An erroneous comment I overheard yesterday whilst awaiting my usual Sunday Lunch Take-away of a Hamburger with salad and grilled onion.
2 guys entered the shop in suits and ties, they started discussing what the Sermon they heard at Church was all about, when one of them said, " You do realize that the Pastor was 100% correct when he stated that there no people so superstitious as those who are Godless people."
Thankfully my lunch was ready and my name was called out, because IF I had to stay thee any longer the chances of my peeing my pants out of sheer and unadulterated raucous laughter would have been almost overwhelming.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I wonder what their reaction would have been if their number was called out and it was 666?

Oh how often I wish that it would in such situations...LOL.
@Triphid I had a friend and neighbour who got a backdated sickness benefit cheque for £666. The problem came because she was suffering from paranoid schizophrenia. She phoned them up pleading to change the amount (even if it was a bit less) or at least make it 2 cheques. Btw she was a god believer too although not a churchgoer.
The person who said that is a perfect example of a weak minded person.

My blood would be boiling overhearing that conversation. I wouldn't have been able to think of a comment to make if given the chance.

I may have arrived at a 'come-back' comment except I was too busy shaking my head in dis-belief AND not wishing to spoil my lunch also.
Jaysus, the guys have a very weak sense of what superstition is. Leave them be. No point arguing with them.

Yes, there is NO cure or Remedy for Stupidity.
Superstition-_- " believing in things u DO NOT UNDERSTAND" and this is endemic in any religion.
Leaving those people to thier ignorance is an
action necessary to perserve your SANITY.
I occasionally witness such ○ , but prefer truth
and facts to underpin my life.
Thanks

Lol, I hear ya.
About what they said. First of all, no pastor is 100% right about anything, because they won't say they're wrong or mistaken about anything. Second, all godless people aren't superstitious, I know that because I'm not.
It sounds like you have to overhear some of the same conversations as I do where I live.

ONLY IF the Pastor is a Woman, since we all know that even when a woman is wrong she IS always right.....LOL.
@Triphid lol! Exactly!!! I didn't think about that. I stand corrected.
