Report: 32% Of Prayers Deflected Off Passing Satellites

HOUSTON—According to an official NASA report released Saturday, nearly 32 percent of all prayers exiting Earth are deflected off satellites orbiting the planet—ultimately preventing the discharged requests for divine intervention from ever making it to the Gates of Heaven. "After impact with the satellite, these diverted prayers typically plummet back into the atmosphere, where they either burn up or eventually land, unanswered, in a body of water," the report read in part. "Of the remaining prayers, research confirms 64 percent fail to make it past the stratosphere because they aren't prayed hard enough, 94 percent of those with enough momentum are swallowed by a supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy, and 43 percent are eaten by birds." The report concluded that, of the 170 billion prayers issued last month, one made it to God, whose reply was intercepted by a hurricane and incorrectly delivered to a Nigerian man who reportedly did not know what to do with his brand-new Bowflex machine.

Athests vs. Christians

Something we can all agree on.

Baby Bible Bashers

Caught this posted on a few of my regular haunts. What is incredible to me is the obvious intelligence of these children, particularly the first. He is so incredibly articulate for a seven year old and was also evidently brainwashed from a very young age (considering he gave his first sermon at the age of three) that he'll never use it for anything other than spreading dangerous myths and legends as truth.

The brainwashing thing what is so depressing to me. Many of the extreme right wing evangelical Christians with whom I disagree so strongly were taught what they now believe when lacked the intellectual capacity to defend themselves from it by parents who endured the same.
