A Challenge For God
February 21st, 2009prayforyou RT @Forestpelt Please pray that @Forestpelt’s 2 atheist friends will find Christ. Pray that God would shine through @Forestpelt to them.Â
Andrew_Taylor @prayforyou This ought to be the single most elegant demonstration that prayer doesn’t work we will ever see.Â
prayforyou We have a challenger saying we will only prove that prayer doesn’t work. Everyone pray so we’ll prove to @Andrew_Taylor the power of prayer.Â
Come on then, God. This should be an easy one. Convince two people you exist. I mean, I don’t want to pour scorn on Your infinite power at all, but I can manage this task pretty easily. I’m almost sure that everyone at work is totally convinced I exist. So come on, God. Pull Your finger out.
Call me cocky if you like, but I’m pretty sure I can win this bet. Convincing atheists of his own existence is one of God’s weakest suits. He’s much better at tasks that only involve committed theists.
Maybe it’s all the praying they do.

dreadpiratemick @Andrew_Taylor Are you feeling the awesome power of prayer yet?
No, Mick. No, I’m not.

I have just visited the “prayforyou” site, and as an ex-evangelical Christian (Plymouth Brethren Brand) I have to say that it is “the funniest thing that I have seen for a very long time”, if I may misquote Our Blessed Mary of Whitehouse!! It`s so appalling that I thought at first that it was another spoof, but sadly I know just where these poor bastards are coming from. I see that one idiot is asking the faithful to pray for “politicians and government officials” – “that God`s will would be done and justice afforded to all”. His grasp of Biblical morality seems to be weak if not non-existent, but you have to admire their optimism!!!

PS I see that there is no indication yet that the Glorious Light of the Gospel has dawned on those wicked friends of Forestpelt. Perhaps they`re just not praying hard enough!! On second thoughts, what is Forestpelt doing associating with such evil unbelievers in the first place!!!
