Reply #21: why for confused?

i had a friend who was a fundy, his thanks was that he developed cancer in his 30s

he told me himself that he was "praying to jesus" in that oncology office -- and then a light went on and he realized that "everyone there was praying to jesus"

if prayer did anything no one would be ill because a natural response to anything bad is to make these mental bargains

or as woody allen said, i must be god because every time i pray i notice i'm talking to myself

god has turned his back on us, he doesn't deserve our prayers in my humble opinion

i was ill and in pain for 2 decades, god did fuck-all, the storms came, god did fuck-all, god has a lot of explaining to do

i will not prayer or worship to such
