If you pray for me with heart - I will thank you for that sincerely.

But I will not do that since I do not believe in Christianity. But I know that there was someone called Jesus on Earth.

Praying for the good of other people is more powerful than praying for yourself. God will help them even if they don't know Jesus because of your prayer. Know what, when you pray you pray for God to bless your family and friends first. Last will be your own prayer request. It's being selflessness and God loves people who are thinking about the benefit of other people rather than themselves.

I know Jesus, he does my landscaping. Thanks, but no thanks. Do you really think that anyone is listening when you talk to yourself? What happens if the 4 billion people on this earth pray at the same time? How do you get through? I know that you are saying that you know "for a fact" that your prayers get answered. Have you ever considered that by you talking to yourself you are convincing yourself that your prayers will be answered. The reality is that prayer is part of the scare tactic of religion. It can never be proven because it is fabricated by your mind. Good luck with your responses, I mean no disrespect to you personally.

Praying to Jesus is a bit like praying to JFK or Ghandi. Great people but nothing to do with the universe or how we got here.

You're just another tosser from the church converting people. Oh yes I dont know how to pray properly come and convince me that he's there. Absolutely pathetic.

How about I pray that you dont reporduce because we have enough christian retards in the world. Oh and if christians go to heaven i want nothing to do with it. ive had many christians tell me serial killers go to heaven. thats not right and its not right that christians play God and say they do not.

Christianity makes a mockery of God. At the same time that Christians claim to worship God as an omnipotent, omnipresent, omnibenevolent being, they make him out to be incompetent bumbler. Or worse. Simple forgiveness is beyond his capacities. God must "sacrifice himself to himself to change a rule he made himself!"

This is not only an absurdity, it is an essential absurdity. It is present in almost almost all forms of Christianity, and one can scarcely remove it and remain a Christian in anything but name. By definition, all Christians worship Christ - in some form - and most worship him as a saviour.

But what, exactly, is he saving us from? Though it varies from church to church, no matter what they call it, it's God himself. A hell created by God, a world fallen as a result of God's negligence, a separation from God imposed... by God.

"It is a counterfeit love that is contingent upon authority, punishment, or reward. True love is respect and admiration, compassion and kindness, freely given by a healthy, unafraid human being."
- Dan Barker, Losing Faith in Faith

Christianity certainly isn't the first religion to promote appeasement of its gods, and if it were merely another supernatural protection racket, it would be bad enough. Unfortunately, it doesn't stop there. Christians elevate appeasement to the realm of "personal relationship", transforming their religion into a true monstrosity.

This is the type of "relationship" that abused wives have with their husbands, that brainwashed hostages have with their captors. It is known in clinical circles as Stockholm Syndrome. Should it come as any surprise that the cries of the church, "The Bride of Christ" sound much like the cries of an abused wife attempting to protect her husband?

"He must beat me."
"I deserve it."
"He has no choice."
"It's for my own good."

These excuses don't work for human abusers, and they work even less well for God. For if God is omnipotent, he must have a choice. And if we are flawed, we are only flawed because that is the way he made us. (No excuses that we ruined his perfect creation. A truly perfect creation does not self-destruct.)

If the Christian God does exist - and I see no reason to believe that he does - he's not worthy of the name.

And that is the ultimate absurdity of Christianity.

can you please pray to jesus to come home to his dad as i am missing him and his brother. and tell him to be home before the sun goes down or he is grounded for a week.o yer by the way jesus is not the lord i am , so stop giveing my praise to another , or you will burn in hell for one week for it ok. and just for the record you should learn how to read and read the bible for yourself and then you will see it writen that there is no savior but god ok . so i am the lord and savior ,ok. and i am the creator . i am the father and if you christions dont like it stiff **** , i'm god not you . and i'm not a christion ether ok. so unless you want to get burnt you should try believeing in god almigfhty realy quick. try useing the name allah that you so like calling jesus by , and before you say you dont , allah translates to english as the word of god , king of kings lord of lords . so bewear of your priesthood they are all unbelievers in god . ok.and how dumb are christions anyway. ? if they say they have the religion of truth they should be preparing to inheart the earth and live immortaly . but they say they will all die and meet jesus in the sky and live in heaven . so whats the piont in the reserectsion if you all leaveing dead , and why are they ready to leave if they should be inhereting the earth . and why do they cry about people dieing if they all want to die and piss off and have immortal life when they are dead , i realy dont understand the christions are you all stupid or what? any if people who believe in the only begoten son of god never dies why are there so many dead christions? and if they are dead how can they have life immortaly when they are dead ? so maby all the christion should have a suicide pack and piss off to where ever they think they are going and leave the rest of the world alone . then my son might come home . hes probably shitting himself thinking i'm going to nail him to a cross like i did lucifer about 2000 years ago.any way when you get to the first heaven make shure you do a good job building everyone in the second heaven a nice house when you get out of hell . ok . well have fun in hell and say hi to lucifer for me just before you are thrown into hell . thanks bye for now love from your creator jimmy .

Many of the people above me are thinking they are being scientific and smarter than those old Christians by making fun of God. But let them get introuble and see how long they will be stiff necked and puffed up. The bible says "That every knee will bow". Get ready! He is coming soon !

Praying for someone against their will is egotistical and 'evil'. You are actually casting a spell.
