There is a scene in the show St Denis Medical where a doctor claims to be rationalist and an atheist and then during a complicated surgery he's seen praying to God and he says to the camera "there are no atheis in the foxholes". It pisses me off when shows do that or people use that excuse because it's not true: I'm the emergency contact for an elderly friend who's an atheist and she has strict do not resuscitate orders. Atheists don't have deathbed conversions.

Rumors Of my demise have been somewhat exaggerated. Holy ****! I thought you were dead! Welcome back! 
Those are words that everyone would love to hear.

Not Lindsey Graham's, though.

Some arsewipe on millionaire fraudster Franklin Graham's Instagram
site posted this sickening comment re Lindsey...
Quote:What a sad day for our country. He was God’s representative for us.
He can’t be replaced. Thank you Lord for his time with us. Be with his
family as well as our country.
And also this drivel...
Quote:Thank you, Franklin Graham, for always pointing people to the truth of God,
even in the darkest times such as this. Praying for comfort for Lindsey Graham's
sister and family in this time of loss.
I'm a creationist... I believe that man created God.

My wife want's an autopsy, just in case of Russians.
No I'm not, but I do have tendencies.
