could you tell me why it STILL isn't raining in most of georgia?
except for the northwest tip...if the gawd answered the prayers, wouldn't it be at the site of the prayer?
looks more like a normal weather pattern to me...

I actually was praying that it would not rain there, so does that mean that the POWER OF PRAYER does not work? My concern is that if it rains too much that it will flood and kill people, so I have my reasons. Does that mean God listens to only some people and not others? So does that mean if he does not listen to me that I should not worship him, since he did something for someone else and nothing for me? Or is it that based on statistics that chances are he would have hit the rain jackpot at some point, whether he prayed or not? I believe that it was just based on chance, nothing to do with your imaginary God.

That is so offensive....if someone of faith chooses to pray for rain, that's their business and their right. If someone not of faith thinks it's ridiculous that is also their business and their right.
Ultimately, however, the real question is why do people of faith have SUCH a hard time understanding the phrase "separation of church and state". Although, as an atheist, I could personally care less if a politician is spiritual or not, it is still the politician's office to act on behalf of their constituents without their personal religious beliefs being a factor.
Perhaps Christians should pray for some vocabulary and lessons...

the climate Channel suggested Georgia gained a million/2 inch of rain particularly areas. Tennessee and North Carolina have been given rain additionally. in case you gained any rain, you are able to greater advantageous be grateful. Your physique of ideas is undesirable and God controls the rain. The discomfort and sorrow of this recent worldwide, alongside with severe climate, demonstrates a less than excellent worldwide. you will desire to study Leviticus 26:19-20 (rainless sky, parched earth) Deuteronomy 28:24 (drought punishment) 11 Samuel 21:a million (drought and famine) you have have been given the drought and you actual do no longer want the famine.

If a governor wants to go to a church to pray thats his/her business. If a governor wants to go out to a public place like a park or something and lead a prayer vigil, again thats their own business. But when a governor of a state stands up in front of the Courthouse or Capital and in his Public Office as Governor leads prayers - that is coming mighty close to promoting a religion (I'm quite sure he wasn't leading a Hindu prayer) and that has no business in our government.

So, let me get this straight, Georgia, which usually has some really powerful thunderstorms this time of year (yes, I've lived there) is getting thunderstorms, so because te Governor prayed for rain that means that millions of people have experienced the power of prayer?
You're silly!

My pants weren't or will not be in a wad. People pray all the time. It's what christians do.
Sooner or later the odds that water would fall from the sky over Georgia had to be favorable. Don't go celebrating too heavily.

ur right!!
Dr. S. T. Raumann said this, in the 'Religionist Enquirer', tomorrow:
" Athiest from all over the World are spitting bullets at the Govenor of GA, they picketed the praying people with placards and even LIED about the praying people, chanting "The Rain is In Your Brain!". Police broke up the protest and restored order, but the Athiest carried on throwing rocks from a distance"

They are always upset whenever anyone prays. Kinda of silly in my personal point of view, sense They claim not to believe. Why would they care if someone prays to a God that they don't believe in?
After it starts raining? They'll find some sort of 'Logical explanation' To explain the rain. Anything to discredit the real source......God!

Could it be a weather front that is bringing the rain?
Just a thought.
regardless of the reason, I hope they get the rain they desperately need.

I think you mean "Wad". A Wod is the short term for "Wii Optical Disc" and my pants won't fit in one of those (I tried).
Anyway, he has been praying for rain for over a year, why did God only pay attention today?
