    Yeah bitch god saved you but not the thousands of children starving to death or people murdered or other people who died from cancer or heart disease or drunk drivers or just general blood loss.

    You selfish, ignorant, narcissist.

    Yeah! Fuck you for having faith in something that makes dealing with a really fucked up situation easier on you, you ignorant cunt!

    Actually, yeah. Having faith in the idea god is totally on your side and not on the side of the dirty brown people is bullshit.

    I don't think that is a really goosey thing to say or think, but at the same time I realize that religious faith can help someone get through things.

    And also the doctors themselves probably said the same thing, I would bet money on it.

    Pros to sleeping more than 5 hours in one night:

    More well rested, able to wake up easier

    Cons to sleeping more than 5 hours in one night:

    Didn't get to stay up and do things I wanted to do
    My back aches like crazy

    Overall, I don't know whether it was positive or negative

    fun exercise: Try asking a christian why god let her die like that and watch them squirm trying to avoid the "her faith wasn't strong enough" or "she's a sinner"

    if someone actually says one of those my respect for them would actually grow

    Well I mean of course it was the doctors who saved her, but it probably helps her to think that it was an act of god. Taking that away from someone feels like a shitty thing to do.

    I don't think it is a strawman at all; but then again I grew up surrounded by all the LOLfaith stereotypes.

    That's not what someone who would answer that question believes, though (necessarily).

    Often it's, "God took her because her work for him here was done".

    Which I'll grant is a bit tough to believe if you don't also have the faith that comes with that belief... but to assume that anyone who believes in god is also a spiteful person who deep down thinks people die young because their faith wasn't strong enough is a bit of a stretch in the majority of cases.
