And this is when you roll your eyes back and start chanting a prayer to the Lord of Darkness.
AirBud3theReckoning
I dont doubt that this would happen, I just doubt that this did happen
Jewdakris
I pray that these people learn to SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT THEIR SPACE MAN ALREADY.

Prayer is not a panacea. God is not a vending machine.
eclecticdyslexic
God is a wafer.

Make Christians Afraid Again
themagiciantarotcard
The reason we don't doubt the veracity of this story is because we've all had an encounter with an overstepping asshole like this Christian.
SubTrout
Imagine seeing a stranger crying in public and just inserting your shitty opinion uninvited. Doing literally nothing would be better.
AngryRogueMage
When he tells this story he'll be praised for sharing the love of God, and helping her out of a 'bad place' /eyeroll

"I am praying . . . that you get permanently injured. Thanks."

“It wasn’t meant to be” is also another contender. If you hangout with religious people, their mistakes turn into “god’s will.” No Susan, we
AvocadoHouse
missed the the reservation because you were 20 minutes late, not because god had a higher plan for you.

Our Father in heaven, we pray this man learns to shut his mouth and mind his own ducking business. Amen.
DougForcett
I've said this forever, but the worst thing about religion are most all the religious people.
TheAlviss
Without fools believing it its just mythology. I'm pretty sure Zeus' followers haven't hurt anyone in a long while.
LocalPumpkinHero
I feel the same way about people.
BennyGaga
Most people don't have a billion people to back up their worst ideas.

Loud, public shaming. Every time.

I would tell him to fuck off. Then he can play the victim card. That's what he really wants anyway, to claim he's being oppressed.
ThePippinator
Saw a church sign a while back that read; 'P.U.S.H.: Pray Until Something Happens'.
kyzentun
"Pray" is a euphemism for sleeping with the priest.
Eiladar
Both involve being on your knees?
3Davideo
The modern spelling is "prey".
GuyFromDeathValley
No that only applies to little boys.
CascadiaPNW
I would have turned to him and said, Hail Satan our dark lord bring light to my heart with the flames of hell.

BunnyNoose
Yeah. I would have told him to go fuck himself.
painstream
Openly and loudly.
mrsdowneyjr
As a Christian I will never understand "it's gods plan' or 'shes in a better place" or any of that dribble. What an insult to pain
kobyashimaru
The Bible says to weep with those who weep.
Gryphonosiris
Whoever said that these "Conservative Christians" even read the bible?
Girlie1337
My family finds a lot of comfort in prayer. We feel not so alone. We don't mean anything by recommending it other than it makes us feel >>
Girlie1337
better, so maybe it'll make you feel better. I think part of is it just the talking and processing.

Katabare
He meant well and wasn't in bad faith. Were there better ways of approaching her? Yes. Were there worse ways of approaching this? Also, yes
Theyettie
Good to know I'm not the only one who saw it that way
Katabare
Glad to hear. A lot of people aren't as culturally competent and tolerant as they say they are. This is a good example.

When is it alright to go up to a stranger and tell them to stop crying?
xedrik
His input was not solicited or desired. His instruction "stop crying" presumes familiarity & a right to dictate OP's emotions. It's gross.
dontbeabee
Didn't look like he meant well to me. He just wanted to insert himself in a situation and be a 'hero', when he wasn't wanted.

Jessica Jones is way too damned good
rowanmc
Of all the Marvel stuff, Jessica Jones (the first season) and Wandavision have been my favorites.
NotTheActualCharlieDay
Jeeeessssiicccaaaaaaaa
exbenedict
What is this from?
Insanepixi
Jessica Jones I believe.
Imnotcanadiandammit
If that’s the moment I think it is, so unbelievably satisfying, holy crap.
rowanmc
Yep and yep. I'm sure when I was young and stupid I told someone to smile. Now I just think, cry if you want, some things suck.
DakotaWolf
The moment mentioned is Jessica Jones said smile before using her super strength to break the neck if the dude she's holding.
Scorch052
What's sad is I really do believe this person has the best of intentions. They're just absolutely clueless.
ThatOtherMacAvoyWoman
Impact over intent
amb1021
I don't believe that at all. Plenty of assholes in the world, you know.
Scorch052
I mean going up to a stranger and wishing them well is a very weird way to choose to be an asshole but I can't say I'd complain about it.
akefay
My newphew is in a wheelchair. Lady at a store was like "can I pray for him?" and his mum was like "sure?" Thinking at church later. 1/2
akefay
Nope, got down on her knees and started wailing prayers out in the produce section. He's still in a wheelchair, guess it didn't take
Scorch052
Well ya know they say the Lord works in mysterious ways lol
NaughtButOne
Yeah. Prayer might bring that person strength and comfort through hardship. It's just a "this is what works for me", if unsolicited advice.
JAPONfan
"Pray" is the term of getting on your knee's and sucking dicks. That's why priests encourage boys to do it.
TakeTheStairs
since when is it being used that way? pretty sure thats not what church goers mean when they use that word
GeForcen
They mean to suck god's ghost dick to get what you want, or not burn forever in the eternal trap that he created to force you to pray.
JAPONfan
pretty common recommendation for anyone complaining about molesting. "pray for that priest and don't tell anyone".
VulcanP90
wut
Asgarus
Where and since when is that a thing? Oô
JAPONfan
Poland, since anyone try to talk about priests molesting children.
TakeTheStairs
its not at all. no clue how their original comment even has 20 upvotes
