Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire A question on prayer

Perhaps to question and discuss the efficacy of prayer?.....or is everyone supposed to nod their heads in unison like children in a kindergarten class that teaches faith?

It must seem easy to whine and cry, point the finger, make accusations in the pretense of making a point when you don't even understand a word that was said, but it just makes you look bad.

Being incapable of addressing the issues that are raised, you whine and wail in denial like a child.

Or better yet, pick up some reading material on science, philosophy and history that is not creationist propaganda.

Did you understand a word of it? Apparently not.

Logic is not your thing. Reason is not your thing.

Your preferences lie in myth and magic, which you believe is reality, that this is how the world works, that your God and your theology real and true while anyone who does not subscribe to your brand of faith is wrong.

Do you know what a contradiction is?

A contradiction is where there are two opposing claims, wher both cannot be true. If one is true, the other must be false, or both are false, but both cannot be true.


Now if your God is Love, and love seeks to not only cause harm, but prevent it from happening, then this God cannot deliberately create Evil.


Yet we are told in the very same book;


"I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things." (Isaiah 45:7, KJV)

"The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.'' Proverbs 16:4


Problem of Evil: "If I could stop a man from raping a child, I would. That's the difference between me and your god." Tracie Harris

Why does someone who doesn't pray engage in a thread about prayer?

Because an atheist knows everything about the God who doesn’t exist?

I see what you did there.

It was Christians in that article who killed their child due to their batshitery.

I see a different in atheistic types. There is the scientific type who thinks little of religion and religions and tends to view everything in terms of material evolution. They don’t get their emotions involved even though they view themselves as possessing superior knowledge.

Then, there is the type that presents itself in this and like threads. Emotional, inconsistent, a projection of knowing about religious beliefs yet displaying ignorance. My impression of this type is that they have had a bad experience with religion somewhere along the way and, try as they may, can never fully escape the pull.

Atheists sometimes have to talk to the theists on their terms to show the absurdity of it all, that's why we mention gods.

Theists claim to know all about their gods while they can't demonstrate the truth to any of it, and so there's endless versions because anything goes. Unfalsifiability is a fantasizer's wank material.

Yes, that is what the aussie news depicted....other papers in aussieland describe that religion as a CULT....Police said the cult was made up of three families, including other children. Cult members describe themselves as "The Saints"......and I say again, Demons/satanists/atheist are trying to dominate the world....it is a great battle between good and evil.....so, are you a demon?

The difference between a religion and a cult is its size and general acceptance: Consensus Reality.

Christianity is a cult.
