Shadow, the way I see it, there are some people who believe that prayer helps, and they are trying to use that power to help someone who needs that help.

While I personally do not believe it accomplishes anything (other than to serve as a sort of a panacea-comfort), the truth is that I don't actually know anything either way on the subject.

Maybe there is a God and maybe there isn't. Maybe He answers prayers and maybe He doesn't. I don't know. I don't believe it myself, because I have never seen anything to indicate that this is the case -- but absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

I generally avoid the "Please pray for...." threads, if they are asking strictly for prayers, because I cannot contribute anything to them without being internally inconsistent and hypocritical. For me to pray for someone would constitute an act no different, in my mind, from performing a voodoo ritual or a magic spell or looking for answers in a horoscope.

On the other hand, I have no issue with contributing positive thoughts and wishes, if the poster requests such. This is something I can do with heartfelt sincerity, and hopes for the best possible outcome.

...I think I am pretty lucky too

ummmm...popped what??

and when ya don't wanna b cute...throw on some sexy heels and strut baby

It is working beautifully

In Saudi arabia there is little to no crime.......why???? If you get caught stealing your hand is cut off!!!

I'm 37 and only 4'10", so I better be cute cause the chances of me getting any taller are long gone!

I say they take all the child molesters, murderers, rapist, and real hardened [email protected] bags and put them on a island, with no food no water and all the guns and lube we can give them.... they can all go f*ck themselves and then shot each other... the last one standing or i should say bending over wins the grand prize....Hanging by their necks.... but they get to have their fingers and toes cut off one by one and then their arms and so on... they need to feel pain just like their victoms


do I sound bitter????

cant always blame the public defenders though!! they get handed their cases.... Thats why when i was growing up and my dad would ask me what I wanted to be I said i would never be an attorney cause if I had to defend some a$$hole who raped someones daughter i would probably take him out and bury his A$$ so no one would find him, let alone child molesters and murderers....... thanks for getting me in a wild mood

I agree 100%..... If I commit a crime I can be assured I have 3 meals a day, a bed to sleep on, clean clothes, library to smarten my a$$ up, gym to work out, church,>>>> half these scum bag criminals live better then most decent law abiding citizens what a joke. sometime I think I should commit a crime then I can live in prison and let all the people around me support my A$$....I work hard for what I have and to have people who have no respect, or any decent bones in their bodies live better then me pisses me off
