Imthatache might not have realized that I was being facetious.  My rapier wit sometimes eludes people.

Hey, kittin, if I pray hard enough, will you be my subbie?

OK but like you have to understand that God works in mysterious ways and if you don't have Christ in your heart no amount of prayer is going to help you anyway.


Could not add a thing to this....well said.



Do you think that those that do pray without Christ in their heart aren't going to be helped? Strange: so you dismiss the holistic power of prayer for the majority of the non-Christian world's population. Interesting.



tangldupinblue -> RE: Honestly...does prayer REALLY work? (8/1/2007 3:41:30 PM)

i guess it all boils down to how much faith you have in prayer to begin with...if you dont have faith you'll never believe in anything



michaelOfGeorgia -> RE: Honestly...does prayer REALLY work? (8/1/2007 3:43:33 PM)

again, it all comes down to that little word: "faith"

do you have faith in the government? if so...does it really work?

Does prayer really work???

Yes and no - and i don't really pray - but i was raised catholic so i have had experience!! Prayer works if you believe - but it is not believing that God or whatever Saint will fix the problem or find the ring or whatever - its simply that by believing something is possible you make it so. If you believe in God - you believe that he will help you achieve your goals and so you believe that your goals will be achieved - it is this belief that your goals will be achieved that actually achieves them for you. If your subconscious mind thinks that you will achieve something then in your mind that is reality and your subconscious will do whatever it takes to get this to happen in real life. So - what you believe in your mind becomes reality.
So in that way prayer does work if you have belief - but it is not the actual act of prayer that works (or the God part) its your belief in a positive outcome!!

Hope that makes sense to someone!!

Right, michael, it is very strange. I'm still trying to get my little blonde head around it.

Did you just use the word 'subbie'? Pray again :-) .



Lordandmaster -> RE: Honestly...does prayer REALLY work? (8/1/2007 4:07:58 PM)

Oh, I have better words than that in my vocabulary, but they're not fit for a public forum.

This is a place where people can say everything, you know that: they can even post neo-nazi prop!



Lordandmaster -> RE: Honestly...does prayer REALLY work? (8/1/2007 4:18:53 PM)

Darlin', what I'd call you would make any totalitarian choke on his dinner.

But I'd still respect you in the morning.  I'd even manage your modeling career.

Sometimes it's hard to believe that you Englishes invented English.



kittinSol -> RE: Honestly...does prayer REALLY work? (8/1/2007 4:23:24 PM)

And stuff.



kittinSol -> RE: Honestly...does prayer REALLY work? (8/1/2007 4:24:32 PM)

We're so todaly adaptable that way? It's uncanny? And like? Butt.



domiguy -> RE: Honestly...does prayer REALLY work? (8/1/2007 4:42:40 PM)

And like butt?  Of course I do.  Why don't you show off your pooper in your prof?



kittinSol -> RE: Honestly...does prayer REALLY work? (8/1/2007 4:47:39 PM)

Cos it's banned, domi. My butt's always covered in welts, and so it's never ever allowed a show.

I tried to bypass their strict rules once by over-exposing a shot: it didn't fool them. Whoever was watching.

Personally, in the light of the horrendous butt shots that are shown freely on cm, I would have passed mine, if it'd been up to me: it was tastefully welted, nothing horrendous, and man, did it look good? But I'm not one to brag.

PS: seriously, people, we go from a discussion on prayer to butts. How low can we go? J'adore!



domiguy -> RE: Honestly...does prayer REALLY work? (8/1/2007 4:51:31 PM)

How low can we go?  I bet The J-dude had a fairly nice hiney.



kittinSol -> RE: Honestly...does prayer REALLY work? (8/1/2007 5:04:53 PM)

Okay,  I admit, sometimes I have no idea what you're talking about. Who's the J-dude, and what does he have to do with anyone's bottom?

PS: j'ajoute un post-scriptum au cas ou le sarcasme ne soit pas compris.

PPS: and fark it, second edit... course, we could take it there, but seriously, what does it have to do with prayer? Fuck all. So... shall we hijack or create a new post on arses (because the few new ones out there aren't that good)?

Some of Gods greatest gifts, are unanswered prayers.




michaelOfGeorgia -> RE: Honestly...does prayer REALLY work? (8/1/2007 6:30:28 PM)
