    I spenyt lots of time praying when I was younger. Rarely did things go my way most of the time they didn't. I never pray now, things often go my way sometimes they don't. My conclusion is prayer seems to have the power to screw up your plans.

    Given how I've changed - grown up - I have no compulsion to convince others for or against anything. Sharing our thoughts and experiences with others is all we can do. Thanks for the opportunity.

    Well said, CoCo.

    One time I offered a prayer during a poker game. I said the prayer when I can 30,000 in chips and 40 minutes later I had over 500,000 in chips and was sitting in the chip lead. Proof that praying to Joe Pecsi works !!

    Admittedly, the boiled eggs (served once per week) were usually perfect. Also, about every 10 days, there would be an excellent pastry.

    But, let's be honest: Four days per week, breakfast was basically inedible. Don't even get me started about the undercooked pork sausage.

    I was either unaware or had forgotten that you were at Bethel. Did we cross paths? I was in Brooklyn from 1994 until 2000.

    Billions of people have been praying for hundreds of years for peace.

    I found peace with God, the first time I prayed for it.

    Prayer.
    Billions of people have been praying for hundreds of years for peace. Other billions pray for happiness for mankind. Not one evidence exists that He hears or that He cares.

    You mean evidence like someone praying for their child to live when doctors have told them it will die and the child lives?

    You mean evidence like praying to find a loved one in the middle of a naurial disaster and you do?

    You mean evidence like praying to get out of a cult and you do?

    That kind of eividence?
