I can't explain it.

It's more than just a feeling.
I pray sometimes, and good things just, happen.
I've never lost a football game that I've prayed before.
I've never lost a wrestling match that I've prayed before.
I've never lost a baseball game that I've prayed before.
I've never failed a test that I've prayed before.
If I pray, good things happen. It's a constant trend I've noticed in my life.
And when I stop praying for whatever reason, bad thing start happening.
A few weeks back, I had to stop praying for a while because of studying for exams.
My grades actually dropped,
I could never get to sleep,
and I lost my job.

Hey, maybe I am smart, maybe I am a helluva good athlete, and maybe these aren't because of my praying, but occur just because I'm good at what I do, but to me, the fact that good things happen to me when I pray and bad things happen to me when I stop praying is what makes me a believer.

When I was 7, both of my parents lost their jobs. I was on the verge of becoming homeless, and I went days on end without eating, and with little drink. I could very well have died, but when I started praying, things let up. My dad got a job as a graphics designer, and my mom got a job in retail. Slowly, my life became better. That was what made me become so devout to my religion.

I don't insult other people's religion. You've got a different experience than me, I understand that. And I can't change what you believe, nor do I want or intend to.

But don't insult me because of what I believe in. If you'd lived through what I've lived through, you'd be a believer too. I don't care what your belief is. Atheist, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, Taoist, or what. But my beliefs are my own, and you insulting them isn't going to change them.

I'm pretty tired of all of these smartasses that think that just because they say my religion is based on an old man in the sky with a beard, that I'll automatically renounce it. First off, they prove by saying that that they have absolutely no idea what the hell they're talking about. And second off, it shows that they have uncertainty on their own beliefs. That they feel the need to put down another set of beliefs to give their own beliefs credibility is pathetic, and no matter what you believe in, it isn't morally right.

If you believe in something, then you know what it's like to actually believe in something. If you believe God doesn't exist, and then someone says you're wrong, you're going to back up that statement. If you believe that people verge into a void of peace when they die, and someone says they don't, then you're going to back that up. If you believe that Jesus Christ has died for your sins on the cross and someone says he didn't, then you're going to back that up.
If you understand that, then you understand why I hate all y'all idiots trying to bring down other people's beliefs.

Just thought I'd put that out there.

One doesn't simply pray to god to win games and stuff....
Or for materialistic things.

You pray for the well beings of others and to apologize for your sins.

As much as I support most of what you've said, this is the Clans & Guilds forum, and this has nothing to do with clans at all.

And you asked for no flames.

Wise ideas, yes. Wise move, no.

Those things I prayed for up there were just examples.

And being part of a sports team isn't just for yourself.

When I pray to win a sports game, I don't just pray for myself, I pray for my team.
I pray for a lot of other things, but this isn't a debate on whether or not I pray correctly.

My dear child, you don't bring religion to the forums. It's against roblox rules.

Roblox really hands out the bans to those, because they start massive flamewars.

Don't worry Doc, I've already got those rules down. And I know this won't get banned.

Just keep this off the forums, please.

It starts big flamewars that no-one likes.

I'd recommend just not respond to people going against you.

@power while there is no proof that God is real, there is also no proof that he is not real. Therefore, saying that he doesn't exist can't be proven.
I'm Christian. Doesn't mean you have to be. But it does mean that you shouldn't try to disprove my(or any other) religion.
