I don't think you should be praying for someone in a thread unless you are sure that person wants you to. You are treading a very fine line.





interesting....huh



and ...indifferent



i think it is highly uncool !!!!...:angry:


i don't think you should EVER noway

enter a person's thread,huh

with ill intent ... devil


and whatever the initial intent ...huh

you should never enter ...noway

unless you are absolutely sure drinker

that the person starting the thread flowerforyou

appreciates you " Barging " into it huh noway sick






actually that is incorrect. In a public forum you have the right to enter any thread you choose and post a dissenting opinion if you like without threat of reprisal.
So there.




so there ???? hahhahahaha laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh



i haven't heard that since junior high school


my point was and still is...

why don't you apply the same courtesy drinker

you wish others to bestow upon you flowerforyou

to your own life ...huh






just because you have the right to do something drinker


doesn't necessarily make it right ....noway


and you do have a bad habit sick

of following me around the threads....huh



and you know our views clash flowerforyou


so why don't you go play drinker


in some one else's yard...happy drinker flowerforyou

To the most high God, and to those who watch after me in this life, thank you for your protections from others who would attempt to bind my sovereignty and free will with their misguided prayers and incantations. Send to me only the purest of truth, freedom and wisdom.

JB flowerforyou




Amen to that.

Dear God, please save me from the religious fanatics! flowerforyou

If you are stupid enough to walk in a mine field don't ask God to protect you from your own wanton stupidity. Free will. You chose to get into this discussion. Try the tolerance for others that you preach from your soap box. As hypocritical as it may seem. bigsmile

I have no problem with a family praying. If they come to my table and start praying over me, I have a problem.

Is there anything in that distinction that is not clear to you?

Praying is proseltyzing? If you see a family praying for their meal at a restaurant do you feel threatened there as well? Maybe reach over and rub the kid's face in his plate all the while screaming "Stop it! I gots mah rahts!" Pleeeeease. Get a grip on yourself. Who made you the constitutional bouncer?


ah, I met your good friend Smirnoff last night. Charming fellow, as are you.

I have no problem with a family praying. If they come to my table and start praying over me, I have a problem.

Is there anything in that distinction that is not clear to you?

Perhaps if you were to back off on the Smirnoff a bit you wouldn't appear as you do. Can you show me in the Bill of Rights where it states that you have the right to not be offended? Either jump or get off the freakin' bridge lady, you are holding up traffic.

And how is it that I appear? I don't like being prayed over. Does that make me drunk? And the Smirnoff reference was for my good friend Rapunzel. he is a croney of hers. In fact I do not drink, not that that has anything to do with this.

I was not referring to the Bill of Rights so much as site rules.I have the right to post an opposing view without fear of being attacked. I have the right to be here; you can't make me leave. I have not attacked anyone. I have disagreed. That is not against site rules.

I bind that spirit of confusion ...and spirit of unbelief.... and spirit of deception ...and that lying spirit, OFF you Abra....right now...in the Mighty Name of Jesus...who is able to Save and deliver to the uttermost.

I command every foul spirit that has hindered you long enough from recieving the TRUTH ....to GO in Jesus Mighty Name ,Amen.


Morningsong,

The above incantation is what I am referring to .

You call it "prayer" I know better.

Just because you pray to what you believe is the one true God, does not make it any different from any other incantation or love spell upon another free willed person who has chosen for himself what he will believe.

You are not allowed to pray for people in that respect unless they give you permission or ask for you to do so.

Even the angels will not interfere with people without first being asked to do so.

What you are doing here is witchcraft plain and simple. It is witchcraft because you seek to effect a person's personal life and choice. You are treading where you were not invited.

Let people be who they choose to be.





Intercessory prayer? Ummmmm, I looked at the forum rules and could not find anything pertaining to someone praying on the forum whether it be to God, Frank the guy down the street, or to the alien farmers that are raising you for food. bigsmile


Leave Frank out of this please laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh

Then perhaps if you were to elaborate concerning the Smirnoff comment in the first place you wouldn't have gotten your finger stuck in your nose. I did not say you couldn't post or should go away. Neither should morning song. The rules..... please read them, do NOT say anything about praying. YOU said you were offended. I asked you to show me where it states that you have the right to not be offended. Twist it, turn it, but the question still remains. Who made you the bouncer? What if I find your avitar ofensive? I don't have the right to not be offended either. As long as no rules or laws are being broken I simply walk away and find my happiness elsewhere rather than forcing my surroundings to please me. drinker <- Diet Pepsi. flowerforyou

I think the problem is that people can't seem to understand the difference between belief and truth.

Just because you believe something does not mean it's true; no matter how much you wish it was, or how many times you proclaim it. It's still just your opinion, no more valid than mine.


Yes. But in and of itself this confusion of belief and truth is not problematic.

Only when others are required to share your beliefs as truths have you created a problem. Or when you "threaten" them for their unbelief. Most believers say that they are not trying to threaten or intimidate or "force" their beliefs on others.

But, what exactly do they think "you will answer to my god one day" or "another will judge you" etc. are? They are threats, they are intimidation. If thats not your intent than don't say these silly things...

Peace to all, regardless of your beliefs. flowerforyou

It seems to me that there is a disadvantage to being too honest. Some people mistake your honesty for hostility, for one thing. Other people have carefully crafted lies that they live with and they resent the intrusion of your logic.

On the other hand, there are some people who act very sweet and nice but when you don't agree with them, they get testy. When you do try to discuss things on their merits, they call you names and imply that you are just being nasty.


Do you think it is better to be honest or to sugar-coat things with lies?

(your post from earlier) I am simply being too honest I guess. :wink:

All the armies that have ever marched,

and all the navies that ever sailed,

and all the parliaments that ever sat,

and all the kings that ever reigned,

put together,

have not affected the life of man

upon this earth as powerfully

as this “One Solitary Life.”

(Author Anonymous)



Actually this isn't true. It wasn't just "One Solitary Life". That's not true in the least.

The reason this man is so popular is because it is claimed that he was the incarnation of the God of Abraham which was already a very powerful religion at the time this man was born.

This man is nothing in and of himself. He only has meaning when he stands on the shoulders of an entire religion that preceded him for millennia. This is especially true of his death which would have absolutely no meaning whatsoever if it wasn’t for a belief in a God who is appeased by blood sacrifices in the first place.

If people are going to make proclamations about this man the least they can do is be truthful in what they proclaim.

Lying isn’t nice. ohwell

It most certainly wasn’t just “One Solitary Life”. This is extremely misleading and completely false. This was just one character in a whole complex religion that dates back thousands of years before this man was ever born. Far from being “One Solitary life” it's a whole complex religion.

I see no reason to lie about it.

What's wrong with the telling the truth?


This is just so disrespectful
Probably this is not true for you, and that is fine. But for her and for many others is true.
I will never understand this lady just expressed her feelings towards the Lord, why this should be so offensive? I just don't get it.
I so want to say too many other things, but is just waste of time dealing with arrogance and disrespect.
