Shootings and explosions in Paris

[Valmy]

Wow Tim you are old school.

[Tamas]

Are you literally asking God to solve their problems? And do you expect him to do so?

If so, I think you are rather unusual in that respect. Most Americans I know are willing to use the terminology, but have no such expectations.

Sometimes I'm specific, sometimes a more general "look out for so and so". You can't have expectations of God, all you can do is hope.

On what basis do you think God chooses those who will get divine aid and those that can just suffer.

By if enough people send up their pray power of course.

There is a progress bar that gets filled by the various prayers on the given topic, and filling it unlocks the achievement.

So if Godly power is granted does it take more prayer to get to the next ding?

Wow Tim you are old school.

Well, someone has to be that grandparent in the future.

Good point. But Tim has to have kids for that to happen.

[Tamas]

I don't claim to be able to understand his plan.

BTW this is the weakest point in the act of praying. Twist it how you want, it means you think you are able to influence omnipotent God to change his mind.

I mean I KNOW in reality its a psychological thing to feel less out of control with what's happening in your life, but I mean the ideology put around it.

I don't think that.

This line of discussion has a short future ...

Well, Tim, what are you waiting for? Get reproducing.

That's why I prefer casting spells. 

[Valmy]

yes you do.

I pray to focus on what is important and clear my mind of all the shit. The only mind being changed is mine. God is always the same as they say.

My mana pool is too low.
