Jesus, take the wheel...What do you mean you can't drive?!?

A woman in Indiana claimed recently that she was overcome with a feeling that God would take over her driving.

Unfortunately for her, and other people on the road, God can't drive. Seeing as the last thing a Judeo-Chrisitan deity 'drove' was a donkey, it may have been a bit of a mistake in allowing said deity drive a two-ton metal hunk of death.

Of course, the woman ended up driving over a motorcyclist; nearly killing him. Did she think Jesus would drive her to the zoo?

Here's the kicker: the guy on the motorcycle? Credits God for saving his life.

Ta-da!

By the way,  he happened to be in the vicinity of a group of retired nurses who were able to get him stable and call an ambulance. What a miracle! ((heavy eye rolling))

So, which one is crazy? The woman who believed that God was talking to her to tell her to let go of the wheel and close her eyes or the guy who was run over, nearly killed, but 'saved by God'?

Believing in a force that knows all and sees all should teach you that God knew you were going to be run over by a car and that you were going to live. You don't need to thank him for saving you.What's going to happen was already 'written down'. He didn't 'save' you. If anything I'd be pissed.

Why would a loving God, who knew that this would cause you pain, allow this to happen?
For a test? That's sick.
To somehow make you a better person? That's cruel.
Because he can't change it otherwise? Why call him a god?

And claiming an invisible force was going to drive your car? That smells like some heavy bullshit someone is trying to use to get out of taking responsibility for their actions.

Admit it, chick. You were texting.

Side note: How can we possibly blame this on a country music song and get it banned? It worked for heavy metal music when kids became 'violent after listening to the music'? Maybe this woman felt that God could drive after hearing an artist claim he could.....? Can we PLEASE ban country music? Please??
