Prayer Death

[Pippy]

Yeah, Bill Hicks was an absolute genius. Loved his work.

No, because there almost certaintly is no God. Unless you can somehow magicially evidence him for me.

You used to be cool EvF, what happened? You magically evidence her away first.

Of course you don't claim that to be possible yourself, because God has no shape or form, he's invisible and intangible, etc, etc, etc ...(how convient (and pointless and useless and gratuitious)).

I didn't say she was intangible and invisible. I'm not sure an invisible intangible god would be very convenient. It sounds like your Kyu now, picking on me for your beef with other theists, with Christians.

Hopefully you next post is more in your kind and respectful nature.

I think he means pantheist with a female face?

That would be incorrect. Thank you for playing.

I can believe you have made people spechless before. Your ignorance just left me that way.

Less and less impressed.

I'm not afraid of non religious people. I am afraid of religious people.

I am also afraid of religious people. To be more fair, I am afraid of fanatics, of which there can be an atheist variety. I am not a religious person. Nor am I someone to be afraid of.

Have you seen any Atheists blowing up abortion centers?

I don't see what that has to do with what we are discussing. Talk about Bill Maher more. I don't like being associated with fundys that blow up abortion clinics...

How many Atheists fly air planes into buildings or strap bombs to their chests and kill a handfull of people including themselves?

I don't know. But the terrorist thing is interesting. The suicide bomber. Where does a suicide bomber come from? What is the process that turns a young child into a older suicide bomber? I am very curious as to your response.

You know what I mean when I say prayer doesn't work.

Yes, and that's why I disagree.

God can't make an amputee grow new legs through prayer and he can't make a bind person see. He can't make a mentally retarded kid suddenly not be mentally retarded.

I couldn't agree more. These a great examples of what prayer CANNOT do. I would never purport that the power of prayer included goring new legs. You must misunderstand prayer.

Back when I sort of believed in God around the age of 10 I asked him to give me big boobs when I grew up.

I feel terrible for you about that. That you felt you needed big boobs, and that you felt moved to ask god for them. That is also something she cannot control... Very sad.

It didn't work...I ended up having to spend eight grand for a doctor to make them bigger.

Also very unfortunate. I would have liked to see you grow comfortable with the way you were... But you choice. I'm getting less and less impressed.

They just stopped right in the middle of the room and got down right there. As if they were praying it would be ok and magically God would shield them from the tornado.

I maintain. I am not the Christians you guys don't like in your lives. Please don't argue with me about what the Christians you don't like do, because I am not them. I have never been in a tornado. I have been in hurricanes, and I did not pray.

You are fun to talk to, but kind of gross and sad.

Thank you for enlightening.
