Hello, everyone. I'm not trying to attack anyone. Let me begin with that. It's just that someone pointed it out and I find the same thing very strange among atheists and others who don't believe in the Christian God.
Of course, those who do not believe in God behave that way. Sometimes, they'll make a point of their nonbelief, expressing it freely (which, of course, is no problem). Same thing for other religious people, such as Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, etc. Yet, have you ever noticed that, in times of crisis, these same people will exclaim, "Oh, my God!"? There was also something on Discovery Times with American soldiers about to pass through Afghanistan. Before, they were smoking and cursing as they usually did. After hearing about the dangers in Afghanistan, the same began to pray to God for protection.
What do you think? Why would some nonbelievers fall back on God in desperate times, and why would atheists exclaim "Oh, my God!" when their lives are threatened?
I'm serious.
