Rick & Morty

Why did I not watch this before?

I just binged 6 seasons of this in a few days. On the plus side, I didn't have to wait long between each season, but man this show is GREAT!

Thanks America! You can make some quality funny shit after all

I thought it was going off the rails a little, but the last season was great.

I like the part where Rick is cursing God until he thinks he is about to die, begs for forgiveness then after he is delivered, goes back to cursing God.

It's an old joke but it always makes me laugh.

There are no atheists in foxholes.

Funny stuff...

If you have Game Pass for Xbox, check out High On Life. The Ricky & Morty folks made it, and while I'm only about an hour into the game, it's pretty funny.

There are no atheists in foxholes.

From the anthology Last Letters From Stalingrad, first published in 1950.

As one young soldier wrote:

    "In Stalingrad, to put the question of God’s existence means to deny it. I must tell you this, Father, and I feel doubly sorry for it. You have raised me, because I had no mother, and always kept God before my eyes and soul. And I regret my words doubly, because they will be my last… you are a pastor, Father… I have searched for God in every crater, in every destroyed house, on every corner, in every friend, in my fox hole, and in the sky. God did not show Himself, even though my heart cried for Him. The houses were destroyed… on earth there was hunger and murder, from the sky came bombs and fire, only God was not there. No, Father, there is no God.”

Or as another young soldier lamented:

    “This will be my last letter… perhaps forever… the situation has become untenable. The Russians are within three kilometers… If there is a God… I don’t believe any longer that God can be good, for then he would not permit such injustice. I don’t believe in it anymore, for he would have enlightened the minds of those people who began this war… I don’t believe in God anymore, because he betrayed us. I don’t believe anymore.”

These letters are but two examples of a fact rarely talked about: sometimes soldiers actually lose their faith on the battlefield, rather than find it.

Put another way, if you need to put people in horrific conditions of imminent death to gain converts then perhaps your god isn't all he's cracked up to be.

Anyway Morty, never seen it, might give it a go now.

Heh. It was the trailers and game play footage that got me to watch Rick and Morty

And I've played a few hours of High on Life. One of the funniest games I've ever played

That intro loading up the game the first time..... Buck Thunder.... Hilarious as hell!! Should be it's own game, I'd pay for it lol

OMG yes, the bit about double jumping especially

Put another way again, deep down everyone knows God exists, but often the first time they ask for help is when they think they are about to die.

It's sad really.

If you really believed in God then why would this be a problem?  Shouldn't every Christian welcome death?

Crouton.

My old friend.

Let's not stand on ceremony here.

Are you quoting Bane?

In my heart I want what is best for you.
You just want me out of the way.

It's of no consequence.
God can raise up stones to Abraham.

Started watching it around season 3 and then binged 1 and 2.  Yeah could we get a 'Roy' video game?  Just take a break from life and live another life for 50 some odd years?
