So you're saying all you atheists think if God really did exist he       would regrow lost limbs in 5 seconds. HILARIOUS!!! Why do you think he would       regrow an entire limb in less time than it takes broken bones to heal, does       your       infantile little mind have any idea about that?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
