The power of payer was NOT disproven by Governor Perry. On 5 August, 2011, (Note I'm including the year as to not take credit for an event that happened a decade ago.) I emailed the following e-prayer: "Let us pray that God turns the holy rollers at Rick Perry's prayer meeting into holy raisins!" My prayer was answered! Woo! Woo! Yeah! :-) My God 1. Born again, holy roller God 0!
"I've just watched your video and it's cool. I am God's stepchild-one of many-and one day I'll expect even less of Him than I do now. He obviously has no interest in my praying or church going or fasting so why bother. He'll do what He wants to anyway."
The city council of Lubbock TX prayed for Rain. THEY GOT IT!
And they held a day of Thanksgiving too. Google IT! I DARE YA OLDFART! WHATS THE MATTER? AFRIAD PRAYER WORKS!? REGRETING THAT PRAYER YOU MADE IN YOUR LAST VIDEO? ^_^
@minnesotastategop When I was a kid, I remember my Grandfather replying to someone asking "Do you think it's gonna rain?" "Well if it don't, we'll have a long dry spell." Young man, praying doesn't make it rain, certain meteorological conditions do. Or, as my Grandfather pointed out, it will eventually.
God must be dead if these idiot, Tea Bagger, trailer trash, bible belting, GOP morons are alive! Mary Fallin might as well hire a native American witch doctor to perform a rain dance!
(4)are starving because they live in countries run by marxists and environmentalist wackos. They wont irrigate or farm because they think trees birds rats and bugs have more rights to live then they do and because they worship a pagan godess. That and the government steals the food thats grown for themselves and because of the lack of incentives in capitalism brought on by land redistribution and high taxes like in Robert Mugabe's Socialist liberal utopia of Zimabwe.
@minnesotastategop Bwahahahaaaa, wait, you're joking right? These children are starving because they live in Marxists, environmentalists countries? Man what a great imagination you have.Please explain the "incentives of capitalism"? Trees, birds, rats and bugs have more rights to live because they worship a pagan goddess. Are you saying that trees, birds, rats, and bugs worship pagan goddesses? The government steals food that's grown for themselves. Wow, where did you get this stuff?
@philfromearth You take my words out of context. Theyy starve because their governments do not respect property rights (like in Zimbabwe for instance which is marxist and liberal.) And because of environmentalism. They cant use pestacides to kill locust and weeds, they cant farm and irrigate in some places and the state also taxes farmers to death and increase food costs.
Are you saying that trees, birds, rats, and bugs worship pagan goddesses?
@minnesotastategop "They wont irrigate or farm because they think trees birds rats and bugs have more rights to live then they do and because they worship a pagan godess." OK sorry, I may have interpreted this quote wrong. You had two ideas in one sentence. The people won't irrigate or farm because the animals have more rights and the people won't irrigate or farm because they, the people, worship a pagan goddess. Right? And this is all because their government is Marxist and liberal?
@minnesotastategop Zimbabwe has a semi-presidential, parliamentary, republic, consociational state. this is a state which has major internal divisions along ethnic, religious, or linguistic lines, with none of the divisions large enough to form a majority group, yet nonetheless manages to remain stable, due to consultation among the elites of each of its major social groups. Consociational states are often contrasted with states with majoritarian electoral systems, not a Marxist liberal state.
@minnesotastategop Zimbabwe's problems are caused more by the power struggle between the different factions than by ideology's. Each faction wants to rule and will not work together. The problem is shortsighted mass deforestation that causes the soil to degrade after a few years of farming in turn causing them to cut more forests. The forest soil has evolved to support the forests not farming so they are steadily destroying more and more of their soil. Environmentalism would be useful here.
(3)Then I want you to pray that God gives you terminal cancer. Instead of waiting till 2015 though lets make it one year from now. Starting on your next video and every subsequent video once a week or 2 pray for Jesus to give you terminal cancer by next year. If by August 2012 you aren't bald headed and near death and not covered in tumors then perhaps prayer doesnt work. Concerning starving children, we should pray but bear in mind God is not responsible for mans sinful actions. These children
(2)One of my students in my discipleship program was poisoned but by God's divine grace he was healed. The Prophet Jeremiah had the same experience. It wasnt his time to die yet and he didnt know. This also includes food poisoning. It happened to me when I was in Mexico, I prayed and I was healed in less then an hour and back on my feet! Prayer does work!
With that in mind I refer to BiddefordGop's comments I think its a good idea for you! If you are so confident that there is no Jesus,
But seriously, if God exists, and is all knowing, all seeing, and omnipotent, why would you have to pray and ask him favors? Wouldn't he already know what you need, and what is good for you? Prayers are kind of presumptuous don't you think. How can you be so arrogant as to think that you know better than the supreme being how things should be and tell him what should be done by praying?......... Just asking.
@oldfartrants This whole prayer thing isn't very logical is it buddy, but yet persists down through the ages. I have a prophesy. Low in the days to come there will be a great slapping of foreheads and the people will utter "what the hell have we been thinking all these millennia." or maybe they won't.
@philfromearth Like I said in the video... if God was real and loved you as much as you think he does you'd never have to pray to him in the first place. Isn't it amazing that something so blatantly simple goes right over the heads of these morons?
@oldfartrants It rained today in North Texas. I am no fundamentalist or evangelical, but I think it is just as ignorant to be so damned sure that there is no God or Creator. No, maybe God does not answer every prayer or is responsible for some events that appear to be a miracle. Just one word of advice, don't try to convince everyone that your view is the truth, that would be just as ignorant as the devout Christian.
@watertonrivers I never said I'm "damned sure that there is no God". I'm just damned sure there is no irrefutable evidence that there is! And if there is a "God" it's abundantly clear he/she/it has no interest in, or interaction with us at all. At the risk of repeating myself - prayer has been proven to be purely superstition. You can pray to a fire hydrant and get exactly the same results as you get praying to God. That's not my opinion - it's a fact. And facts ARE the truth.
@watertonrivers I don't know whether I'm an atheist or an agnostic or what exactly... but I'm pretty sure I'm not flaming ;)) For most people like me, studying the entire Bible word for word (I went to a Christian university) is all it takes to realize it's pure rubbish. There's not a scrap of actual evidence from anywhere outside the Bible that supports any of the fairytales in it. I think if the real God wrote a book it would blow your mind. The Bible damages it.
Here's an idea, if God Really doesn't exist, why dont you say a prayerto Jesus at the beginning or end of each episode of your crappy videos to get cancer by 2015. If by 2015 you don't have cancer maybe prayer wont work after all. Cmon! What are you afraid of? Jesus doesnt exist so therefore nothing wrong. right? Im sure if you pray to jesus for the next 3 years for terminal painful cancer it wont bother you since prayers don't work and there is no God.
@biddefordgop What a stupid idea! Here's a better one: why don't you pray to Jeebus to stop letting thousands of children suffer and die every day, 365 days a year, from disease and starvation? That's a totally selfless prayer, wouldn't you agree? Why wouldn't the cosmic zombie who loves you and all the little children of the world ignore such a prayer? Because he's bad at his job? He's a fucking douchebag? Or maybe, just maybe, he doesn't exist? What are you afraid of - your prayer won't work?
@oldfartrants (1)Ho hum where to begin. First of all, God wont answer your prayers if its selfish if youre testing him or if its contrary to the plan he has for you. If You drink draincleaner and pray he will let you die. Most likely since its your appointed time to die and that God commands us not to test him. There's already evidence everywhere proving his existence anyway you just ignore it and are in denial because of your sinful natur. He will only heal you if someone poisons you.
@biddefordgop And by the way - it's pretty stupid to ask somebody to do something that takes 3 years! I believe I renounceed him as a prophet, on camera in a previous video, which according to the Bible God will smite you for, and he didn't smite me at all when he had the perfect chance. Go figure! I guess he does work in mysterious was after all.
I'm not a fan of telling people to kill themselves tp prove that there is a god. Some of the religious nutjobs out there might actually take the challange and an hero. Or even worse, survive for some reason (the liquid could be non-deadly due to a production error etc). There are examples of people trying to prove god's existence that way. Few months back a VT student stabbed himself with a pen in an attempt to prove to Atheist students that God exists.
Xtians are delusional. When they affect national policy, they are dangerous. Get off you knees, stop mumbling, and do something real and positive. God is pretend.
Hey Old Fart, I've been praying lately for the lord to help me survive all this shit I've been going through lately and lo and behold I'm still here. I've also been asking,in my prayers, why do I have to go through all this shit. No answer yet. Hmmmm I wonder.
This guy is a fuck dick you think god don't u believe in the planet of the ape where nothing happen for a reson u got god prof all over u how can gas exist if nothing existed at all that stupid how can apes turn to man that
I'm Glad some americans are intelligent. I have 9 of the god bothering bastards in my house at the moment and i want to murder the whole damned lot of them. I guess it's a miracle that any of them have survived the past week...
@sesshii In life there is a thing called comedy..There are many different types of comedy. in this case you are playing the role of the straight man and feeding me lines so that I can say stupid things that some people will find humorous.,
On YouTube, this type of comedy is called; "Poeing". Pretending to be a fundie idiot is a specific class of "poe". The only problem is that fundies themselves are so stupid that it can be hard to tell a poe from the real thing.
@TheTruePooka Ah, i am a kinda humorous person, but since this channel is quite "realistic", serious, logic and rashonal i tend to become, just as. So, when i see a comment, i mostly expect it to be serious, i excepted your comment to be serious. not funny, but when i read it over again, i kinda do.
Verily verily I say unto you pray for rain or you shall be doomed. Flood the world has been done once now I shall burn you ass just for fun! God is great fouls will say, but if your smart go get laid! Haha
I have hope. I like hope. I'm big on hope. What I don't have is faith. My Hope comes from optimism...not blind optimism that "good things will happen for no discernable reason" but based on the observation that humanity is generally good and when the shit hits the fan we tend to take positive action. Not always mind you, but often enough for me to have Hope.
So I don't need "Magic-Sky-Man" or the "Grand Wizard of Creation" to inspire me, I have our world and ourselves for that. I'm big on Hope.
Maybe what those people need to do is a rain dance, because it sure doesn't seem like praying is doing the trick, I guess yahweh was too busy to fit it into his schedule. Maybe one of the native american gods has time.
Oh and OldFart, look what I found and shared with Mike Malloy?
Ezekiel 16:48-49 tell us: "This is the sin of Sodom; she and her suburbs had pride, excess of food, and prosperous ease, but did not help or encourage the poor and needy. They were arrogant and this was abominable in God's eyes."
Seems like the Bible contradicts wha the Christians say. sodom and Gomorrah was not about homosexuality, but people acting like conservatives. Sounds like Republicans, huh?
Dear Jeebus, the son of a raped Asian (Nazareth is in the continent of Asia you dumbshit Christians) woman, Pleeze gimme rain! It's hot as fuck out here in Los Angeles. No wait. it's in the 70s in the South Bay area. Hey! My prayers came true! See OldFart? There is a sky-spook out there!!!!!
Gee OldFart, you're pretty cruel. The drinking of extra strength liquid or better yet Gel drain cleaner wasn't so bad, but telling the teabaggers to use their brain...well that's really cruel. And next paragraph my prayer
I prayed for rain last night, and guess what? it rained early in the morning, Then I checked the forecast and it was already foretold 3 days in advance that there will be isolated showers in my area. hahaha so much for the prayer.
Do you have any hope? I am keeping my umbrella. All I know is this: Once I was blind but now I can see, and since you studied the bible you know what I mean by this for sure. Did you ever truly believe/have faith? Just asking. People are basically evil/flesh and we all need a savior.
@catenadine See what religion has done to you? You think people are evil/flesh. Nothing could be further from the truth, and for you to behav e like a sheep who needs a savior just proves that the intent of religion (to break people's spirit and keep them guilty and down) is alive and well just like it was intended by the people who made it all up in the first place. How sad for you. You should really do some research on the actual origins of Christianity - use your brain to set yourself free!
@oldfartrants I do not think people are evil/flesh; I know they are (including me). The truth sets one free to live in love and hope, allowing the nine fruits of the spirits to guide you. I need work on self control with eating ice cream/potato chips. I will no doubt die early from that. I am dying daily but the spirit is renewed daily. I have hope for something better than the sin of this world. I am forgiven and free and try to sin no more. Unless you live it you won't understand. <3
@alwaysfroging I don't see anything there that proves anything - just the same old "I feel it in my heart" blah blah blah bullshit. What would you do if a man walked up to you on the street and claimed to be Jesus? Would you want some proof? Of course you would! Yet you're just fine believing a bunch of made up crap written 2000 years ago by primitive people who thought the earth was flat and diseases were caused by demons - and you don't see anything wrong with that. Do you know what proof is?
@alwaysfroging YOU do not understand prayer - it's simply superstition and has been proven to be so many many times - something which you, like most Christians, simply choose to ignore. If you have indisputable proof that prayer works, please provide it. Otherwise you need to grow up and realize that you're living in fantasyland, wasting your time believing in proven nonsense, and worshiping imaginary characters that are no more real than Zeus, or Apollo, or the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
You left out the possibility that there was a Jesus Christ, but him and his followers were all, by today's standards, criminally insane. Also: Yes, No, and wait. Sound familiar? That's right "God" is an all knowing magic 8 ball.
You speak well. Is this all just by accident that people are here? If more people had faith and ask then things would be different. Did you read the whole bible in chronological order? There is more to praying for anything you want; as a Christian you have to be living in love (very in depth so read the bible please). The old testament speaks of them drinking poison and living and being bitten by snakes. Faith of a mustard seed moves mountains but nonetheless faith. Umbrella???
@catenadine Yes I have read and studied the entire Bible front to back at the Christian university I attended. I'm sure I know more about it than you do the research that completely debunks it. Christianity came to be by plagerizing the mythology of earlier cultures. There is no evidence outside the Bible that proves anything in it is true - if there was there would only be one religion and no one would still be arguing about it. The Bible is nothing but fairy tales and proven nonsense.
@mainestategop Why don't YOU take my challenge? I'm sure you believe that prayer actually works. Just think - you'll be world famous and every talk show there is will want you on as a guest! Then you'll have an international audience to preach to (instead of a handful of "gop" friends) and tons of money so you can quit bitching about how libruls and communists and bums and the government are keeping you from being successful. You're not scared to put your money where your mouth is are you?
"coincidence" thats what you call it when God directly intervenes. there have been many reported miracles brought out by prayer.
You don't seem to understand something. God has a plan for us, but we do not have to follow that plan. God did not make you an atheist, you bacame one your self.
We need to show God we still have faith in him. Why do you hate our christian nation? we still support atheism, but as a whole we a christian. GET OVER IT!
@fte26 Please list these "miracles" and the supporting proof that what happened could not have been due to anything but God's intervention. And I'm not exactly an atheist - more of an agnostic, and I became that way after reading and studying the entire Bible and realizing that it's absolute made up bullshit. Ok, let's see your "proof".
so you dont believe that god is in control of everything? if god didnt want us to be atheists he would simply snap his fingers and make it so.
and by praying to god to change things you obviously you do not trust god. it is by gods hand that oklahoma and texas have droughts. it is gods plan that thousands children come down with horrible illnesses, it is gods plan that we are in never ending wars and that loved ones die everyday.
@fte26 It's NOT a Christian nation and it never was. It's a SECULAR nation, which just happens to have +-80% Christians living in it. We do not need to show faith, we need to educate people instead of brainwashing them with bullshit.
Love it...I want to ask all those, like German morrr-mon who came to my house yesterday telling me of the end of the World in 2012, why wait, you are going to die anyway. Put you faith where you mouth is and leave this free mind alone.
Love you vids....saying it like ti is. Your a free voice in a country which has lost its freedom to conservaitve BS and religious fools. Thank you
If it rains a month after the day of prayer, xians will claim victory. The Lard was busy. Also, twenty years ago, the cathlick son of a Korean friend failed university entrance tests (even after much prayer). The boy drank a large quantity of Drano. Unfortunately, prayer worked. ;-) Last I heard, the boy remains almost a total veggie. He is almost totally blind, deaf and dumb. The prayer sure worked.
its been in the 90 s for the past three weeks here in the mid west, the hottest summer i ve ever seen, no dough global warming is real and time for mother nature to start thinning out the heard of humans
i was always partial to george carlins take on prayer, if you have'nt seen it it's out on the tube.just search carlin on religion or prayer and you should find it
Now, you've done it. Some goofball will feel called to take your challenge to defend his god. He'll put his rattlesnake down and drink Drano on camera. Don't think we'll see the video on Youtube, but we may see it in the news.
Next think you know, the cops will be at your door asking pointed questions. The reporters will follow.
great piece but you are living in a different reality to the believers.Everyone to their own i suppose but i understand the problems this system creates.If we used our hidden energies for only good in this world then we would have a party but alas there are also hidden powers that make some just plain bad arsed,usually driven by greed.
Article VI of the constitution clearly states "no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust. Rick Perry, did you read that? Also, First Amendment "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." Rick Perry, you can not force religion on this nation because it is against the constitution of this entire country.
@ViciousDave4Life There are at least 11 states that will not allow an atheist to run for public office. No religious test, unless you don't believe in religion to begin with it.
@herpiethelovebug This is also unconstitutional. Funny how the founding fathers saw this little problem cropping up way back when and actually wrote down provisions against such bias.
@herpiethelovebug They better read the fucking constitution of the United States than. Because the facts are right there when the Bill of Rights and the Constitution was made. Nobody can go against the rules and laws of this great nation. First amendment and Article VI will clearly deface those standards of those 11 states when they see the statements of the Constitution. There is no getting around it, it's our country's foundation!
I just checked the site for perry's 'response' prayer day. The event has adopted the american family association's 7 point faith doctrine thingy...
And they want them to fast that day. 100 degrees, expending *all* your energy praying [very tiresome for catholics] and no food or water. They're gonna think perry's jesus!! Who am I kidding, it even said on the site that they will have food vendors there. They are capitalists, after all :p
Rick Perry is a fucking bozo. We always see hot weather like this in Texas this time of year. I'm not 'sweatin" it...LOL....Texas did have a victory as far as the science classroom is concerned though. Creationists failed miserably to have creationism taught along side of evolution. Now we can go back to our day to day lives of sleeping with our cousins and shooting our guns and driving our gas guzzling SUVS.
@exacerbatedtaboo Now that you've secured the science classroom front, time to send the troops onto the history classroom front and push out the invaders trying to remove Thomas Jefferson from history books on account of him not being religious enough.
@tremedar Yeah I was pissed off when I heard about that as well. If I understand correctly they even wanted to do away with the word slavery and replace it with something more softer sounding. I have two kids going to Texas schools so I have a large stake in this. I want my kids to recieve the best education possible consistent with the facts. Not what a few lunatics on the TSBOE think.
The power of payer was NOT disproven by Governor Perry. On 5 August, 2011, (Note I'm including the year as to not take credit for an event that happened a decade ago.)

That's a totally selfless prayer, wouldn't you agree? Why wouldn't the cosmic zombie who loves you and all the little children of the world ignore such a prayer? Because he's bad at his job? He's a fucking douchebag? Or maybe, just maybe, he doesn't exist? What are you afraid of - your prayer won't work?
oldfartrants 7 months ago
@oldfartrants (1)Ho hum where to begin. First of all, God wont answer your prayers if its selfish if youre testing him or if its contrary to the plan he has for you. If You drink draincleaner and pray he will let you die. Most likely since its your appointed time to die and that God commands us not to test him. There's already evidence everywhere proving his existence anyway you just ignore it and are in denial because of your sinful natur. He will only heal you if someone poisons you.

@biddefordgop And by the way - it's pretty stupid to ask somebody to do something that takes 3 years! I believe I renounceed him as a prophet, on camera in a previous video, which according to the Bible God will smite you for, and he didn't smite me at all when he had the perfect chance. Go figure! I guess he does work in mysterious was after all.

I'm not a fan of telling people to kill themselves tp prove that there is a god. Some of the religious nutjobs out there might actually take the challange and an hero. Or even worse, survive for some reason (the liquid could be non-deadly due to a production error etc). There are examples of people trying to prove god's existence that way. Few months back a VT student stabbed himself with a pen in an attempt to prove to Atheist students that God exists.

I have hope. I like hope. I'm big on hope. What I don't have is faith. My Hope comes from optimism...not blind optimism that "good things will happen for no discernable reason" but based on the observation that humanity is generally good and when the shit hits the fan we tend to take positive action. Not always mind you, but often enough for me to have Hope.
So I don't need "Magic-Sky-Man" or the "Grand Wizard of Creation" to inspire me, I have our world and ourselves for that. I'm big on Hope.

Ezekiel 16:48-49 tell us: "This is the sin of Sodom; she and her suburbs had pride, excess of food, and prosperous ease, but did not help or encourage the poor and needy. They were arrogant and this was abominable in God's eyes."
Seems like the Bible contradicts wha the Christians say. sodom and Gomorrah was not about homosexuality, but people acting like conservatives. Sounds like Republicans, huh?

Do you have any hope? I am keeping my umbrella. All I know is this: Once I was blind but now I can see, and since you studied the bible you know what I mean by this for sure. Did you ever truly believe/have faith? Just asking. People are basically evil/flesh and we all need a savior.
catenadine 7 months ago
@catenadine See what religion has done to you? You think people are evil/flesh. Nothing could be further from the truth, and for you to behav e like a sheep who needs a savior just proves that the intent of religion (to break people's spirit and keep them guilty and down) is alive and well just like it was intended by the people who made it all up in the first place. How sad for you. You should really do some research on the actual origins of Christianity - use your brain to set yourself free!
oldfartrants 7 months ago
@oldfartrants I do not think people are evil/flesh; I know they are (including me). The truth sets one free to live in love and hope, allowing the nine fruits of the spirits to guide you. I need work on self control with eating ice cream/potato chips. I will no doubt die early from that. I am dying daily but the spirit is renewed daily. I have hope for something better than the sin of this world. I am forgiven and free and try to sin no more. Unless you live it you won't understand. <3

You speak well. Is this all just by accident that people are here? If more people had faith and ask then things would be different. Did you read the whole bible in chronological order? There is more to praying for anything you want; as a Christian you have to be living in love (very in depth so read the bible please). The old testament speaks of them drinking poison and living and being bitten by snakes. Faith of a mustard seed moves mountains but nonetheless faith. Umbrella???
catenadine 7 months ago
@catenadine Yes I have read and studied the entire Bible front to back at the Christian university I attended. I'm sure I know more about it than you do the research that completely debunks it. Christianity came to be by plagerizing the mythology of earlier cultures. There is no evidence outside the Bible that proves anything in it is true - if there was there would only be one religion and no one would still be arguing about it. The Bible is nothing but fairy tales and proven nonsense.
