You're losing it Pauline. I didn't say faith was nonsense, I said your mind manipulation techniques were nonsense, i.e. the typical religious response of "I have something you don't, you can't understand it, I am special, you are missing out" kind of nonsense.

Nevertheless you are STILL trying to divert the discussion away from its subject matter which is PRAYER. Please could you remain focussed on that and not try to divert or derail the thread.

Prayer very clearly is not working. Millions are praying and yet people continue to die and suffer horribly.

I ask again why is it that prayer is not working?

What is your answer?

Do you have one? Or will you just hide behind the religious rhetoric to avoid answering?

Oh Pauline, I do love Jesus and The Holy Spirit. I get up in the morning and say "Good Morning Holy Spirit" and I talk to Him all day. Everything I do is with Him. He knows I don't want to live anymore, and won't be doing anything to help myself live longer. I have had a long life. I don't particularly want to face any more challenges at my age.

There is so much more I could say Pauline, but I better not, I am just so content in knowing I am being looked after, in a very big and special way!!

Christian love to you Pauline, and Julie, and anyone else that thinks like us, but uncomfortable talking about it on a forum....

I am asking the Lord for a special blessing for each one of you today.....

There is no testable evidence for any supernatural entity.

Re: Healing with The Power of Prayer

Realist,, you are not quoting my words properly, I did not say:

The assertions have variously been that prayer works, that prayer in numbers always works and that more people praying mean more "power

I don't believe anything ALWAYS works and I didn'
t say it. I like you Realist, but you do have a babit of twisting words.

Ok then so you have no answer to the questions put. Just the usual ridicule. I don't need to pray for an answer. I am not the one making the assertions. OP and other fundamentalists here are the ones saying that :

- prayer works
- prayer with more people always works
- more people praying = more power

I'm asking the people who are asserting these things to tell me how they defend those assertions when the harsh realities of life clearly show that prayer is not and does not work.

So far, all I am getting is tumbleweed and the usual deflection from the simple question. In fact worse than that I am effectively now being attacked for asking the simple questions as more fundamentalists "gang up" to disparage me.

I will ask again

Why is it that prayer is not working?

Why are people continuously dying and suffering despite the most fervent prayers of believers?

Best to just ignore him Pauline.

'Debating' (I call it arguing) only feeds such people.

Sorry WB it wasn't a quote of you. Julie made those assertions so my words there were the collective assertions from everyone in the thread.
