Those that are not interested can just sit there and observe the rights of others in action.

So you do not agree with Matthew 6:5?

I see you do not understand the verse, not even a little to use it in this argument. The verse is about hypocrites not about genuine prayer, get on track. That verse would apply to those who pray to other gods though, so for them,yes I would agree. You believe that verse refers to praying in public because you oppose public prayer, you should not try to use scripture against Christians who understand it's meaning.

Right back at you GC, right back at you. Except I would've spelled "won't" right.

Nice to see that the only faults you can find is my bad choice in a word. Really small of you, I find others misspelling all the time and never point it out, just consider them honest mistakes.

No one would be inflicting their prayer on others, that would be considered torture, I hardly would consider sitting through prayer torture. Though I'm sure you or someone else will say it is, no surprises here.
I like how you set up my answer to be rejected as nonsense before I gave it, dishonest a best, small at the very least. Believe what you wish, it want change the facts.

No, because I've had many theists say they would act a certain way in one post and then several posts later state the exact opposite. Evidence leads me to expect certain behaviours.

No dishonesty involved, just experience.

The point still stands. Why, when you can pray in your home, in your church, or quietly before the meeting, do you also feel you have the right to pray and, I will say it again, inflict it on others.

You MIGHT be one of those few theists who would sit by and quietly tolerate a prayer from a different religion, but there are many who aren't. But those would be the first to scream "persecution" if someone disrupted their prayer.

RJA

To have set my answer up for rejection before I made it you must believe I'm one of those who feed you contradictions in my statements, if I have it's been a mistake and I would like to see where I did so I can correct myself.

GC
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
