    Anti-gay activist's wife divorces him so she can be with another woman. This sort of thing makes me laugh out loud every time.

    I'm not really sure why regardless of whether if you're religious or not, most folks somehow end up fixated on homosexuality... which affects only a very small minority of the populations. Or perhaps most people do have homosexual tendencies?

    Jesus didn't come to save only homosexuals... or God didn't ONLY judged the homosexuals in OT...

    God judged ALL unrepentant sinners in OT... and Jesus was sent to save all sinners who wants to be saved.

    Interesting article on the unexpected power of prayer - Prayer: Silent but Deadly

    A study conducted back in 2006 dealing with intercessory prayer found that there was no difference in post surgical complications or healing times between people who are prayed for and those who are not. This is to be expected, however what was not expected was the anomaly that occurred in one of the three subgroups of this study. Out of the three groups, only one actually knew they were being prayed for while the other two had no idea if they were or weren't being prayed for. The anomaly that was found was that when people know they're being prayed for it can actually be detrimental to the patient and can cause complications and a slower recovery time.

    "I find your lack of faith disturbing..."

    Seriously, the study doesn't mention the 'faith' level of the patients. As you all know, faith is a key factor for 'miracles' to take place. Even Jesus can't do much with folks who have no faith.

    But anyway, assuming patients' faiths are all randomized and evenly distributed, the article also stated that another reason could be that patients probably thought they're so fucked that it's out of the doctor's hands so that's why the hospital's resorting to praying for them!!!

    Anyway, just in case, I'll stop praying for Godson so that he can have a speedier recovery now...

    I find that difficult to believe.

    The word should've spread amongst the poor and they would've stayed away from her missionaries.

    Surely media isn't all Catholics, otherwise they would not have reported altar boy abuses either.

    Youth pastor rapes a 16 year old girl from his church. He gets 10 years. She can't go back to the church until she apologizes to the pastor's wife.

    Uh, there's an update of the situation..., but of course why should you guys care because it's well known that Chriatians are just a bunch of lying homophobic gay rapists who's always blame victims and judge sinners because the bible taught them so...
