Child prodigy

This is a video about a girl who paints pictures of her portrayal of god and heaven. She claims to have seen heaven in her visions. Her mother was an athiest.

What is up with this?

(My mom showed this to me as if she wanted to prove something.)

For some reason It wont

For some reason It wont load. But I have already heard of her. I think you should show your mother a picture of a bunny, it has absolutely no point, just like this. I don't care if a girl can paint really well and her mother is an atheist. It proves nothing, and bunnies are more fuzzy anyway. - Joan of ark was a helpful person (actually I do not know that for sure... I have just heard that...) and she thought that she communicated with god

Just because people are smart, does not mean that they are right. It just adds a small amount of believability because when they are knowledgeable they tend to have looked things up.

I would be interested to find out what religion she believes in and why. (I do not remember if it says it)

this proves nothing so the

this proves nothing
so the girl has nice dreams of pretty places and thinks they're heaven, duh, she's a little girl, she's supposed to be dreaming about that stuff.

She sees a guy in her dreams, a guy that appears to have some sort of signifigance. looks like every representation of jesus to be found in a white household
who's to say that god doesn't look like...this!

Yeah, and since he lives forever and noses never stop growing... he is going to have to get one every couple of centuries or so...

Woah! A kid who paints in

Woah! A kid who paints in claiming to see god... wait a second... I have heard this before...

My brother goes to an arts school. If this girl is not doing some heavy drugs, I'll be damned (if the atheism didn't already do it).

There are a lot of videos

There are a lot of videos about kids seeing god or having some kind of experience like that ever since the Blasphemy Challenge got started.

It's all bullshit, they will say anything to change an atheist's mind.

Sylvia Browne was once

Sylvia Browne was once considered real.

I'm willing to bet the only 36...(checks wallet)...34 dollars I have that we will never hear from her again.

I have to admit that she's a very talented artist, especially for her age, but it seems that all you have to do is have a graphic dream and hordes of people will believe that your dream has a hidden message.

Right brain, Left brain

Right brain, Left brain thing. Something I learned in neuro-psychology.

Her "prodigy" title clearly comes from her right brain. Art skills. Visions of God. Savants of Math *feel* answers instead of *thinking* answers.

Those stronger in right brain functions tend to be religious. They "feel" instead of "think".

Those stronger in left brain functions tend to be atheistic. They "think" instead of "feel".

Logic (Left) combats Faith (Right) for control of your genetic predisposition to belief or non-belief. Although exercising either the right or the left brain will environmentally change your predisposition.

So... what would be amazing is if a left brain prodigy saw visions of God. However, that is highly improbable.

So this... a big deal? Not at all. It is almost inevitable that a right-brained prodigy becomes religious.

Yes, Rabbits are quite nice

Yes, Rabbits are quite nice as Guruite said.

I couldn't view the video Toxicat but I remember watching her on Oprah (Why I was watch Oprah, I don't know)
Or wait, I don't know maybe it wasn't Oprah. Just seems like an Oprah story to me.

I didn't think much of it. I also don't recall hearing who's god she believes in or if it's her own god.
