Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.

My sense of humor is fine. So is my ability to detect bullshit, especially when I'm familiar to the artist who produces it.

RE: Answered prayer
YOU TOLD US TO A/S/K!!!!

So I thought I'd give it a try. I didn't know God has wax in his ears, I said:

"The fuck Drich tires me and is getting to me."

He heard:

"The truck Drich drives - get him for me."

I ain't praying again that's for damn sure. Its way too dangerous!!!!

In order for me to have believe/was serious about what I said about God answering your prayers actually not prayer but petitions.. I would have to also then believe that your Petitions had actual weight or pull with God.

If the prayers of whom God considers a righteous man (The righteous being those saved through faith, in Christ) will produce much, then what do you think the petitions of one who will not even acknoweledge God produce?

Going into this i know that your well or death wishes go as far as the top of your head when you petition God, if you do not believe or even Hate Him.
If that is the case what was I looking to say or do? Just have a laugh with you. I was expecting more (Read in your best vally girl voice) "We don't believe in god, so like... why would we pray to him??? Your logic is like totally bogus."

I did not get those responses, instead i God 'we would not pray to God about THOSE Things.' To which I say Hmmmmm. Thinking

To which I say there maybe hope for you all yet. Angel

I think I'll just cut & paste that to the thread where you just claimed you haven't called anybody names since your wife "corrected" you.

RE: Answered prayer
One of the main christian arguments is an answered pray. Have they ever thought of the actions of others or themselves may of actually solved the problem not god. Or maybe it was chance that something happened. What about all the times he didn't answer?. Be thankful for your friends family, health professionals("answered" prays are usually related to health), they helped you or saved the life not god.

That's the thing about having an inscrutable god that only ever works behind the scenes and in "strange and mysterious ways." Prayer always works! Did you get what you prayed for? Let's check the score sheet:

-YES: god answered your prayer!
-NO: god answered your prayer!
-NOT SURE: god answered your prayer!

See? Prayer works!!!
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
