“Atheists do not know how to breathe properly: Turkish therapist”
And yet I can climb a flight of stairs without collapsing.
“Atheists do not believe God exists because they do not know how to breathe correctly, a Turkish breathing therapist has claimed.”
A new one, at least.
“a self-claimed breathing therapist, suggested atheists had no breath in their rib cages for a reason related to “magnetic fields” there.”
Good lord, how would you go about proving this?
I mean, my doctors (some of them) make a point each visit of listening to my breathing. They hold the stethoscope to my rib cage to hear the air flowing there.
““Radical atheists come to my seminars. There are many serious researches conducted to find the relations between breathing and thinking. For example, atheists’ abdominal breathing is perfect but there is no breath in here,” she said, pointing at her rib cage. “There is a bulge in the rib cage. It is like there’s a stone in there.””
How, exactly, does air get into the throat, past the lungs, into the abdomen if it’s not in the rib cage?
“She claimed that hundreds of thousands of atheists who she conducted breathing exercises on in the end had said they found God.”
Uh huh.
“During our exercises, we focus especially on the body part that has difficulties breathing. When we fix the breathing problem, the mind has a revival.”
Every time they take my blood pressure, they check the oxygen saturation in my blood. No one’s ever suggested a deficiency, except when i had pneumonia that one time. And neither the drop or the artificial increase of the oxygen tube, or the natural increase of being cured, made me any more open to the chaplains that visited.
(I have it on my wife’s authority that even whacked out of my goddamned mind on painkillers, i maintain my atheism and politely asked the chaplain not to pray for me. But we had a nice talk and i introduced her to my stuffed bear, Asterix).
"I know many who said in tears at the end of the seminars that they found God,” she said.”
I question atheists that come to a seminar aimed at making you find god.
