Christian prayer makes sense under my hypotheses that god is so old he's senile. ;)

The christians have to constantly conjole him into doing "his will" in order to gain what they want. Otherwise he'd just wander off in heaven and get lost somewhere.

He'll turn up at the nearest Starbucks, so it's okay.
Extraordinary claims of the bible don't even have ordinary evidence.

Outside of a dog, a book is my favorite companion. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read.

Magic isn't here, LoriPink, but he has been as hanging out over at ATT (http://www.atheistthinktank.net/thinktank/index.php) and posting occasionally.Yesterday even. He'd love to hear from you, I'm sure. And check out the "christmas" thread they've got going over there. He posted photos of his wife and kids. He's way too happy...
The question I get asked by religious people all the time is, without God, what's to stop me from raping all I want? And my answer is: I do rape all I want. And the amount I want is zero. And I do murder all I want, and the amount I want is zero. - Penn Jillette

He's definitely pushing for a defriendtion, because he has taken to photographing himself naked at arm's length.

Discussing this forum with my wife recently (she thinks I'm wasting my time, but anyway...), she had this analagy:

Often when we encounter a homeless person who asks for money, our inclination is to instead buy them a meal. Not what they asked for, but what we decided was best for them.

It's possible to apply that to God with any sort of prayer request - He will do what He knows to be in our best interests, even if we don't agree or see the reason.

Just a thought. Have a good weekend.
Actually that's really old news. Good for her if she just thought of that...
