#God Answers Prayer? Rain Forecast For Atlanta |
http://www.weather.com/outlook/recreation/boatandbeach/local/USGA0028?from=search_city
Note the forecast after the governor's prayer meeting.
Reminds me of that old Ziggy cartoon where he is watching the sunrise in the
distance. Ziggy is clapping and shouting "Go God!"

Is it your position that without God, that great cosmic rooster, there
would be no sunrise?
You have an astonishingly accurate grasp of the obvious.
and you have an amazing grasp of the inane.
If the earth stopped spinning tonight, there would be no sunrise, even
if Gawd had nothing to do with it.
You, OTOH, do NOT have an astonishingly accurate grasp of the obvious.
So, you're saying it would only stop if Gawd Himself personally put
his hand on it and stopped it?
Has anyone done an astrological chart on George, or cast some sticks,
or studied chicken entrails?
Wasn't PJ the expert on that sort of stuff? Say, speaking of PJ,
why'd she dump you, Jamieson? Did she go looking for someone that had
a job?

I think the people of Georgia would prefer some rain to no rain.
I like the way that the article ends:
"The rainfall came two days after Gov. Sonny Perdue led a prayer service on
the steps of the state Capitol to beg the heavens for an end to the
drought."
Cool.

It drizzled. There wasn't anywhere near enough rain to
end the drought. And, if the prayer had been answered,
it would have poured immediately. It didn't. The prayer
was a bust. Not cool.

He seems to be under the impression that if you go ten years without
rain, but rain falls from the sky one day, it's no longer a drought.

Then the prayer was not answered, as the drought has continued. As
anyone who has lived in drought conditions knows (such as here in
southern California, a few days of rain -- even heavy rain -- do not
constitute the end of said drought.
It's a wonderful life.
Irrelevancy noted.

It can delude a mindless theist to conclude that "prayer" had something to

Not necessarily. A little rain in the middle of a drought can be
dangerous.
How so?
Slick roads. During a drought, oil builds up on roads and combines with
dust. Add a little water and you get the southern version of road ice.
Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!

LOL! That's the best you guys can do?
All things considered, I think the citizens of Georgia would prefer the
inconvenience of slick roads if it accompanies rain. It sure beats the
alternative of an indefinite drought.

Being a resident of Georgia, I sure do. But that amount of rain did next to
nothing. Thank your god for fucking nothing....or next to it. Some big
powerful god. *rolls eyes*

Go ahead and laugh until it's your car spinning out of control and
killing a child standing by the road.

"Inconvenience."
Wet, oily roads can be deadly.
alternative of an indefinite drought.
That's the point. The drought continues indefinitely, despite the small
amount of rain. Meanwhile, the roads *do* become dangerous, your
laughter at the potential suffering of others notwithstanding.

This is exactly why atheists make up such a minute percentage of the
population. Your arguments are so unbelievably STUPID that they don't
appeal to anyone with common sense.
viz:
1. They pray for rain
2. They get rain
3. You ***** that it makes the roads slick
Maybe they should have prayed for more drought so that the roads would never
get slick?

Typical evasion.
Getting back to the main point: The prayer for the end of the drought
was not answered...
...unless you want to claim that the answer
was "No," which is the typical Christian response when they don't get
what they prayed for.
Maybe they should have prayed for more drought so that the roads would never
get slick?
Maybe they should not waste energy praying and instead focus on solving
problems in ways that actually have effect?
It's not *I* who claims that it's your god-thingy that decides when
prayers are answered. That's part of the doctrine you lay claim to.
And it's *you* who -- in all your hubris -- are now claiming that your
god-thingy has responded to this particular prayer.
Do you have a subscription to the Divine Listserv?
And if you are correct, then the only interpretation one can have is
that your god-thingy thinks that Atlanta *deserves* exactly a wee bit of
water, continually shrinking reservoirs, and slick roads.

They prayed for rain. They got rain. There's more rain in the forecast.
Figure it out, Beavis.

The rain was already predicted in the weather forecast
before the stupid prayerfest. You figure it out, Butthead.

They prayed for rain.
Not according to the excerpt of the article you're so fond to repeat.
They got rain. There's more rain in the forecast.
Still not what they prayed for, according to the excerpt.
Figure it out, Beavis.
What does that make you?
