Let the baby go. If god is real, let god save the baby. Then I’ll consider that god might be a real thing. After I exhaust all other explanations. ---

> [@not\_what\_you\_d\_expect](#): > > Let the baby go. If god is real, let god save the baby. Then I’ll consider that god might be a real thing. It does take a certain level of “thoughts & prayers” before god takes notice. We haven’t quite reached that level to get god to care about these babies being murdered during school shootings but I’m sure we are getting close! ---

If I’m skydiving and a baby that can talk and reason like that is next to me, I’m assuming it’s a demon, and needs to fall. ---

Don’t worry, it is. 😆 There’s actually a fad right now to use AI to make images of babies skydiving. So damn weird.

A Baptist minister in Indiana invited a creationist lecturer to give a guest address in his church, and his parishoners and fellow clergy are up in arms. Not because of the content of his lecture about how the universe is 6,000 years old, though. They’re upset because the lecturer has long hair. > **['My heart breaks': Church revolts after 'long-haired hippie' addresses...](https://www.rawstory.com/hippie-church/)** > > The pastor of an Indiana church is profusely apologizing to his flock after he invited a long-haired creationist to deliver a lecture to his congregation.The Christian Post reports that Pastor John Wilkerson of the First Baptist Church of Hammond is... ---
