[Replying to "A righteous person would survive a head-on car wreck?"]A righteous man would have angels watching over him. He would have protection. He would remain intact. Of course the question is, just how many people are actually righteous before God.

Put a group of True Believers on an Elbonian Airlines jet, along with a group of satanists.
When the plane crashes, you would expect all the Righteous to survive, while the satanists become some kind of lumpy hairy puree.
Here is a good opportunity to actually prove your premise, Johnny! Gather all the plane-crash statistics, and interview the Righteous that survived.
Publish your data in a legible fashion, kthx.
Here are some headlines, which tend to disprove this idiot:
"Retired Pratt City Pastor Rhodes Dies in Car Crash near Fultondale"
"Prosser Pastor, Son Killed in Arkansas Car Accident"
"Fort Wayne Youth Pastor Dies in Car Crash"
"Long-Time Burlington Pastor Dies In Car Accident"
"Texas Baptist Leader Dies in Car Crash"
And on and on and on it goes...
You know, if God is so good, he might give us rules that SOMEONE can actually follow.
Otherwise he isn't very... good.
"He would remain intact."
Sure, when you're in an amusement park having fun with dodge'em cars. On the other hand in real life traffic...
One of the sicker aspects of Fundy beliefs:
Anyone that suffers personal or family tragedy must have offended God somehow. How you can belong to a church that says such things is beyond my understanding, not because I don't know why but because I do.
You think you're better then even your bretern, you think you're special, you're an imaginary God's favorite.
Not so much. Let me explain to you the beeeesssssst example I know of of a righteous man -- well, he's the Righteous Man. Supernatural's Dean Winchester. Destined to be Michael's sword and all that bullshit.
Allow me to list the shit he goes threw in Show, S1-S5, when the Apocalypse was averted:
Lost his mom when he was four to a demon.
Yeah, this is the Righteous Man. Y'know, the one who's the friggin' hero of the story? Does it look to you like that status helped him any?
"A righteous man would have angels watching over him. He would have protection. He would remain intact. Of course the question is, just how many people are actually righteous before God."
Richard 'Hamster' Hammond drove a jet-powered car on "Top Gear" at 288 MPH. The incident proves conclusively that he must be a 'righteous' person, amirite?
To my knowledge, he's not religious.

Some say, that one of his eyes is a teste. And that the other is so huge, it's the size of a spacehopper; the fact said opto-gonad is his right eye, means he's a Left eous person. All we know is... he's called The Stig!
why don't you ram your car into a heavy duty cement wall? Since you are "obviously righteous before God" you won't get hurt right? Go on, do it, prove your religion correct. Make sure you drive that car into that wall as fast as you can, and don't wear a seatbelt.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
