The reason there are no athiests in foxholes - GoFuckYourself.com

Look, I am tired of seeing you christian pussies use this phrase.

The reason there are no atheists in foxholes is because we will not die in a war for your fucking god or your oil.

we realized long ago there is no hope and there is no lord who is going to save you. You bastards go prove your bravery, go die in a foxhole...

so shut up with your no atheiests in foxholes crap, because we arent stupid enough to join and die for "one nation under god."

dumb asses.

I don't think that is what the phrase means.

... it means that everybody converts when they are in a foxhole because they are in a war and close to death..... kinda like why all old folks get religious... they need to believe there is something after this life waiting for them.

I know what the phrase means, I am saying theres not many ATHEISTS in the army either.

Of course I know what the stupid slogan says, which is why I brought it up and made this thread.

AND NOT ALL TURN TO GOD.

they stand by their belief system like the rest.

That's what the phrase means BUT it may not capture the whole range of reactions of people in the same situation.

Other people may look inward into their lives and seek inner peace from an interesting life lived rather than reach OUTWARDS to supernatural entities for meaning.

Even if somebody does start to PRAY it is still that individual who gives MEANING to his act and his prayer.
