How is it smart ass to say prayer doesn't work? serious question.

Its not smart ass to say prayers don't work... but you know very well, HERE ON GET BIG, ON THIS VERY THREAD, the intent is to be a smart ass! As I said, I don't pray or believe myself, but there's a time and place for everything, clearly Coach is hurting and he was looking for people who pray to back him up.

I disagree , I said it was tragic but seriously want to know what praying is going to accomplish it's not being a smart ass just pointing out the illogical concept

Well - if this was your sincere intent, than you have my apologies!

But clearly coach thinks it works- so thats what he needed at the time.

What does Coach want from us precisely? There is nothing we can do and its not like he is going to call those people`s families and say, "The True Adonis offered his support but not his prayers because he is an atheist".

I find it to be another Christian ploy to make him feel better about a horrible situation.

No need to apologize , It baffles my mind that people ask for prayer after something tragic happens and I honestly don't get how it supposed to be of any comfort.

In conjunction to this, the mere thought of having to ask for it makes it insincere. You are either trying to create obligation, you believe in magic, or both. Praying does nothing. As i said before offer the family moral support. Maybe offer the family member free training or something. Donate some time to them. Give back.

Pray? To what? To whom?

Such a useless activity.

Do you think? Put them in your thoughts and hope for the best. Shit! This is why so many people think poorly of us atheists. FTN.

Coach, they will be in my thoughts. I wish the best for them.

We got to pray just to make it today.

Given the name of his thread, it's obvious that he wasn't asking anything from those with your mindset. One could argue that YOU chose to make this an opportunity express/feel better about your perspective. Of course you're an intelligent fellow. I'm not telling you anything that you don't already know.

What is the proper arbitrary time frame that must pass before we may engage in ridiculing Coach and Prayers?

You come off as such a dick. Are you not getting laid?

Sorry to say my client's mother didn't make it. Been with the family most of the late afternoon. She was one of the shooting victims.

Big N · « **Reply #43 on:** October 12, 2011, 08:17:28 PM »

I think most people who commented in this thread are missing the point here. Coach wants "some moral support", is it that hard for some of you guys to understand? A few words of encouragement to feel better, or sending your prayers in "spirits" his way etc. There's no need to speculate anything else, and get into a whole another discussion that's irrelevant to this tragedy of broken hearts.

Coach - Feel better dude, hope things work out for the families affected by this tragedy. Keep your head up bro.

Thank you for all that prayed, as for the ones who don't but were kind enough to keep your thoughts, thank you and for those who critiize prayer, it helps give the victims families comfort as they were Christians.

20inch, that's exactly what it was. I've known this lady for the better part of 8 year and her daughter (client) at least that long.

I don't pray, but my condolences go out to them. Sorry to hear, coach
