Did you hear about Makenzie Wethington, the 16 year old who survived a 3500 foot fall even though her parachute failed to open correctly? Well, she's apparently gonna be a-ok after a whole lot of rehab and has already started walking (short distances with help).
She apparently "hurt her liver, broke her pelvis, lumbar spine in her lower back, a shoulder blade and several ribs and a tooth."
Her older sister said, "God caught her."
Well, God, that was a pretty shitty "catch."
First of all, God could have done a myriad of other things that would have allowed the girl to land UNHARMED.
Even beyond that, I'm more interested as to why God would save the life of a teenager doing something that carries a certain amount of risk but didn't save a bunch of little kids at Sandy Hook. That's fucked up.
And don't give me any of the "not our place to know God's thinking" or "all part of God's plan" bullshit... if he takes the time to save a girl who is choosing to do something dangerous for fun but not lift a finger to save some children, whose only crime was GOING TO SCHOOL, he's an asshole. There is no morality there.
Fuck God.
