I wanna play.
1) Nothing the bible says can be considered true simply because the bible says it is. All quoting that book will get you is a lot of mockery. If you can't back up your claims with solid evidence born of reality then don't waste our time (that includes your own).
2) As everyone else has pointed out, it might be best if you keep your prayers to yourself. It does nothing to further a discussion and only serves to irritate people. If you tell me that you are praying for me, I'll just laugh at you.
3) If you quote someone (anyone), credit them. Other than that, so long as you don't preach, I don't care who you quote. Just remember that quoting someone else's opinion is not the best way to take part in a discussion. Why do we care what some random pastor thinks? We already think he's wrong. He IS a pastor, afterall.

2) Pray for others? It's my Christian duty to pray for others, so can I do the same on this forum?
3) Use quotations from Authority to support my views? My Pastor is my source of inspiration and knowledge so I would like to use some references from him in discussions.
