Anyone who does not believe in prayer, should simply refrain from this post.

Have you tried 'praying' for that sort of theocratic censorship?

Naturally, you have verifiable evidence for your claim, no?

There is no reason to attribute such to 'prayer', (except blind faith and that doesn't require reason or attributible evidence).

The attribution is false since there is no evidence to support it.  One may as well "praise" a invisible pink unicorn for being equally not responsible.

Falcon I have a what if question for you. you're traveling down a lightly traveled country road, you lose control of your car, you go off the road, you are traped in your car, you're badly injured and chances of you being found are very slim. do you just sit there waiting to die or do you look for a devine intervention?

That would be "divine" intervention and no.  If I couldn't use my cell phone to summon assistance or, couldn't crawl out on my own, I might die of my injuries and no 'invisible pink unicorn' could prevent that.  I'm pragmatic, not someone who would cling to false hope.

Things have changed since WWII.  Now, there are wiccans and satanists, (federally-recognised religions), in the military as well as xtians and atheists.  Not only are there atheists in foxholes, they tend to follow General Patton's advise of making the other poor *bleep* die for his country by being better shots, (I qualified as Marksman during basic training).

first Falcon you are either a fool or a lousy liar.
second the quote you attribute to Genaral Patton is not a Patton quote it is a George C. Scott quote never said by Patton only used in the movie.

first Falcon you are either a fool or a lousy liar.

Since I am neither, how did you illogically arrive at that conclusion?  There _are_ wiccans & satanists in the U.S. military and both of those are federally-recognised 'religions'.  Therefore, you are both a fool and a liar.

second the quote you attribute to Genaral Patton is not a Patton quote it is a George C. Scott quote never said by Patton only used in the movie.

"No *bleep* ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb *bleep* die for his country."
 Gen. George S. Patton

Lastly, you asked a question, I answered it and your response was to accuse me of being "either a fool or a lousy liar" without backing up your claim.  If you do not choose to back up your specious accusation, you are opening the door to a laundry-list of substantiated assertions concerning your defensive 'arguments'.  Are you aure you want to go there?  No other xtians have been able to refute those assertions as yet.  Who know, maybe you'll be the very first one to do so.
