No, you're still reading it wrong. Not 48% of the 35%. They asked everyone in the group if they're a self-identified born again, evangelical, or fundamentalist. Of those who said yes, 48% answered yes to the other question about prayer and mental illness. 35% of the whole group, including those self-described evangelicals said yes to the question.
Me thinketh thou doth not understand how prayer...eth workith.
You pray for one thing, and you get something else (because your prayer DIDN'T WORK)Me thinketh thou doth not understand how prayer...eth workith.
You don't always get what you ask for. Hence me not being a billionaire.
it's called the bible you should try reading it sometime.
"If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."it's called the bible you should try reading it sometime.
And yes the billion dollar prayer didn't pan out quite like i wanted, so yes it didn't work.
If that prayer be the will of God then yessir you shall, even if you tell the mountains to fall into the sea
interesting, so the parents of dying children who pray for them are wasting their time, because gods will is not for them to liveIf that prayer be the will of God then yessir you shall, even if you tell the mountains to fall into the sea
.
believing in the bible is a suckers game. If the prayer has to be "the will of God" then what is the point of even praying? Shouldn't God just will it, since, it's his will? Good googly moogly religion is so stupid friends.If that prayer be the will of God then yessir you shall, even if you tell the mountains to fall into the sea
That's why we don't take one passage from a book and try to derive the entire meaning of the book from one line. That's a suckers game.
That sounds like non-believer talk. If you believe then God's will > your will ergo reading and understanding the full book, not just one line. The object of "the game" is to want to live according to what God wants, not necessarily what you want. This is difficult/impossible for most (hence sin).
Yeah cause everlasting peace, tranquility, love > the shyt life you can afford your child, what a dikk this God.? Those prayers aren't wasted, they just get trumped by God's will. I personally would be sad if my child died but also happy they were going on to a better place. My love for them would make me miss them but also make me accept that they are with God. See how that works out. That's why passing, IMHO, is to be celebrated and why I have in my will "NO WEARING BLACK". ..i'm also looking at having a "stand up" comic show upinteresting, so the parents of dying children who pray for them are wasting their time, because gods will is not for them to live
sounds like a huge dikkhead to me
. I don't want people sad when I'm gone, celebrate that shyt, be happy.
this sounds like something you would tell a slave, to make it sound like their shytty life on earth would be worthwhile at the endYeah cause everlasting peace, tranquility, love > the shyt life you can afford your child, what a dikk this God.?

Slavery was God's will breh. Praying for the end of Slavery?this sounds like something you would tell a slave, so make it sound like their shytty life on earth would be worthwhile at the end
oh wait, it is
nah b, you gon have to wait a few hundred years 
It can if you choose to believe it is. Just like saying not believing "sounds" hopeless.this sounds like something you would tell a slave, so make it sound like their shytty life on earth would be worthwhile at the end
oh wait, it is
that's the funny thing about beliefs though, you have them based on your views of the world. You choose what "proof" you want and that's what you work with. Ultimately we all spend 50-100 years or so alive and then move on (or not move on).
