I pray to the ocean.


You pray to water????

Roll Eyes


That reminded me of something. Remember World Youth Day 2008? I was doing the Bondi Bronte walk and noticed some youngsters holding some kind of service on the rocks, and I noticed they had a foam box and it got my curiosity.

I got as close as I could without looking stalky and inside the box were....wait for it... LOBSTERS! Live lobsters.

They were letting them go into the water and praying for them. Seriously....WTF

I was so tempted to go home for my snorkeling kit and re-catch them Smiley


Did these lobsters have eyes???  Tongue


I'm going to say yes, but do they feel pain?

I don't pray to anyone or anything. I take responsibility for my own actions.
If prayer actually worked there would be no kids dying of cancer or poverty.

If God has a divine plan then prayer isn't going to change that.

Perhaps the most absurd sight is when sports people make a prayer before a game. Is God really going to intervene in a sports game yet leave kids to die of cancer, die in wars and die in poverty?

Prayer is nothing but an ancient superstition

I pray to my computer that is in my office. 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. I pray to my computer that is in my office. It makes me good money and that money buys me all sorts of happinesses in life. Money buys me happiness that God never can provide.

I pray to the one and only God, the God I have never seen, I don’t even know his name, the God that calls himself “I am”.

The God that came down to Earth as the man Jesus and called himself “the son of man” who also died a horrible death at the hands of his own creation as a man and not a god, all we have is his testament.

That’s the God I pray to.

Vulcan,
The rapture will happen soon be prepared. Know and believe that Jesus died on the cross for your sins and sins of the world shed his blood and rose three days later from the grave and went back to heaven to prepare a place. Turn away from your sins and ask forgiveness and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Personal Saviour. God will forgive your sins no matter what they are.

It is ok Sir Bobby. I was being sardonic I think. I totally believe in God. But like everyone I too have to sepnd much of my existence almost praying like to my work. thankfully God gives me strength to overcome it and treat it with some humour at least. Jesus died for all of us and even for those who do not embrace his light. He died for their freedome to do so. Jesus loves all and even recently he embraced the love of those who have had to live in the darkness with their sexuality difference. Jesus loves Homosexuals too. They are more than worthy to be respected and loved by all.

Jesus does not like homosexuals.
He might be prepared to forgive them if they give up their
devilish ways and are truly repentant.

If you truly understand Jesus and what he taught. then you will realise the difference of what Jesus taught and what the Churches taught afterwards. Listen to Jesus. Not just what the religion teaches you. Jesus forgave everyone Sir Bobby. Even homosexuals. He thought they were worthy to be forgiven and he died for their sins too because they were worthy to him.

I don't recall Jesus ever mentioning homosexuals.
certainly they are hardly mentioned at all in the new Testament, certainly not directly if I recall correctly.
