Hopefully this thread will serve a much needed purpose in the religious forums.
It's a forum where you can talk about anything at all, instead of clogging up threads that were intended to talk about a particular topic.
And we all know how easy it is to get emotional when someone attacks a belief or deity of your choice.
So - Go for it everyone.
Get your buns, and get ready to start throwing.
Or your Holy Water, and start splashing.
there's NOTHING off topic here!
Here's something to get you started.If there is a God, who does he pray to?
Hmmmmm, and why would God pray to usman, I wonder? And are you even sure God is a "he"? One of our student ministers starts her prayer with, "Our Father and Mother in heaven..."
We are talking god here who doesn't bow to anyone, he is the big boss,I bow to him.
Eric - he doesn't pray. For one ... that's for the little people. Not Deities.
And for two, he's far too busy administrating. And muttering under his breath.
That is a good idea. Let the godless stew in it.
Oh before I go here's a question for your thread Eric.
Why do the godless keep starting threads to try to antagonize different religions?
Okay two questions.
Do the godless try to antagonize different religions because it is mandated to them by the League of the Militant Godless?
Mark may know about this last question.
That is not a fair statement Mike, even the 'godly' ones do it and that is even worse.
I think that you are confusing the "godless" with those who don't partake in organised religion.
Either that, or deliberately using the term as a putdown.
To quote yet again one of my favourite sayings:
I don't have a problem with god.
It's his fan club that I can't stand.
Bye now.
Why does the name of this thread remind me hot crossed buns slathered in butter or something? It must be in Australian...
Make a bet this thread is taken over by SERIOUS religionists by the end of the night or beginning of the morning or whatever?
Here, lol.... Does Islam have an evil contingent or component? I think it does.
Can't speak for Islam, but I do believe you may be right about the serious ones. I, for one, will check back to see....
Bound to be :-)
That's part of the master plan.
While they're all banging their fists (or other body parts) on the table in here, they won't be hanging around elsewhere
@kmackey:
I'm sure that LOTS of people are praying to you on hubPages. Especially since your hawt new avatar appeared
Why do you assume that God must pray to anyone or anything. If there is a creative force in the universe, surely it is infinite.
I am God! Bow and worship me or burn in the fiery pits of hell for ever..ever..ever..err..rr..rr.
You mean John Deere, yeah I heard he is the tractor god.
yep tryin to keep up with your colgate changes nah I dont have enough of me, me, me shots on file -you win the photo shoot..
just not the grammer section.
I feel the shockwaves from other hubbers to this statement will be intense, but I can handle it.
okay, okay, okay, I got it.
Satan is bad because he cannot kill anyone but god is good because he can command Satan to kill.
He can?
wonder what you been reading lately? lol
who cares they all create the same type of people.
I don't believe that for a moment. I read that book and I'm nothing like a fundie.
Are you ever going to change your avatar back?
Aww thank-you for taking the time to notice me and comment
Back to what? if its the dress in the other one ,just borrow it, I got more.
I don't know but anything is better than the one you got up.
I just like the name of the thread. Genius idea behind it, too. I suspect a good farnarkling match may break out at any moment.
Awww. Thanks.
And I'll see if Dave Sorenson is available to lead the farnarkling team.
Mike, you are missing the point as usual. Should be around more often, you know. Eric opened this thread to get the guys out of his other thread, they sort of ruined it with off-top argument
My apology Eric. I just came to this thread again from the link that you left on the Nigerian thread.
Man I'm just 5 pages through that 30 page thread. Does it ever get back on the original topic? I'd hate to read through the whole 30 pages to find it doesn't.
It occassionally gets dragged back on topic for a few posts.
fiercycj seems to have disappeared while trying to prove that this is all a beatup. Not a peep from him.
Most positive thing anyone can do is donate to Stepping Stones, the organisation who is caring for these children.

thanks for your interest.

How do you remain patient when it seems as if everyone else is being blessed but you?There are several things that I've been praying about but at the top of my list, a new job. I know that the economy is bad but many of my friends have landed the job of their dreams while I'm still waiting on...

If god is all-knowing, why do you pray?according to religious people, their god knows all, what they think, what they are going to do etc. so why do people pray to it if it already knows what they are thinking?

Does praying for peace help?Every since I was a child attending Catholic school I was taught to pray for peace and now as an adult I hear everyone call for prayers to end the violence and killing in the world. Do you think praying for peace helps?

We have argued back and forth about the merits or demerits of sharing the Christian gospel on this forum. Someone even started a thread in an effort to prove me wrong when i said that a VOCAL MAJORITY opposed the idea of quoting bible etc.So if you dont want to hear about bible and Jesus read...
