Did you ever experience a miracle. Something that you know had ZERO chance to happen, yet it did.

Obviously not a miracle for everyone else on the plane, especially the standby passenger who took his place when he missed the flight. So objectively I have a hard time considering it a miracle - it was good luck for one person and bad luck for someone else - but he definitely felt like there was a guardian angel watching out for him that day.


I guess the guardian angels of all those people who died on the plane were taking a break when it went down. I wonder if they get in trouble with God when so many of them fall down on the job like that the same time.

You don't know anything about those people and what they have done in their lives.

When I was 18 I had to drive to Rockville on the highway and was in the middle lane of 495. Traffic was very heavy and was going pretty fast when my tire blew out. I was an inexperienced driver and as soon as I realized what happened a supreme calm came over me and my car felt like it was guided to the shoulder of the road. Literally all the traffic around me opened up and my car just floated to side--that's exactly what it felt like. It did not feel like I was driving on flat tire. To this day I don't know how I got to the side and it truly felt like something else was moving vehicle.

I know those people are dead - so can't be doing anything in their lives.

You don't know what they have done in their lives prior to their death, and why them, and not another person was on that plane.

I had a similar experience on the road. I was in grade school with a toddler, constantly tired. Was returning home one night very tired, driving through the heavy rain on i-66 (one of those VA rains when you can't see anything even at the 20 mph). I usually never pull over during the rain and just drive with caution, but there was something that told me to pull over (I could hear the voice, and I am a big time atheist). I pulled over, waited for approximately 20 min (almost felt asleep behind the wheel), and when I proceeded to drive there were a multiple car crash just 3 miles ahead of me with a lot of fatalities.

So let me get this straight... god arranged for all these bad people to take one flight, then reconsidered the evidence on one dude and pardoned him, and then brought the rest of them down because they were all bad? What, he was out of cancer that day?

This is so ridiculous, let alone immoral. If you truly believe this, you need help.

My son fell from the 6th floor when he was 18 months old. The railing of the winding stairs of the hotel came out as they were loose and down he went all the way right in front of me. The receptionists were screaming “he’s crying, he’s not dead”. Long story short, DS suffered lots of cuts and bruises but had no broken bones. After staying in the local children’s hospital for a week (internal bleeding and complications) we were finally allowed to return to the US. We found out he did suffer some brain damage which caused him severe speech delays. The residues of this horrendous fall is reminded to us once in a while, in the form of wrong syntax formation in every language he speaks) but otherwise he’s doing just fine, studying biochemistry, and competing on the school’s swim team. At the time, his pediatrician, after consulting with the overseas physicians, told us that he did not believe in higher powers, but someone must have held this child mid air to survive such a steep fall with minimal damage.

I am very happy for you, and as a parent I cannot imagine the horror you went through. Let me ask this question generically without specifically referring to your child.

If god was going to save a child, wouldn’t it have been better to save them a second before they fell from the window, rather than a second after?

I would call this a freak accident; not a miracle.

I'm so glad that your son survived and is doing well.

So you're saying all those people deserved to die?

My friend was driving me and my infant daughter.
We were stopped at a red light and I’ll of a sudden she changed several lanes over. She looked at me so scared and said the voice said move
A large truck came speeding down the street and hit the car that had been in front of us. He would of rear ended us if she hadn’t moved

Too bad the driver of the car in front of you didn't hear the same voice.

Then again, they might have, if they had seen the truck coming in the rear view mirror the way your friend did.

When your son falls from the 6th floor and dies, you can call it a freak accident )
