Do you pray?

Shortiee said:
I do pray and I pray to God. Not Jesus.. he's not god as I have heard many pray to him as ..I pray for different things. A good vain,to be able to hit,for my fibromyalgia not to kick my ass on a daily and sometimes just to say "how's it going and how are u doing" to God..not cool to only pray when we want or need something

Haha so praying to God is like when you have to hang around and talk to your guy even though you've already got your drugs?

I was brought up Catholic and because of the strict upbringing it completely put me off. I consider myself agnostic

I'm the same. I think I lost my faith when I was 13 and figured out what masturbation was, then was subsequently told it was a sin.

Also, the dogma of the Catholic faith is extreme often times.

I too am simply agnostic now. I want to believe but need miracles in my life to show proof I guess.


Back to the OP, I do pray at times. Usually in moments of extreme pain, i.e. last night I was having intense abdominal pain that had me moaning where it woke my wife up. I prayed as I sat on the can hoping a turd or something would come out so I could be at peace.

I also attended church regularly a few months back when I was in some difficult training for a job. I prayed often that i would be able to handle the training. In the end, I failed, and while I don't blame God, I find it hard to go back to him after what's happened over the course of my life.

I'm empathetic with the idea of prayer though. We all pray, in our own ways. I would never chastise someone for their faith or beliefs so long as those beliefs don't conflict with the sovereignty of other human beings.

It never fails me how people think they have you figured out by a 2dimensional view of a person.
Yes some of what you said are aspects of me & you missed a lot out though.

The issue with me to like Gabe the dog is what?
"following internet occult trends" Give me an example here? I don't FYI "follow internet occult trends" to make it clear, I don't give a fuck about 99% of them I just like some of the really dark shit out there. I posted a documentary on AUM does that mean I follow them & wanna go around letting off gas on the subway ffs?

Would it please you more if I changed my username to "MDPV nutcase, wanking off for 6 hours?" or "a-PVP 8 day smoke session?"

You shown yourself up to be one hell of a prick to say the least.

What use is there in praying to imaginary cunts?

Isn't this the same guy that used to toss around Nordic Runes if I remember right?
You'll not get access to the hall of Asgard with that attitude FUBAR.

Just because I've never seen a tornado does that mean they aren't real?........Go figure!

When it comes to praying, nothing wrong with that. You could pray to the shower head and probably come out with a better vibe. I think the results come from a quiet medatative state as opposed to divine intervention. Something, something placebo effect.
 
Yeah when you actually, wholeheartedly believe in your prayer, it is more likely to become true through a self fulfilling prophecy. No secret there.
