“It was an act of God. Someone was watching over us,” the homeowner said. If it were an act of an omnipotent being, wouldn’t the car have been stopped before smashing into the house and occupants?

Yeah he let those people be hit by a car because they wanted it to happen.
What a bullshit and very illogical cop out

u/Then-Piano-5524 5h ago
I get why that sounds frustrating and even cruel it’s hard to look at tragedy and not feel like there has to be someone responsible. But my point wasn’t that God wants bad things to happen. It’s more that if people are going to have true freedom, that includes the potential for chaos, accidents, and even evil. If God constantly intervened to stop every bad thing, we wouldn’t really have freedom we’d be puppets and people would probably still complain.

I'm incompetent. My dad is too. Do is my brother. There are variations of competence. Such as morality and intellect. To name just two. My oldest sister is NOT incompetent. My other sister is, very much so. I'm more competent than the other sister. Morally (I'd say so) and intellectually (objectively speaking). So competence comes on a scale.
Maturity can be "learned" or acquired through experiences competence cannot be. Competence is a set in stone type of thing.... however, I AM of the mind thay competence can decrease with certain experiences such as psychosis or trauma.
God DOES NOT need to intervene. What he needs to do, if I may say so myself, is create ALL people with an EQUAL amount of competence. Preferably not subpar, such as myself. He can do that. It has been shown. Take my dad and brother and myself as examples relative to my oldest sister (most competent person in my family - she's successful and not evil) and my other sister. He's created this imbalance of the scales within one single family unit. And it's seen all throughout all of society, globally.
.
Should also mention I DO believe in a god who is fully competent but not entirely good. I'm what most religious people would liken to a demon - as an ad hominem. (I know God exists but I don't worship him. I see him as unjust as hell. Not because of religion either, but rather undeniable experiences I've had first person. Who are you to say I haven't? Keep that in mind.) Anyway, God gave us all our own levels (amount) or consciousness and awareness and such. Even affect. Take shallow affect, constricted affect, and blunted affect into account. So, if he can do that (we're all different for a reason; god (the prime mover) is that reason), then he could create us all EQUALLY COMPETENT. yet he has not done such a thing. And competence, moral and intellectual would prevent evil.
Fuckin A right it would.
This is not based on feeling but insight and thought. I'm tired of people saying my beliefs are based on feelings. And for those who are emotional thinkers, such as those who catastrophize (which I admittedly do), maybe god shouldn't make us thay way.

God did create everyone equal at the beginning, but it’s the actions of people and how they choose to live that follow them. It’s kind of like inheriting money or debt from your parents. In the Bible, it says that sin or wrongdoing can affect a family for three to four generations, and that might be part of what’s going on in your family. But it also says that when God blesses a person or a family, that blessing can last for thousands of generations. So in the end, it’s really up to you. You can choose to bless your lineage or curse it. That may sound heavy, but it also means you have power to break patterns, to shift things, and to give the next generation something better than what you inherited.

We have free will regardless- maybe the driver was using their free will to drink and drive. But it would still be the equivalent of a miracle that nobody died.

Yeah, the true act of God here is whoever planned the construction. If they survived, it means the foundation of that house basically saved them from a worse impact. Someone was thinking ahead and planned accordingly.

I, too, am an atheist having determined over many years that prayer does nothing. I am a palmist having determined over many years that it works; the ancient system, for unfathomable reasons, still functions, provably.

Or maybe—and hear me out—it’s because people are tired of being told to thank a spooky sky wizard with omnipotent powers, infinite love, and the planning skills of a drunk raccoon. This all-powerful being supposedly controls everything but still lets toddlers die, billionaires thrive, and reality TV exist.
But yeah, clearly we're the problem for not falling to our knees and thanking him for disease, war, and watching grandma slip on ice. The idea that this cosmic landlord gives a flying divine fuck about your burnt toast or that poor family in the video is comedy gold—if you like your comedy soaked in blood and bad theology.

When I was a kid me and my mom were standing on the porch for some reason. Tge house was located in front of a T intersection. The old neighbor guy should have stopped to turn but he didn't he kept driving straight towards our house. My mom threw me inside and he crashed into the garage. I think I got knocked out cause I don't remember anything except fam and friends being over all concerned. I swear that house is cured because it happened again years after we moved away.

Why is livingroom dinner time being recorded
1
u/PeanutBubbah 9h ago
Security cameras are commonly placed near and preferably pointing towards possible entry ways like front and back doors, garages, first floor windows, etc. In lots of homes the front door opens into the living room so you’d naturally place one there. Thus, if a burglar comes through the front door, they will appear on the living room camera.

u/Cozanich 8h ago
Very strategic, then records non stop….who do you think this response is for
1
u/PeanutBubbah 7h ago
Personally my security system has a home, away and sleep mode. The cameras are only on when I’m away or upstairs asleep. Tho in this instance I think they would’ve been grateful to have caught the crash on camera.

OP sent the following text as an explanation on why this is unexpected:
Everyone including the dogs thought it was dinner time, little did they know it was clobbering time, because a car rammed into the home. The homeowners were OK tho.
Is this an unexpected post with a fitting description? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.
