Just paused it for a second because I knew it couldn't go anywhere good after she said "we prayed for atheists everywhere."
I can't believe I'm about to watch the rest of this...
Paused again...so wait her argument is that God loves us so much he sent a HUGE earthquake to wake us up. Uhm...there are several flaws in that argument darling...and I'm pretty sure that while Japan has a small Christian community it is not ENTIRELY filled with atheists...so why did he pick THEM to shake?
Sigh, unpause.
"I'm going to be praying even harder" OH GOD SHE'S GOING TO CAUSE MORE DEVASTATION AND LOSS OF LIFE! QUICK SOMEONE STOP HER!
HER ARGUMENT MAKES NO SENSE WTH! *bashes head against table*
You know what I'm going to get on my knees and pray for? For the families and friends of those affected by the earthquake. Isn't THAT what we are supposed to be praying for?
I seriously can't watch this without pausing every five seconds. There is just WAY TOO MUCH WRONG WITH THIS!
Guess God is about to start his world tour of waking up atheists?
Well see the difference is you'd be praying to help those in need, or what we call the Right Reason to Pray.
She's praying for the reason of it rationalizes a completely unjustified and sanctimonious sense of superiority built off the suffering of others. Otherwise known as the EXACT KIND OF PRAYING JESUS SAID DON'T DO IN THE BIBLE HE MADE THIS VERY CLEAR MY PRIEST READ US THE PASSAGE ALL THE TIME HOW DO YOU FUCK THAT UP? way of praying.
As a Roman Catholic - and someone who is absolutely disgusted by this video - I'm offended by your comment. I know my denomination has its issues, but please don't tar us all with the same brush the idiot in the video is using.
I can understand not wanting to be lumped in with the few loud ones who give religons a bad name, and I want to say that I'm really, truly sorry. I have my own problems with Roman Catholic individuals, but I get that they don't represent a whole group and I shouldn't have said that. I apologize for being a bitch. :(
It's easy for one person to turn you off an entire group with their behavior - been there, done that, unfortunately. Still, thank you for the apology, and don't worry about it - we're good. :)
She seemed to be holding back laughter in a few places, but I call Poe's Law. She knows the fundie language really well ("encourage(d)," etc). If she's a troll, she's a good one. Totally poor taste, though, I agree. If I were betting on it, though, I'd say she's for real.
