The argument of "there are no atheists in foxholes" is just retarded. Yes, people, who are afraid of death pray. Of course they pray, when they KNOW, that they will never again feel the wind. They will never again taste a food. They will NEVER talk to their loved ones and obviously, at that point, you will beg anyone including beings you don't believe in, just to find a way to avoid it.

But, all of that is rooted in fear of death. Something, that by the same level of pub logic, no christian should be afraid to begin with.

@LukeAlmighty You should have approached this from the angle of people who faced death without praying and without caving to the pressure. Those people exist. The counterexample is much better than the cope, which is what you sent.

Nah.
Fear of death is real. Who would have thought? 🤷‍♂️ But fear of death is hardly a proof of God.

@LukeAlmighty Praying isn't proof of God. But it is disproof of the sincerity of one's atheism. Looking at how people act when the chips are on the table for real is a great way to read who they truly are.

Under that kind of stress, most people are willing to trust in anything. Literally anything, if there is a .001% chance it might save their ass.

I seriously fail to see, how the fact, that you can break people is some gatcha for you.

@LukeAlmighty Well if they're willing to try anything, why not try some hail Mary bro science bullshit instead? That sort of thing turns out to be correct more often than people want to admit. From the perspective of an atheist, a real one, that sort of thing should be a go-to when the situation is serious and conventional thought isn't sufficient
