An atheist known for satirical videos on Christianity recently released an update to “The Story of Suzie” video, which depicts Christians as delusional for praying to God for help amid tragedies.

The animated video features a devout religious character named Suzie who sees divine love and intervention everywhere while the narrator suggests otherwise.

Before going to bed, Suzie prays asking Jesus to heal the sick and ease the suffering in the world. But when she wakes up, “the problems of the world were still there,” said the narrator. Suzie rationalizes the result by believing that “somehow it was all part of God’s plan.”

Produced by The Thinking Atheist, the video implies that while Suzie continues to seek God when there is violence, natural disasters, or illness, her prayers only serve to bring her comfort, not produce any real effect.

Dr. Normal L. Geisler, author of If God, Why Evil?, said the video contains a lot of misconceptions.

“You look at all of that [and] you sympathize with Susie because you think they (disasters, illnesses, etc.) are evil,” he said. “But if it’s evil, then there must be a standard for good. If there is a crooked line in this world then there must be a straight line. If there is a straight line then there must be God.”
