This helps proves that Christianity is true.
A few days ago, there was a paraglider who was swept up into a storm to thousands of feet above the normal paraglider height. It was freezing, but she lived. The others didn't, it was a miracle. She is an atheist.
I think God was trying to get her to be a Christian. Hopefully she will not be stupid and she will convert after this. This was an opportunity that Jesus gave her to keep her from burning in Hell forever.
This proves that God is fair and that he gives people that deserve to burn in Hell a second chance.

If the exact opposite had occurred, you would be exclaiming how it was God's divine wrath, so just shut up all right? The eighteenth century ended ages ago, so you can stop pretending that the weather is somehow related to Gawd.
Question: What has Chris K taught me?
Wow, what an argument for NOT converting.
This doesn't prove anything. She was the lucky one. Were the other ones devout Christians? Even if that is the case, it STILL doesn't prove anything. It just shows that you heard a story which may or may not have been true, happened to know that the sole survivor was an atheist, and decided that it proved what you believe is true.
OK, so let's see now:Christian survives: Obviously, if she was saved for her faith. This proves God exists.
Atheist survives: Obviously, God's trying to convert her. This proves God exists.
So you win either way. How convenient.
First, do you have a link to the article describing the event, If not its just your claim.
Yes, this story is true. However, whether or not the woman that lived was an athiest and the man that died and was found miles away was xian is completely unsubstantiated.

if god does indeed intend to convert atheists, why not just tell them, it would get the message across far better than paragliding in a thunderstorm, jesus should do a course on advertising, he would learn a LOT
This reminds me of a local news story some years ago, where a woman had survived a parachute jump when her parachute malfunctioned. She appeared on tv in a body cast in a wheelchair, and said she was the luckiest person in the world. My boyfriend remarked that if she had broken both legs, she would have been luckier still.
What would Chris K have said if there had been TWO survivors -- one Atheist, and one Christian?
> This proves that God is fair and that he gives people ... a second chance.<
So god is merciful...
> people that deserve to burn in Hell <
... but you are not.
A car with three people in it fell into a freezing river. The snow had been piled up as a kind of ramp (unintentionally, of course) and the car went off the road and into the river. The driver survived, the other two died in hospital. she drove into the river, her friends (or family perhaps) died as a consequence, but she's still alive.
Or, it was just a horrible accident. No god involvement, at all.
No, all that proves is that it is possible for a paraglider to survive being swept up into a storm, but that it is also possible not to survive it.
Now, it would be different if a hand had magically appeared from the clouds and gently deposited her back on the ground. That would simultaneously "prove" that God exists and that he is a dick - what about the paragliders who died? Is God not omnipotent enough to safely pluck them all from the storm and let them live?
Pyro, mod (and epic), since you were the last commenter on this post, can you PLEASE add a previous button to the category section? Because the back arrow isn’t always effective. Also, OP, DIAF! (With some extra gasoline!)
