Prayer...

[dusken]

Yeah but the characters in the old testament have no problem killing under God's command. Notice the difference? Killing and stealing for your own benefit: BAD. Killing and stealing when God says so: Perfectly acceptable.

What is your point? God never intervened in that manner because he was asked to; he did because he was God. Nobody ever said, "Please God, allow me to phuck my dead brother's wife."

Such is the trouble with those who speak for god from the jewish or muslim persuation. If some religious leader says "hey take this land it is yours because the old testament says so" or "kill the infidels they are shameless" the mobs don't ask questions. If a christian preacher told me to hurt somone I would be very puzzled.

If, in the New Testament, it said "kill if your priest tells you to and do not ask why," you would probably not be so puzzled.

The idea of prayer seems to be inconsistent in the context of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. Might it not suggest a lack of trust in God's plan? Might it not combat the idea of free will, which God allegedly granted to humans? Might it not ask for favoritism when all should be equal? Might it not suggest that God does not know you believe unless you tell him so? Am I missing something?

.. LOVE without asking anything .. is my idea about praying .. it's simple
any comments ?

[dusken]

Comments? Yes. This is the Intellectual Forum and you have no place here.

I have no place here, you're absolutly right But do you think prayer have a place here in your " Intellectual Forum " ?

[dusken]

I have no place here, you're absolutly right

If you agree, you should not be posting.

But do you think prayer have a place here in your " Intellectual Forum " ?

Prayer itself? No. But the questioning of the philosophical basis of something, regardless of what it is, does.

You are right I don't belong here... but as long as your thread is available, I will try to say what I decide to say...in anyway I can...
Ok so what is your conclusion about prayer?
Is prayer the noise you make with your mouth? Or maybe without making a noise with your mouth... but still make a noise in your head, maybe..?
Show me your philosophical basis plz...

Another thread bites the dust.

Holy shyt. I think I figured out what you do: you open up a thread, you pick out one word and formulate an entire nonsensical post in response to that one word. My initial post is all you need to understand what I am saying. Stop responding to me.

[töö____müch]

I did what you're saying .. "about your initial post" and I responded .. So maybe if you can do the same and "understand my first reply", maybe you too all you need is to understand what I am saying ..
But why should I stop responding to you, it will be like I'm not respecting you, but of course you can stop responding first .. then we'll see
And btw, to figure out what I do .. you have to be me .. so untill then maybe you should stop figuring things for now.. thanks

I think for the first time ever I will utilize the "ignore" function.

[töö____müch]

I am trying to understand why you're Ignoring ..
Be happy, forget about me
gtg to sleep.. I would stay and play ignoring .. but I prefer sleeping, it's more healthy
