Seriously, everytime you respond to my threads, it's something other than the topic. Can you please, for once, try to say something useful? And also, if this topic were bad, it would've been locked a long time ago. And, no offense, but I'm sick of us Christians (or any religion for that matter) being bagged upon and not able to speak up about their beliefs.

Trust me, if I were bagging on atheists and saying their theories are stupid and that Christianity rules and everyone should become a Christian, then that's when I've gone overboard and that's when you have the right to report. But for goodness sake, I'm just asking if anyone prays! You act as if I'm preaching the actual word of God! Do me a favor and stop saying off-topic stuff on my threads. It's so annoying! 

Another thing, don't speak up on my topics if it has nothing to do with it or you just want to be a smart alec about things. I've just had enough. Seriously.

Sorry if I went a bit overboard, but it's just starting to bug me. All I did was ask if anyone prays. Like I said, I'm not preaching the word of God. You act as if I committed some sort of crime. Gosh. Yeah, I understand why certain religious topics aren't allowed, but sometimes, it just goes overboard to the point where it's downright ridiculous. 

That's all. And please don't reply saying, "Jeez, chill bro" or "Dude, calm down". I realize I kinda went overboard, but sometimes, you just gotta let it out and not keep it trapped inside. And I understand why you might've reported it and that you just wanted to do the right thing, but the point is, deal with the actual topic and not some "Oh, I'm reporting this" nonsense. I have no problem with you reporting it, but don't mention it here.

P.S. I don't hate you and all, but just remember to stop going off-topic and saying things other than the actual topic. If you must, you may leave me a message about it on one of my projects. I'll see it, read it, and deal with it from there. Just not on the forums. Please.

Hey there, calm down. No need to get in a huff. ^_^ Religious threads are generally not allowed because they stir up debate, so I can't blame him for reporting this thread, although I agree stating so in a post wasn't necessary.

I'm inclined to leave this open because praying doesn't necessarily have to be a strictly religious thing, nor is this necessarily a discussion regarding religion. I'll leave 08jackt's report for now to see what the other mods think though.

Personally, I'm agnostic, so I don't really pray. I do however on certain occasions give a little mental call to whatever god may be out there. For example, recently I attended a funeral for a distant family member whom I really didn't know at all and just silently asked for comfort for the people that knew him.

I'm an atheist, so no    Don't get me wrong though, I have no problem with people praying or really doing anything like that as long as I am not forced to or yelled at for not joining them (trust me, it's happened before)

Well, those people are jerks and make their religion look bad. There's always a handful of fools.    The point is, ignore them. However, I hope your not mistaking sharing their religion for forcing their religion. There was this one Christian Scratch project and everyone bagged on it, saying he was trying to force his religion on them, when he clearly was not.

I don't.

Oh stop fighting, you guys. ^_^

08jackt, you know it's always better to use the report button in silence, now don't you? :3 Posting "reported" on a topic can be quite effective flamebait in a lot of situations. Like this one, meh. And don't go all legal on me, saying it's the rules and all that. ^,^

If you don't post anything that could possibly be hurtful, then nobody will combust and everybody will be happy. :3

Now go and have cookies and tea together.

Just don't post anything that could hurt anyone and cause them to combust, like that rude remark I edited out. :3

You don't post it because somebody might get hurt, that is all. ^^ (and how embarrassing, I edited my post there and the old version is stuck in your post for eternity xP)


On topic:
I don't pray, except for when I sing chants in the church choir, which hasn't been part of my activities lately, unfortunately.    I really want to get back into singing though. ^^

Ok, look 08jackt. It would be best to report the topic in silence, and for this matter, even that wouldn't be necessary. It says in the first post that PandaGuy doesn't want this to be flamebait, so you just kinda turned this topic into a flamefight yourself. If you really did thing there was a rule against this topic, all you had to do was report it, and if the mods agreed, they'd close it.

I thought they'd just agreed to get back on topic.

I don't pray at all, but I can see how it could comfort people who believe someone is watching over them.

bleh.

if you hadn't notice we'd just went through that
i didn't mean for it to be flame bait. a lot of others post "reported" before they report the post/topic
