Family Rescued in Pacific After Sailing 'Where God Led Us'

[crooked_halo]

A leap of faith that sent an Arizona family bound for the South Pacific in a sailboat has returned them in an airplane after a harrowing ordeal at sea that saw them adrift and nearly out of food in one of the remotest stretches of ocean on the planet

nhf this child endangerment

p.s. don't read the comments at the source, there's at least one person in there lamenting the fact that mentally ill people exist

Gastonguay told the AP that she never thought the family was going to die: "We believed God would see us through."

Probably because he felt bad for the innocent kids you took on your Small World boat to hell and didn't feel they deserved to die because they were born from a couple of chucklefucks.

As hilarious as most of this story is, I seriously hope those kids are taken away faster than you can say CPS. They deserve better.

It's a world of taxes, a world of tears
It's a world of gays, and a world of fears
That's too much we can bear
And it's time we're aware
It's a small world after all

It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small, small, woooooorld

Tag added. Thank you! I agree, I definitely thought this was satire.

The AP said that part of the reason they left is that they didn't want their tax dollars used for abortions. I don't think that they have bothered to check out the facts and were fueled by Christian paranoia / conspiracy theories.
