Russian nut proves that God doesn't exist

Lioness in zoo kills man who invoked God

2 hours, 41 minutes ago

Kiev (Reuters) - A man shouting that God would keep him safe was mauled to death by a lioness in Kiev zoo after he crept into the animal's enclosure, a zoo official said on Monday.

"The man shouted 'God will save me, if he exists', lowered himself by a rope into the enclosure, took his shoes off and went up to the lions," the official said.

"A lioness went straight for him, knocked him down and severed his carotid artery."

The incident, Sunday evening when the zoo was packed with visitors, was the first of its kind at the attraction. Lions and tigers are kept in an "animal island" protected by thick concrete blocks.

Meh, this just proves that God hates Russians.

Can we encourage other like minded individuals to try this as well?
To ensure proper sampling, other large predators like bears and tigers should also be tested.

Hilarious. Link?

"God Shave me!"
and landed in a barber shop.

I'd really like to understand his motivations for this.

They're planning more?

Actually, I think Peter666 is on the right track. All we learn from these experiments is that either god doesn't exist, or he does but he wanted the nut dead, or he does but he doesn't care one way or the other, or he does and wanted to save him but the lioness wasn't channeling at the time.

Seems the experiment needs to be repeated with better controls in place.

"Thou shalt not test the Lord thy God," or something like that...

After the incident, the lioness thanked her god.

[purnell]

This is evidence that this guy, like everybody else, is ignorant of the nature of God.

Given the stupidity of the dude, I would say

You woud have thought that stupidity, as a trait, would not have survived so long /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[guesswest]

'If god exists, he will save me' is a considerable logical leap. If Carmen Electra exists she will have sex with me - think I just proved Carmen doesn't exist.

[MidGe]

Is Carmen Electra omniscient, the prime cause and the ruler of the game? If that's the issue, she doesn't exist.

It's, as you said, a considerable logical leap.

[dkgojackets]

Thank you God for helping to weed out the stupid people.

[srjunkacct]

C'mon, you people never heard this joke?

A missionary got lost somewhere in Africa and eventually ended up being backed up against a rock by a lion. As a last resort, the missionary got on his knees and prayed, "Dear Lord, please convert this lion to Christianity."

The lion then got on its knees and prayed, "Dear Lord, thank you for this meal that I am about to receive."

(FWIW, I am a practicing Christian. So please, no flames.)

EDIT: Whoops, I guess at least one respondent has heard of the joke. Carry on then.
