prayer is a way to be close to God. It's not about praying your problems away or changing Gods mind about anything. This is something that has been accepted in today's society, it's all about praying for self. Real Christians pray and sing to Christ because they are happy, and thankful of what Christ has done in there life.
jeffie, im an extremely happy person... life is very good... jeffie, i even donated and ran in the st jude marathon last weekend.. i donate and do what i can because im a good person.. i dont need god in order to be good, unlike the religious have been brainwashed into thinking...
.... You don't need God to be a good person eh? How would you know what good is without God ?
jeffie, try going to a childrens research hospital and seeing sick and dying kids and ask yourself if there is really a god that is punishing these innocent kids like this... the answer really becomes rather clear that nothing is in control, buddy... what upsets me is that there are so many adults who still believe in the proven impossible... its a mental illness that starts at childhood, when religion is forced upon innocent children and they are threatened to believe this or that...
This is mans doing, its the price of sin. What about the 500,000 children who died with Hiroshima, or died in the take over of iraq ? How many died in the holocaust ? There's so much destruction going on but all you come up with, is God is doing all this at his own pleasure. Ridiculous
as long as the religious continue to ignore the proven facts surrounding evolution and proven scientific facts that completely contradict miracles and other impossible myths in holy books, earths age, time of man etc, Jeffie (which you obviously know little to nothing about if you think evolution has been disproven) , then there will be a need to try and help people see those facts for the truths that they are... there will be a need to show people how gullible they have been, how much brutality is in the immoral holy books(that never gets taught in church) and how religion continues to kill.
