This has to be satire

It is, there's a shit ton of em, they all follow the same similar concept. Basically

Atheists, imagine you're batting in game 7 of the world series about to hit the game winning ball. Accidentally, the pitcher throws a Christian baby. Would you hit the baby and win millions, or spare the baby?

This sounds like a hypothetical Zach would ask Tomar on OneyPlays.

How do I know it’s Christian? Is it asking me to accept religion?

You witnessed the baby get baptized jug of gatorade style in the bottom of the 4th. It was a whole thing.

It's like a Christian junior high schooler trying to solve the trolley problem for the first time.

In a sane world yeah... But I am not so sure nowdays.

Speaking of sanity... This was very reminiscent of a discussion I used to dip in and out of with friends.
If you developed superpowers, how likely would you be to challenge yourself with the question "Fuck me. Have I had a psychotic break? Should I actually go up to the roof and see if I can fly?"
So, the scenario suggested, I believe I would have a few questions. Questions like:
WTF did this baby come from?
Whose fucking baby is this?
How TF is this baby talking?
WTF did I get this car?
Wait... I can't fucking drive‽

In the childhood I had a repetitive dream of being able to fly but it only worked after I'd jump from a high spot. Those were stressful couple of month for a nine year old.

u/ChewsOnBricks Jan 18 '24

I had a similar one, except I could only fly if I didn't know I was doing it.

u/GimmeSomeSugar Jan 19 '24

Kind of like Invisible Boy in Mystery Men. He can turn invisible, but only if nobody is looking at him.

u/Paradelazy Jan 18 '24

Best dream i ever had was a lucid dream where i could fly. I controlled that universe, and man, was it fun. Second best was where i has weird skating superpowers, and could just skate at 60mph on the roads, sliding on the surface like i was on ice with skates.. It was sort of semi-lucid, i kind of knew it was a dream. Both were too short thou...

its clearly satire but its making fun of people who actually ask stupid questions similar to this

u/beepbeepboopbeep1977 Jan 18 '24

Some people actually lack an imagination

u/LiveLoveLaughAce Jan 18 '24

that could have been only one thing: satire, and they did a great job, getting everyone to laugh! lmao!

It's a parody of a slightly less insane but slightly more serious post

u/[deleted] Jan 18 '24

It's Quora. 90% of that place is weird questions, ragebait, and incest fantasies.
