Atheists seethe"...



Whatever.  I'm sure the average atheist in America doesn't give a crap either way about what the hookah smoking Ebola nurse did, but some people love to stir the pot and others love to eat it up.

What does the fact that she smokes a hookah have to do with anything?




This forum is circling the toilet.

More proof Atheism is a religion in itself.

How many are actually seething?  .  I'm laughing.  I'm starting to wonder whether those seething atheists are just trolling for ridiculously funny responses.

Except for the "atheists are retards / atheists are the taliban" comments and the highfiving from the flock; they're insults that offend no one but reveal the real feelings of the believers about atheists.

And let's not forget the delicious irony of drone believers slamming atheists for their attitude of "intellectual superiority" and then get off on their own moral superiority. Jesus would have called these people out as "white-washed graves", all pretty in their outward form but rotten inside. Yes, christians your love really shines through with threads and comment like these.
