              Joyce is implying that Dorothy is lucky that she will have people to write her jokes, because her own sense of humor is cheesy/terrible. At least that’s what I took away from it.

          It means put Dorothy in a war zone, death camp, zombie apocalypse, etc. that she has to endure, and face her own inevitable mortality that her principles won’t help one bit while she’s at it, and there’s a good chance her atheist principles will be replaced with “Save me, Jeebus!” or “God, Allah, Buddah, L. Ron Hubbard, I love you all!”

          Atheists are usually found in places very far from foxholes at that, or at least it seems that way.

              With a perfectly unbiased source, of course.

              But the proverb does reek of borderline reasoning, yes.

              I still think Dorothy will cave, on account of her being no Ernest Hemingway or Kurt Vonnegut. Her atheism strikes me more as glorified agnosticism due to fear making the wrong call, and also an extension of her persona as an intellectual.

    Dorothy could feel Joyce’s breath on the back of her neck, a warm tease that made her think of other things. “Can’t she even understand that Sal would kill me for even thinking about her in that way.” she thought as the breaths became shallower and more rapid. “Bad enough Sal already sneaks in and out to visit her, now this?” the inner monologue continued. “Joyce, I thought Sal wanted to take you for a ride…” Joyce’s eyes opened. “Oh yes, I had forgotten about that.” Joyce’s breathing became deeper again. “Where was it you wanted to take me?” she sweetly sang towards Sal, her puppy dog eyes looking up into the steel-eyed biker chick.

Now it get wierd. Dororthy knows about Joyces scare I think..so why would she say such a stupid thing? That while “there are no Athiests in foxholes” I guess Dorothy is saying that er….Ethan is a foxhole and a play on words of the overly religious Joyce being an athiest? haha yeah right

      A commonly held belief amongst some religious people is that there are “no atheists in foxholes”, i.e., when we’re in a scary dangerous situation (like war) we all suddenly become religious and pray to be kept safe. This is of course complete nonsense, but it’s where the phrase comes from.

        There is some truth to that argument, but I think it actually works against them. In their least rational and most emotionally traumatised state of mind one might do something equally stupid and irrational, such as attempt to bargain with a non existent higher power. That is basically what the argument is saying. Now, to me, that doesn’t say much for people who do it in a safe familiar situation where they don’t have the excuse to behave so irrationally.

          I think the more general sense of the claim is that all atheists already believe in God, and are just lying about it or perhaps in extreme twisted denial during peacetime. Facing the horrors of war is supposed to have scared us into admitting what we already knew.

            It’s basically just sophistry. Almost as bad as Pascal’s Wager (one is better off acting as if they believe in God even if they don’t because the ‘stakes’ are so high). But anyway, the “atheist in a foxhole” saying is just a common misconception amongst religious believers, so they can continue to believe that their beliefs are universal.

            It reminds me of someone who tried to use a similar kind of sophistry to claim that science was “faith-based”. His reasoning, such as it was, was that science was forced to make certain assumptions, and then presuming that one had to have ‘faith’ in those assumptions. Ergo, science is faith-based, and atheists (who ‘believe’ in science) were faith-based believers.

              Actually, Pascal’s Wager is, “If you think Christianity is a good and healthy way to live, you have a lot to gain from living it if it’s the real deal, so why not be a Christian anyhow?” It actually drives “true” Christians lolnutz, because if you’re not “the Elect,” or you are in it because there is something to be gained aside from acknowledgement of the love of God and obedience to His divine plan, you’re not a “real” Christian. (But setting fire to homosexuals and venerating wealth above people, that’s totally cool.)

              I kind of think that the “no atheists in foxholes” is just as much an insult to religious people as it is to atheists, as it does tend to suggest that religion is a fear-based adrenaline reaction, roughly as noble as pooping one’s pants.

              My proposal: I won’t hold the idiocy of the noisy/proselytizing Christians against the usually-pretty-okay Christians on the street; I won’t hold the smug-about-it rudeness of the sexist Dawkinsites against the usually-pretty-cool atheists; and I hope you will judge me based upon my own stupidities without tarring all pagans with the same brush (or believing anything you hear about us on television unless they’re saying that Charmed is an emetic).

        Yeah, she probably just thought that Joyce had a sex dream – and that’s probably the part of the dream Joyce is thinking about too. Her reaction to Ethan in yesterday’s strip did not look like ‘oh god he’s going to rape me’.
