Lastly Paris. I've got friends living there, women who married Frenchmen. I, don't mean to be controversial or upsetting, but I see all these posts on Facebook and wherever about prayingfor Paris. Is it just me that feels that it is praying that is part of the problem. I'm sure there are people praying to God for thanks that the acts were successful and praying that more terrorism can succeed.
Please don't confuse extremism for religious belief.
These people are no more 'Muslim' than the Westboro Church is 'Christian'.
I'm a Christian, but it would be insensitive and inappropriate for me to exhort people to pray here because there are many beliefs on this board and I try to respect them all.
my theology is pretty basic Do to others as you would have them do to you.
I can't see how my personal prayer to God is analogous to the hatemongering that is going on in other places, or how me praying is going to make terrorism worse.
I'm not looking for an argument, and I'm not an evangelist looking to convert you
I respect your opinion and your right to hold it, even if I disagree
