I hardly pray actually, only when something bad has happened to me, the ones close to me or people everywhere (cfr. the tsunami disaster or 9/11). I promise to be a better person myself then if He helps out the others...

I have my own way of believing, I don't read the bible for instance. But if I'm struggling, I usually go to my grandmother's grave and talk to her and to God...It's a way of praying to I guess...

PRaying is pointless in reality.

^^disagree...

I pray for family and friends all the time, i pray for those people that hate my guts in reality, i pray that i can stop fist fighting BOYS, i wish some people weren't in pain therefore i pray for them too, some people on this site that told me some deep issues i pray for them EVERY single night.. I pray to God that when there isn't any trials going on, so when i get to the "trial" stage i already feel confident God would pull me through.. You don't have to get ostentatious with it, you can pray in your time.. if you don't think there is a God, i already prayed for you since i was a lil' shorty.. so smile :thumbup:

distilled 02-04-05 02:15 PM

Disagree^

What does praying actually do, hardly anything at all. Unless you pray then think, wait I can do that shit myself, then go out and do it, and be like 'God Gave me the power to buy this water!' Some shit like that.

I rarely pray, mainly because I dont think you can actually talk to god like that, if there even is a god, the whole praying concept is pointless.

~Lady Fiya~ 02-04-05 02:28 PM

^^ok, you don't have to pray i respect your opinion and all but put it this way, you're already "prayed" for....... :thumbup: and lol @ you sayin God give me the power to buy this water.. most of the time when people pray it's when they feel it's something beyond their control like relationships, people pray that their marriages stay together.. whether it was "meant to be" we may never know.. but eh, i respect ya stand point, but i still disagree, respectfully.. lol

distilled 02-04-05 02:31 PM

lol, I see where your comin from, but praying for things like relationships, also, really is down to willpower.

I do agree that praying might help, but only because when someone prays for that thing, they believe god will help them and they have a better attitude towards it and sometimes help the situation themselves.

the only way I'd change my views is if something unexplainable happened.

Like, I pray for a new house, and that same day, I get a new house, lol, I dunno, but see what I mean tho?

loving the feedback.

prayer in the sense of non believers, is hopeful.
prayer in the sense of believers is either traditional or respectful.

im with distilled, i believe that if....

your dad had a heart attack. and your mom prayed he would be healed.
and 2 days later he was almost completely healed... i believe it wasnt
the act of god, but it was going to happen anyways. no matter whether
you prayed or not. word?

but i have mad repsect for people who pray.
becuse they have so much more faith than i do.

distilled 02-04-05 02:48 PM

I'm sort of on the same lines.

It's not that I dont have faith, I just have faith in different things.

Cannibal Fetus 02-04-05 02:50 PM

I pray that, one day...a thousand babies drifted from the sky into my window, and I could have my wicked way's with em' for the rest of eternity!
