NEW YORK - In the largest study of its kind, researchers found that having people pray for heart bypass surgery patients had no effect on their recovery. In fact, patients who knew they were being prayed for had a slightly higher rate of complications.

Have you ever noticed that there are never any anti-religion forwarded emails? There's always an atheist professor who is 'shamed' at the end, but it's never the other way around.

If I'm wrong, I'd love to see some of the 'opposing' FWDs.

And just so you know, that was sarcasm. The reason there are no opposing FWDs because everyone knows that studies like the one done in your link are bogus.

Have you ever noticed how there is more proof FOR the existence of god than there is AGAINST? It's so blindingly obvious that you can study it all you want, but it will never make sense to you.

...it did have an effect then, just not the desired one. I don't know, shoddy journalism

[Wally Pipp]

Good to see money that otherwise would end up in the hands of the money-hungry lowlifes of the Heart Foundation being spent on a decent cause.

there are no anti religion emails because people who dont belive in a god dont give a damn

It's because god prevents such emails from being created. Everyone gets the idea, but god prevents the idea from ever materializing. That is the power of our lord.

[vbcode1980]

Yes, the Lord works in mysterious ways...

[mendhak]

Nobody wants to argue my logic.

[NotLKH]

It's because the flying spaghetti monster prevents such arguements from ever happening. Everyone wants to argue your logic, but the flying spaghetti monster prevents the arguement from ever materializing. That is the power of the flying spaghetti monster.

[big blue alien]

Nobody wants to argue my logic.

Blame it on your god, he wont let us

[Something Else]

It seems that the flying spaghetti monster IS the one true god.
And that global warming is inversely proportional to the number of pirates in the world.

[FunkyDexter]

Yep, I myself am a devout Pastafarian

[nemaroller]

Now why would you come up with a pasta god, when you could have something more interesting like Eva Longoria...

[si_the_geek]

God is intentionally not that attractive - just think of all the extra hassle from admirers.

How would he have time to make the noodles if he looked that good??

She would have small feet, which let her stand closer to the sink.

Where she can make noodles.

[zaza]

Eva Longoria has XY chromosomes, as does Jamie Lee Curtis.

[mendhak]

Oh yeah? So does your DAD.

[zaza]

But your avatar, apparently, does not.











Or it's really cold

[mendhak]

I assure you, it's not cold.

How much did he get for it ? I want to pawn mine too.

[si_the_geek]

How much did he get for it ? I want to pawn mine too.

If it's christianity, I'll give you $0.03.
If it's islam, I'll give you $0.01.

Others on request.

[Wally Pipp]

Why's islam cheaper?

[si_the_geek]

It's all down to simple economics dear chap.

In order to keep the business going I need to be able to sell on anything I buy.. as I dont know anyone who wants to buy islam (at the moment anyway) I need to ensure that my potential losses are minimised.

[Wally Pipp]

oo err, yer a bees knees man?

[si_the_geek]

Well I prefer wasps knees, but I'll go for bees if they're all thats available.

[mendhak]

I'd sell Zoroastrianism for $99.99, because it's got the coolest name.

[nemaroller]

I'm not selling Eva... so don't ask.

[mendhak]

Remember when Cameron Diaz used to be attractive?
