A deep blue storm swirls above Krishna’s upraised arms, his four hands steady beneath the weight of Mount Govardhan. Indra, robed in Mughal finery, watches from the clouds as villagers shelter under the sacred slope—what shifts if you trace the rain’s path from his throne to the earth below?

A quotation from Robert Ingersoll
Only the other day a gentleman was telling me of a case of special Providence. He knew it. He had been the subject of it. A few years ago he was about to go on a ship, when he was detained. He did not go, and the ship was lost with all on board.
“Yes,” I said, ” Do you think the people who were drowned believed in special Providence?” Think of the infinite egotism of such a doctrine. Here is a man that fails to go upon a ship with 500 passengers, and they go down to the bottom of the sea — fathers, mothers, children, and loving husbands and wives waiting upon the shores of expectation. Here is one poor little wretch that did not happen to go! And he thinks that God, the Infinite Being, interfered in his poor little withered behalf and let the rest all go. That is special Providence!Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American lawyer, freethinker, orator

A quotation from Robert Ingersoll
Man must learn to rely upon himself. Reading bibles will not protect him from the blasts of winter, but houses, fires, and clothing will. To prevent famine, one plow is worth a million sermons, and even patent medicines will cure more diseases than all the prayers uttered since the beginning of the world.
Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American lawyer, agnostic, orator
Lecture (1872-01-29), “The Gods,” Fairbury Hall, Fairbury, IllinoisMore about this quote: wist.info/ingersoll-robert-gre…

I was wondering recently how the error arose which leads us to have recourse to God in all our doings and designs, calling upon him in every kind of need and in any place whatsoever where our weakness needs support, without once considering whether the occasion is just or unjust. No matter how we are or what we are doing — however sinful it may be — we invoke God’s name and power.
[J’avoy presentement en la pensée, d’où nous venoit cett’ erreur, de recourir à Dieu en tous nos desseins & entreprises, & l’appeller à toute sorte de besoing, & en quelque lieu que nostre foiblesse veut de l’aide, sans considerer si l’occasion est juste ou injuste ; & d’escrier son nom, & sa puissance, en quelque estat, & action que nous soyons, pour vitieuse qu’elle soit.]Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) French essayist
Essays, Book 1, ch. 56 (1.56), “Of Prayers [Des prieres]” (1572-1580) [tr. Screech (1987)]More info about (and translations of) this quote: wist.info/montaigne-michel-de/…

A quotation from Robert Ingersoll
If we admit that some infinite being has controlled the destinies of persons and peoples, history becomes a most cruel and bloody farce. Age after age, the strong have trampled upon the weak; the crafty and heartless have ensnared and enslaved the simple and innocent, and nowhere, in all the annals of mankind, has any god succored the oppressed.

KING RICHARD: Not all the water in the rough rude sea
Can wash the balm off from an anointed king.
The breath of worldly men cannot depose
The deputy elected by the Lord.
For every man that Bolingbroke hath pressed
To lift shrewd steel against our golden crown,
God for His Richard hath in heavenly pay
A glorious angel. Then, if angels fight,
Weak men must fall, for heaven still guards the right.William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
Richard II, Act 3, sc. 2, l. 55ff (3.2.55) (1595)More info about this quote: wist.info/shakespeare-william/…

In Ghana 🇬🇭 when posters can't be imported, local artists will bootleg them to the best of their abilities. Some often are more imaginative than the official studio releases.#DivineIntervention (2002)

A quotation from Ambrose Bierce
PRAY, v. To ask that the laws of the universe be annulled in behalf of a single petitioner confessedly unworthy.
Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) American writer and journalist
“Pray,” The Devil’s Dictionary (1911)Sourcing, notes: wist.info/bierce-ambrose/1064/

I was splitting wood again today. Not for myself, but for my neighbour Allan. I had asked him several times in the fall if he needed wood, but he literally believes in #divineintervention and #miracles and was convinced he’d somehow be a millionaire by winter and did not need any wood. Guess who came to raid my #WoodShed yesterday…

@SmudgeTheInsultCat
T**** is out there calling his "brush with death": "Divine Providence" that he wasn't killed.But then #Biden's cognitive state forced him to drop out, clearing the way for #Harris.
So, if the law of #DivineIntervention still applies, then it's no joke. "God" spared him just to force him to run against a black woman.
That's what I ❤️ about God. She has a playful sense of humor. 👍

@wood5y
I don't believe in an "#Antichrist", but if there were one, how would #Evangelicals ever tell the difference?They called #Obama the Antichrist b/c of his "celebrity" & "cult-like following."
T**** is LITERALLY a celebrity, hosted a TV show called "Celebrity Apprentice", and his adoring followers believe he is anointed by God.
Blasphemous T**** himself is going around claiming "#DivineIntervention" spared his life from that bullet (while another man died.)

@gtconway3
T**** is LITERALLY the embodiment of the #7DeadlySins. And arguably, has broken ALL TEN COMMANDMENTS.Now he's blasphemously claiming #DivineIntervention for sparing his life (for which a firefighter apparently had to be sacrificed.)
I can't fathom why ANY #Evangelical would support a #SerialAdulterer #ConvictedFelon for president (I don't believe in an "antichrist", but how different would one be from T****?)

During #TrumpsAcceptanceSpeech last night, he brought out the #immigration chart he was about to talk about at his rally, claiming "It saved my life" (b/c turning to look at it resulted in the bullet missing his head.)
This is an exaggeration I'd like to quash here.
T****'s head had actually already been turned for a couple of seconds *before* the shot was fired. The shooter simply missed. It wasn't luck or "#DivineIntervention" that saved his life.
