Default The Power of Prayer

There's an old saying that goes, "When all else fails, pray". There is a lot of scientific evidence that proves that cancer patients who were prayed for by friends and loved ones often make miraculous recoveries. An example of this is no other than Doyle Brunson who after having been given less two hours to live made an instantaneous recovery from cancer. This was due to a prayer get together that his family organized with a group of friends.

But Doyle was just one of many.

I suggest that we all pray together for the reversal of the evil events that have befallen online poker in the last couple of days. By pooling our energies and intentions during one moment in time, perhaps we can trigger forces in the universe that would create unexpected changes that would shift the winds of fate back in our favor.

On October 4, at exactly 5 p.m. pacific standard time, let us all hold hands (note: since we can't physically hold hands, we can just hold our mouse with our left hands and at the same time put our right hands over our hearts), and with great faith pray to the Creator for some favorable happenings that would stop the tide of evility that has befallen all of us. We don't have to know what specific events would occur. Just that they would occur and that no one would get hurt in the process. Not even the perpetuators of the dastardly deeds.

Remember, the time of this great coming together of all of our souls is exactly on 5 p.m pacific standard time on Oct. 4. NEGATIVE ENERGY PEOPLE (that is, people that do not have faith) ARE NOT INVITED. In fact, they should not even make posts in this thread at all. We don't want negative people sucking our positive energies like vampires do.

I look forward to becoming one with all of you my friends.

In order for Prayer to be most effective, we'll first have to forgive Frist....... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Dunno if I can do that by tomorrow.... But count me in. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

There is no such evidence. Praying does not cure cancer or anything else. Nor is there anything like "positive energy" as you describe.

Instead of asking an invisible all-powerful creature to change his plans, do something useful...engage your fellow humans in discussion on what it means to be free, vote, read some real science books, etc.
