Comair FO awakens

[mynameisjim]

Word is, he had been reading the Bible regularly in the recent past. God regularly uses tragedy to bring Glory to himself.

Are you saying the FO survived because he recently read the bible? I guess the other 49 people haven't read it recently. I bet they wish they were airline pilots with a free bible in every room. Had they read it they would have survived as well.

Why don't you take 2 minutes tomorrow, and everyday thereafter, to read the Bible.

.

ROTFLMAO! Yeah....I'll be right on that.

Foofighter: great post! Some of the biggest "religious" people I have met have been THE BIGGEST F'ING HIPPOCRITES IN THE WORLD.

I take two minutes a day to whack it!

There is a God, as said before

Your opinion....

Even Steven Hawking has admitted that some intelligent force had to have started the big bang.

 

[capt. megadeth]

I think you meant to say, all we can do is stay current, get enough rest, and avoid complacency at all costs and understand that mistakes happen and we should learn from this one and hope this pilot can live a somewhat normal life

Amen bro!

Umm, yeah. What if he was reading the USAToday that morning instead? What if that newspaper had something un-christian somewhere in the op-ed section, and the capricious big man upstairs opened up a can of smite-all on these poor folks and used the FO as an instrument of His Will?

Yup, just as stupid to think he's alive for reading the Good Book earlier that day.

My favorite letter of all time:
Dear Dr. Laura:

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some of the other specific laws and how to follow them:

When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odour for the Lord - Lev.1:9. The problem is my neighbours. They claim the odour is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness - Lev.15:19- 24. The problem is, how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offence.

Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighbouring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?

I have a neighbour who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?

A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination - Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this?

Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here?

Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die?

I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? - Lev.24:10-16. Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we
do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)

I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am confident you can help.

Jim


Ya know, it's just absurd. This guy has one HECK of a tough life ahead of him, and he has to find peace. I hope he recovers.

You are beyond ignorant...take your argument to NASA, who conducted so darn many studies on this issue that the evidence is conclusive. Fatigue goes beyond how much rest you were scheduled for. Circadian rhythmms, time zone changes, light, and other factors make the equation...not a determined amount of "rest".
But I guess in all your 1250 hours that you know more than NASA....

You're kidding me - you're really going to argue that these guys were fatigued at the time of the accident? I don't deny fatigue exists, I categorically deny that it was a factor in the Comair accident.

They *MIGHT* have been fatigued by noon, but they never got to noon, so we'll never know.

Are you not reading? Fatigue can be caused and related to more things than just time and rest periods. Even humidity levels can cause fatigue!

BTW, we are not kidding you.

I hear you, most guys I fly with talk all holy roller christian sh$t and I sit back and don't say anything...then they start bashing the Jews, Blacks, - only they use the K and N words oggling the ass on the flight attendant and flirting while they have a wife and kid at home....I'm not impressed at all by this so called "religious" group...

That's got nothing to do with Christianity.

 

[foofighter145]

No but they represent it and at about an 85% majority

Joe Cespedes has let me down.....

Joe Pesci.....Never!!!

Carlin is by far one of the best modern philosophers in our day, and if people would quit hiding behind thier crosses, and prayer mats...they might actually see the light in something else and quit wasting time for an afterlife to never come...

And no one needs to pray for me......Im fine, football season is starting!!

the funny ironic thing with you "non-believers" is how LOUDLY you scream when someone mentions their faith, all the while pointing fingers at them. seems like the actions of someone who has a pretty big question mark in their lives.......enjoy football

 

[Matty4me]

Are you kidding me? Are you that ignorant?

There is no god. Why can't people undestand that things/accidents just happen due to error? The 4 year old little girl was run over by a car because of the driver not because it's a god's will. The crash in LEX happened because a mistake was made not because of a god's will. Did s god plan to kill all those folks? Ridiculous! It has nothing to do with a god. Belief in a god goes back thousands of years just to explain things that could not be explained at that time but we are smarter now and know better. People just don't want to be responsible whether good or bad.

How many of you god fearing people are really angry at this post at this moment? Just think about it for 2 minutes tomorrow......

To the posting above:
You sir/ma'am are an idiot. The one individual that needs prayer is you. The F/O is getting the prayer that he needs from others. What is ashame is that you believe that evolution is beginning, man is supreme, we did this...
The problem is that you have not been touched by the Holy Spirit. Hell needs people like you.

 

[mynameisjim]

The F/O is getting the prayer that he needs from others.

Are you saying the FO needs prayer in order to survive? Will god kill him/let him die if people don't pray for him? Is survival just one big popularity contest?
