So basically, the clerk just annoyed the robber into going elsewhere with his irritating Jesus-talk... Was the clerk Mormon?

He even said the gun that he was threatening her with was a BB gun.

Jesus-talk is a pretty effective deterrent in any situation, apparently.

Although I would have countered with, "Well how do you know that me robbing you blind and tying you up in the back room isn't all part of God's plan? Maybe you need a few hours of quiet reflection, and I need a big screen TV, and this is just God's way of making sure we both get what we need?"

Then I'd pistolwhip him for a little while.

I've been in churches, and I've been in cathedrals, and synagogues, and mosques, and even a buddhist temple. But by far the godliest place I've ever been is jail. If you ever want to find yourself amongst some of the most religious folks you ever seen, just get in some trouble and get your ass locked up.
Motherf**kers in there spend all friggin' day long reading their bibles and q'urans and so forth, and yapping about how God or Jesus or Allah or whoever has done saved their immortal soul. Especially if they manage to get themselves up in front of a parole board.
Right up until they get out, that is. Then, about 90% of the time, they go right back to doing exactly what they did before they got locked up. Religion is to convicts as lesbianism is to college girls.

So she was trying to BS him with some god-talk, and his BS line was that he need it for the rent, when he was actually a serial thief.

You know how I can tell neither of you watched the video?

I dunno about all the "OMG, Jesus talk is lame - it doesn't do anyone any good!!one!ONE!" I mean, the clerk didn't get robbed, raped or shot - sounds like her faith was rewarded if you ask me.

Wouldn't it be "loans". I find it hard to believe 2 different Jewish people can be mentioned with regards money in the same sentence and neither are doing any loan-sharking...

I hadn't considered that possibility. Or maybe I did but then I forgot.

My favorite comment on stories I don't believe is "that's actually incredible!". They think I've bought their story, but anyone intelligent around realizes I just said I don't believe them.

Yeah, this is kinda lame.

It ain't Fark. Just think of it as the smart bit of the world. All religion has done is embarrass and shame itself publicly for the last few decades. TV evangelicals, hate groups calling themselves churches, hypocrite politicians, pedophile priests, Israel/Palestine, Islam. It's not science that's the enemy, it's the just the self-evident absurdity of it all in 2010. Eventually even the stupidest southerner will be on board.

Police say Camacho robbed a Payless Shoe Store a few hours later and he's actually a serial robber.

He didn't steal anything at the store when the clerk distracted him with that preachy crap and now he got caught and soon he will be someone's biatch in jail.

christers can be so stupid!

THIS, and lots of it. It just goes to show that with enough indoctrination, people will believe more or less anything.

She probably didn't offer him a free Bible. Had she offered him a free Bible, he could have read it along the way to the next robbery and God would have leapt out of the pages to deter him. Free Bibles man, they'll change the world yo.

Sometimes Jesus is the answer.

For example if the question is: "What's that word dad used to shout when he hit his thumb with a hammer?"
