It's obvious that the kid in the video believes in God himself.C'mon b... let dat boy live!
First of all I was responding to the people in this thread asking what I would say and also "praising" some "god"
Second of all, he didn't clearly explain how miracles happened to him. There were no miracles. The kid simply did not die. If its a miracle, then why did he have to go to the hospital? The real miracle was if he was never found but just walked out of the woods a couple hours later fully healed. If he didn't go to the hospital he would have died. Maybe even 50 yars ago this kid would have been dead due to medical treatments we have now. Where is your miracle then? This is what you DO NOT UNDERSTAND.
He had his body blown to pieces and was mentally and physically confused.
he was trying to help himself up and was slipping in and out of consciousness. Thats SHOCK.
Of course he remembered his dad's phone number...its like one of the first things kids learn these days. Its long term memory potentiation in the cortical centers of the brain that deal with long term memory. Its why you don't have to think about what your address is because you've known it for so long. its automatic.
Your "god" wasn't there with that boy. People who paid for police, medical professionals, and kind-hearted people who wanted to see justice served were there.
Even if your god was "there" how did your god let this happen to this innocent kid?

The kid just woke up out of a coma and was disoriented.
I can't say why he knew the phone number over his name. It was probably chaotic in his patient room and people were talking and yelling at him trying to get his attention while treating him.
he was confused and probably thats the first thing that made sense to him.
The dude was MESSED UP. But none of that means there was some higher power there. The kid didn't die because of medical professionals, cops, and our justice system that sealed the fate of the suspect. If this sort of "higher power existed" none of this would happen, nor would it have required medical advances to save his life. So much for that "miracle."
Let me know when "god" decides to save the thousands of people who get shot all over the world and don't die from equally or worse inflicted wounds. But yet when one person survives its a miracle. Whoopity doo! I'm glad the kid is alive. Don't get me wrong. But I can't sit here and not address some of the utterly narcissistic responses in here. Like he is blessed and favored etc... Nothing in that vid shows that he was actually hanging with the wrong crowd and what not. If this is a miracle, then him getting his body blown to bits and his car stolen was apart of that miracle too.
My bottom line, don't praise god. If you want to thank someone, give props to the doctors and nurses that saved his life and treated him or to the cop that saw him and decided to intervene and thank his friends and family for supporting him during his trial and allowing him to continue his life.
Those are the real heroes.

His "friend"shot him to join a gang. It had to be somebody random.

Dude has a point though. If God cared so much, why let it happen in the first place? Its almost like throwing your pet poodle into a dog fight, watching it get mangled by a Rottweiler within inches of death, saving it at the last second and then everyone telling you how amazing of an owner you are. Very crazy story though. Dude will never pay for a drink the rest of his life with a story like that.

I didn't do that.
Believers always think they get to assume their stance is the default one.
Guess what. Its not.
People in this thread saying "thank god" did that.
Why do they get to proclaim some "god" exists and I don't?
Like god was in the ambulance or was in the hospital or in the cop car or in the court room.
So the people who say "thank god" aren't turning this into a religious conversation?
What happened to saying "i'm happy this kid is alive" ? and just keeping it moving?
And yes, i do have a problem with it if you must know...the REAL heroes are the ones who saved this kids life from certain death. That cop, that doctor, that legal team. THAT is what we have to thank.

C'mon son. Dude was called out by name to address this, and shut another dumb "god is great" theory down in one post.
Good analogy.

That's crazy dude is still alive. I probably would've gave up. Then again who's to say how one would react in that situation. I just hope that I'm never involved with something of that magnitude.
