Your body will keep you alive if you were pushed?

Is this similar to the way a woman's body rejects a foetus if she was violently raped?

Who are these people?

Drowning is a gift! All hail the Drowned God!

Lifeguard 1: Dude! Can't you see that kid drowning there! We gotta help him! Lifeguard 2: Let him drown. He chose to go in the water, so he must settle with the consequences. Lifeguard 1: Are you fucking serious! He was pushed in! Lifeguard 2: Then his body will not drown, because it did not choose to go in the water. Lifeguard 1: So you're just gonna let him drown? Lifeguard 2: Precisely. Lifeguard 1: Jesus Christ! Lifeguard 2: Exactly. Lifeguard 1: You're an asshole!

And the moral to the story kids, whoever made this advertisement is one of the biggest assholes ever known, and should be shot. out of a cannon. into the middle of the atlantic. after being brutally raped in the ass by a cricket bat and have his penis/her breasts cut off with a rusty knife.

If we're going to ban religion, we should ban atheism from schools too.

[–]Jvorak[S] 1 point2 points ago

That literally makes it impossible for anyone to be in school without breaking school regulations.

I really didn't get the whole "ban religion from schools" thing till I realized I was atheist. The point is, if the teacher says "let's pray," any non Christians feel excluded. It's more in the interest of not ostracizing people because of creed.
