The primary reason for this thread was to taunt Christians about unanswered prayer...
The assumption being that the supreme court's decision to force the last dozen or so states into accepting gay marriage was on the foremost of every God fearing Christian's mind...
I simply pointed out that according to the book of Revelation the world (you 'good' people) are supposed to embrace iniquity till God says He has Had enough, and put an end to the reign of man. I also pointed out that even if there was a hold out group praying for the last 12 states, we have been commaned to pray "Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven." In such a way as to supperceed everything else we ask for as That request was mandated by Christ Himself in our one and only model prayer. Next I pointed out how the events of revelation is the full fillment of that prayer.
For the perpetually slow among you, here is a recap: I wasn't saying the end times are here. I was pointing to the fact that debauchery like gay marriage was apart or a key element that triggered the end times which again full fills "Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven" Part of the Lord's pray that Christians have been praying from the time of Christ. This is the 'answer' to the OP's short sighted letter that asks why didn't God answer our prayers. Again He did, just not the one you assumed we are all praying for.
I think that this is the main point of the OP
Quote:There are thousands upon thousands of these sorts of stories all over the world. Christians doing horrible things to anyone and everyone they disagree with and using your precious god as the almighty justification to be ignorant violent bigots. Maybe you can’t catch a break any more because your god is just really sick of you.
Christians do all sorts of nasty things that goes against their supposed faith. That was why I posted the verses about helping the poor. All through the bible god orders his followers to help the needy and claims to be pissed when they don't. If god was real, he would be mad at his followers not atheists or same sex couples.
