A deviation says ‘There are no atheists on a sinking ship! Don’t wait until you need a miracle. Turn to your Lord immediately!’

There are no Christians in Heaven. Why obey God, when you can no longer die and burn in Hell? /s
(If it matters, I’m not mocking Christianity in general, just this kind of thinking.)
If I had to turn to a god, that certainly would not be Jesus. He promised an end to arseholes and look where we are. Odin, on the other hand, opposed jotnar and I do not see giants around. I know which one delivered. /s
There are no atheists on a sinking ship!
I thought the line was “there are no atheists in a foxhole.” I don’t think that one makes much sense, but “no atheists on a sinking ship” makes LESS sense to me, because submarines exist. Ships that are literally designed to sink, and do it routinely, and I’m guessing nobody changes their religious point of view when such a thing happens.

There, fixed it for ya.
Puh-lease… IF I’m in mortal peril and I’m going to try and pray my way out in desparation, I’m not going to just leave it at the Christian god. I’m going to be like Beni in The Mummy and pray to every god there is at once ! Hey, it actually worked for him that time.

Technically, all ships are designed to sink.
And, no, if you run through the sub shouting, ’We’re sinking!’ no one prays. They do tell you to shut up, you idiot.
So which Lord would that be? I think praying to Neptune might be a good bet, if you were on a sinking ship.
Strapping on a life jacket would be a surer one.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
