RE: [SPAM]Re: prayer and healing

1. Are you a Christian? Do you believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God
and Lord? Do you believe the Nicene and Apostles creeds?
2. Do you have any opinions of your own? I don't think any of us are
interested in a bunch of links and quotes that aren't even strung together
in a logical sequence. This last is a bunch of negativistic bits and pieces.
What's the point?
3. What is your motivation for writing the list? I don't get it.

@ A "Christian Peacemaker" comments on the subject:

"I avoid prayer like the plague" ... "The kind where you stop, sit or
kneel, do nothing but be, even if for only ten minutes. The thought
of fasting nauseates me, and as for Sunday Mass -- that weekly
spiritual re-boot and virus check -- well, let's just say I've
accumulated a significant inventory of mortal sins." .. "Enemies
are unfortunately very real, and they cannot be banished with a
little bit of positive thinking"... "Lovers, neighbours, children,
parents, WTO officials, presidents, sexist pigs, red-neck racists,
and strangers on dark street corners."
