It's been years since I've prayed and the last one I prayed to was the god known as Jehovah. Just wondering. -

I'm a descendent of Abraham, of the tribe of Judah, of Sephardic Jewish ancestry. I pray to the G-d of my ancestors.
But I promise you, I ain't praying to the Watchtower's "Jehovah," I can tell you that. None of my people ever have.

Do I prey? No, I wouldn't know who to pray to and for what purpose. The closest I come are little thought experiments that I have but the conversations in my mentally diseased mind .are always with myself. -

Fremindfade,
We Jews serve lots of wine when we pray.
Come on over. Don't have to pray or be Jewish, but you do have to drink.
I have booze and booze. Which do you prefer?

I surely doubt there is a loving god that looks out for people in need or in danger, many examples to prove that. So just in case there is someone/something out there that called on my existence, I pray, I do a short prayer in my classroom during the moment of silence. I don't pray to the name Jehovah anymore, I pray about my wife and children's safety to "creator" and instead of Jesus I use a very generic "your son given in sacrifice, and I say, "We thank you", at the end." If there is a god, then I am sure he knows my good heart and that I am directing myself to him as our only creator. Since "Amen" may have origins with "Amun Ra", an Egyptian deity, I stay away from it.
With Osiris, Amun-Ra is the most widely recorded of the Egyptian gods. As the chief deity of the Egyptian Empire, Amun-Ra also came to be worshipped outside of Egypt, in Ancient Libya and Nubia, and as Zeus Ammon came to be identified with Zeus in Ancient Greece.
- Cheers!

South Park; We cannot know with certainty if GOD or Christ exists. There COULD
be a giant reptilian bird in charge of everything. Can we be CERTAIN there isn't?
NO, so it's pointless to talk about.
