I've found my calling

Yeah, Pilate said "Good lord, thats disgusting," and like a good pre-christian, executed him to redeem the city with morality. Sadly, Jesus had 133t h4x and was related to the Server admin and got a free rezz.
 
If God doesn't exist then how do you guys explain miracles?

You mean the tons of miracles that have happened in the last two hundred years, or so, when we had things like documented evidence and rational thought being combined to form a new sort of inquiry?

Like that magic pool of water that people go to have themselves cured, the one that the Catholic Church has claimed to bring about 50 'miracle cures', but that actually demonstrates an even *lower* rate of spontaneous remission for its visitors' diseases compared to just sitting at home?

How about the 'miracle' of conclusive and perfectly sound evidence for the actual existence of Jesus - no, not the Josephus texts that were forged centuries afterwards by Christians with hilarious incompetence, *real* accounts - and consistent documentation of his works and words?

The world could use quite a few miracles right now, if not for the sake of happiness and comfort then at least for the benefit of whatever religion there may be that actually has truth behind it. Sadly, it seems that the only way to have miracles is to have ignorant people who are so desperate for anything good that they'll gladly ignore real explanations for the sake of reinforcement for their delusions.

People deny medicine for the sick because God should help them. People kill each other because God has chosen them. People mutilate their children in horrifying ways because they think it will please God. God does not stop this. If you were to take thousands of people captive and subject them to the horrors of beer coffee, and say that Christopher Walken told you to, he would surely deliver upon you a most righteous bitchslap that would be heard around the world; why can God do no better than Christopher Walken?
