Prayer isn't going to work, but physically assisting me with a problem, will. It's as if prayer is helping the person doing the praying, feel better about themselves, like making them think they actually did something. There's no excuse for that. If a person can't help, say so. But don't goad yourself into thinking that praying for me works, because in my 45 Years on this earth, not once has that ever worked for me.
Omg yes! I mentioned on Facebook that I might not be able to have kids but we are going to try and two of my good friends were like I will pray for you. I was like wtf y'all see everything atheist related that I post, you see that I don't like being told bless you, why in the world do you think I want you to pray for me?! Them knowing my views on it and still saying it is rather insulting instead of what they act like it is... Supportive help. Pfffft.

My husband is Catholic and I'm atheist. I know difference in beliefs don't have to be negative. I also know that religion can be a good thing when giving someone a reason to live or behave (behaving for Christ isn't as good as behaving just to be a good human but hey take what we can get right?) And I know that living in the bible belt is hard as an atheist but not dangerous like other parts of the world so I am lucky. Christians are known to have a bloody past. Most of the wars stem from religious beliefs and a lot of those beliefs deal with the Christian god. I wanted to take part in the original topic of this thread but there is so much more involved now and honestly I can't take anyone seriously that thinks a demon possessed someone and they helped expel it.
If im going to believe the Bible, I might as well believe all of it. Else im a hypocrite.
I feel like there are a LOT of rules yalls bible tells y'all to follow that most don't. Trivial shit that no longer makes any sense. How do you go about following that stuff without being a hypocrite or do you follow it to the letter?
