Some extreme stupidity: "A Swimming Pool in the ICU? My patient, nearing death, made a moving request: baptism. He’d get the full dunk."
This article was at the Wall Street Journal's weekly "Houses of Worship" about two years ago. The Wall Street Journal which is suppose to be about business and investing has lots of god bullshit because they know that's what their god-soaked brain-dead anti-science Republican customers want.
This is what I wrote there. After I wrote it there was much harassment. I never met a Christian who wasn't a stupid fucking asshole.

A typical comment: "What a wonderful way to leave this life for the next!"
Intense relentless religious brainwashing makes this insanity possible. Imagine the magic wand waving required to magically make a magical soul magically fly to a magical paradise where cowards can have a magical 2nd life.
I looked it up. 105 people die each minute. This means the Magic Jeebus Man would have to wave his magic wand several times every second.
I can't imagine anything more ridiculous than a magical 2nd life. It's obviously just wishful thinking. It's obviously completely impossible. It would require throwing out all of science and all of reality. And of course like every other insane religious fantasy, there is not one shred of evidence for it.
The people who are infected with the god disease pretend faith is a virtue even though faith is just an excuse to believe in cowardly nonsense that makes these people feel good.
The god disease is usually incurable because the victims of religious brainwashing were taught how to never think.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
