ravens, didnt you see the latest episode of southpark? your savior was high on tranquilzers. he didnt suffer for your sins. he was infact, very high. in seriousness tho,i believe a man named jesus lived. he might have even been from nazeria. but he could have only been human even if he taught good lessons. hitchens quoted someone when he asked..."which is more likely, a jewish minx lied about an affair? or that all laws of nature were suspended when god had sex with his mom to concieve himself so he could allow himself to be tortured?"

1 John 5:14 - who hears prayers?
by leaving_quietly inthe last talk on the school this week was about jehovah being the 'hearer of prayer.
' one of the proof texts used was 1 john 5:14.
"and this is the confidence that we have toward him, that, no matter what it is that we ask according to his will, he hears us.".

in my reading i believe it is all power of suggestion. it makes you feel a relief of your moral connundrums by apollogising to an invisible friend instead of the person you have tresspassed. or asking forgiveness of YOURSELF for a mistake instead of the affected person.
in summation, you are offering prayers to an imaginary friend for your mistakes instead of apologizing to the people you might have transgressed.
and to smart assedly answer the question. who hears prayers, well the dog, perhaps a cat, a loved one, how far do you want to go with this? maybe you have roaches or termites. do you pray for the termites? god kept them alive during the flood. who are you to question the almighty?

JW tour bus crashes in Florida, with fatalities-
by moshe inmiami - a bus carrying 32 members of a church group hit a concrete overpass at miami international airport after the driver got lost, killing two elderly people on board and leaving three others critically injured, officials said saturday.. the large, white bus was too tall for the 8-foot-6-inch entrance to the arrivals area, said airport spokesman greg chin.
buses are supposed to go through the departures area, which has a higher ceiling, he said.. chin said the passengers told him they were part of a group of jehovah's witnesses headed to west palm beach.
police said in a news release that the group had chartered the bus to take them to a church convention there-.

with the respect to puff and his friends, zid is right on as usual. what if it were a bus full of teens heading to "pentecostal revival"? how many would be prayed for by a witness? that happened with a small charter plane recently. i dont think it was even mentioned here.
