(August 3, 2012 at 6:06 pm)Faith No More Wrote: Drich, nothing you said there explains why rehearsed prayers are bad besides this one.
They just are not what Christ/God considers to be Prayers.

Quote:And what's with this "indebted" nonsense anyway? We all know True Christians™ say "as we forgive those who trespass against us."
well maybe the True Christians could try Reading a New King James Version or just a standard King James version:

http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?sea...rsion=NKJV

Which btw Indebted/tresspass against us, has been translated from the same greek word:ὀφείλω opheilō it means: to owe.

Catholic versions change this word to tresspass (which means the same without the same bite) because then forgiveness becomes a matter between you and God, leaving preists with less to do in their booths...
