That means if you pray, you're a false prophet and if you don't pray, there is no Divine Guidance.bobevenson wrote:Praying is the province of false prophets.

There is no scientific evidence whatsoever that praying accomplishes anything except putting money into the hands of false prophets like Billy Graham and the Pope.Philosophy Explorer wrote:That means if you pray, you're a false prophet and if you don't pray, there is no Divine Guidance.bobevenson wrote:Praying is the province of false prophets.

You should write a letter to the Pope about that.bobevenson wrote:There is no scientific evidence whatsoever that praying accomplishes anything except putting money into the hands of false prophets like Billy Graham and the Pope.Philosophy Explorer wrote:That means if you pray, you're a false prophet and if you don't pray, there is no Divine Guidance.bobevenson wrote:Praying is the province of false prophets.

I would if it would accomplish anything. Billy Graham and the Pope are just two examples of an extremely large flock of false prophets.Philosophy Explorer wrote:You should write a letter to the Pope about that.bobevenson wrote:There is no scientific evidence whatsoever that praying accomplishes anything except putting money into the hands of false prophets like Billy Graham and the Pope.Philosophy Explorer wrote:

Follow the words of Jesus Christ I presume and he said you're not supposed to pray in public but in private and only recite the Lord's Prayer.Philosophy Explorer wrote:What is congregation supposed to do?
