That's right atheists, don't let your obsessions ruin everything for you. That's what theist obsessions are for....
plousia commented on The ecologist who found his wedding ring
As a fellow Christian, I can assure you that prayer/God's power and so-called "natural" means like this guy's skills aren't in any way incompatible. As Christians, we simply recognize God's sovereign rule over all of those things, and our dependence on him. I have similar stories that I'm sure atheists could pick apart--cynicism will stop at nothing--but in which I recognized a power beyond me at work. That's all he's saying....
Bryon Schwartz commented on The ecologist who found his wedding ring
2 years ago in Canada we were playing frisbee and I felt something leave my hand (other than the frisbee) but didn't give a thought to it. A few minutes later I saw some fellows with metal detectors in the water and asked what they were looking for. They said, "coins and rings". Immediately I looked at my and and sure enough it was gone. We looked with but didn't find it. The next night after work We went back armed with a rake and snorkel mask. The metal detector guys were also there still looking for their hidden treasure....
takeshi commented on The ecologist who found his wedding ring
Let's assume that a higher power did help this gentleman find his wedding ring. What's wrong with that? It's still an entertaining story about a guy who found his wedding ring, and if he wants to believe it was because of prayer, it's fine by me. That said, there are WAY more important prayers for God to answer....
