I say this prayer every night. Please join me.
"Dear Lord: The last fifteen or twenty years have been very tough.
You have taken my favorite actor - Paul Newman ; my favorite actress - Elizabeth Taylor ; my favorite singer - Andy Williams ; my favorite author -Tom Clancy ; and now, my favorite comedians - Robin Williams and Joan Rivers.
I just wanted you to know that my favorite politicians are Barack Obama , Joe Biden , Hillary Clinton , Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid , and I ALSO have a special place in my heart for Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton. In Your Name I pray.....amen!

And you sit there, and wonder why the Muslims hate us. No religion is a joke, you people ask for prayers like you are passing out tic tacs, have respect for your own religion.

Dreamaker, I think it's possible that God has a sense of humor. After all, he created my face!
Good one, Jess!

If you are referring to the Christian on God! Then ask the people of Sodom and Gomorra if he has a sense of humor. Religion is serious thing to me, which ever one we choose keeps us focused, but we need to respect it, not toy with it. |

I'm not going to go too deep into a religious discussion but my God, who is the Christian God gave man the ability and free will to choose between right and wrong. We haven't always chosen that correct path. |

I believe you had the best intentions in your thread, and I apologize for my rudeness to you. But it is time after time, people show disrespect for anyone's religious beliefs. And I had to get it off my chest. |

Whoa ! This thread turned to crap pretty quick. I'm not a very religious person by most standards. And I get it that it was a joke. BUT I'm not sure if God would approve of a joke about praying for someone's death. But I could be wrong also. (I'm not very good at deciphering Gods thoughts)

This is obviously a political joke. There is nothing there to mock any religion. You are concerned about "why the Muslims hate us"? An entire society governed under brutal Sharia laws that actively condone the likes of stoning and beheading and WE are the problem?? Really? And the Muslims don't hate us. They simply believe in Islam. And only Islam to the exclusion of all else. That is what makes it inherently violent. The moderate Muslims are simply not violent.....yet. |

If you cannot respect yourself, or if you cannot respect the thing you say you believe in, how can you expect persons you are trying to influence to respect you, what you say or what you believe in. Every major or monumental thing begins with something small, floods starts with a drop of water, journeys start with the first step, so the point is when you take that snow ball and roll it down the hill it can become a major issue. Disrespect and hatred isn't any different, difference is the Muslims respect what they believe in. Americans have TV and the Internet to believe in, and don't even feel the rug being pulled out from beneath them. American refuse to see the progression that things happen in, they just want to see the end product. And when things goes South they look for excuses and Sacrificial Lamb and become experts after the fact. In the next breath they can't understand why everyone hates us. The End!! |

Understand something, I am not a religious fanatic or a religious hypocrite, If you met me in person, you would never know I have such respect for all religions. I don't preach, I just ask for respect for others.

Below are 2 sights that have that prayer as a joke, its not real by any means and God does have a sense of humor. He created us didn't He, no really I am not offended by this at all if it had been true it would be different. If anyone needs a story from the bible that I believe kind of shows God's sense of humor below is one. Mat_17:27 "However, so that we do not offend them, go to the sea and throw in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up; and when you open its mouth, you will find a shekel. Take that and give it to them for you and Me." https://www.facebook.com/judylacey/posts/10205026913105225https://www.facebook.com/mattakocian/posts/10204953669075621I understand that Dreamaker could take offense especially if he thought it was true. Sometimes we are sensitive to things that God is doing in our lives and we act it out in worldly ways. I have done this not understanding the conviction in my spirit. Moses was a good example of the conviction in his spirit but not knowing how to act it out. Exo_2:14 But he said, "Who made you a prince or a judge over us? Are you intending to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?" Then Moses was afraid and said, "Surely the matter has become known." Moses knew that he was going to deliver God's people but he did not understand how, so he acted it out in the natural. We have other examples of this like the promise to Abraham about his decedents filling the earth. He and Sarah could not understand how this was going to be possible and considerable time had passed and they were old. Their solution was Hagar the maid of Sarah but we are still dealing with the consequences of that decision today. So in this kind of sensitivity to the calling of the lord ask God to explain why and how you have this feeling. Maybe its not just a wrong thought but a God thought. But don't expect all to understand your concern when God has given you the insight into a situation or idea. To know God is to love God and sometimes He speaks to us and we don't understand. |

i think some one on here drinks a lot and when something like this comes up he flies off the handle to turn it into something it's not. its happened before more than once .i have the tendency to ignore his post sometimes,, some people just cant take a joke,,maybe they have a sad life, i dont know,,,but i do know that any religion that kills people needs to be exterminated,,(hmmm that sounds like a double standard)..

Nice try, I don't drink at all. Actually I live a productive, healthy life, I just don't talk, think and act like a women, I say what I feel, and enjoy brain storming, and not afraid to express myself, just maybe looking for solutions.

there is a difference in the lifestyles of the north and south, my second wife is from marquette michigan, we moved up there after we got married and after 6 months i had had enough of those arrogant people and had to get back home to tx. so i dont blame you personally, its just the way ya'll are.. when we tell a joke ya'll take it personally, we are a happy go lucky kind of folks and ya'll are a serious kind of folks..i guess this thread got hijacked enough...

I've lived in Texas and traveled all over the South. Been all over the U S of A and met and talked with a LOT of folks. Humor is "different" in different parts of the country. Thought initially when I read it the first time it was funny and I still think it's funny. BUT-there's that word again!-BUT I KNOW I have a warped sense of humor. You are NOT required to like it and if you git yer knickers in a wad git over it. There will ALWYS be some humor that pisses people off. In his life George Carlin pissed people off every day and he laughed all the way to the bank. Sides-if the dems git another potus-NONE of us will be laughing very much.  RIDE SAFE. |

We went to see a Muslim tribute band last night at a local Mosque.
They were called "Bomb Jovi".
Brilliant songs like “Losing my head over you” .....“Rocket Launcher Man”
......“You’re 8, You’re beautiful, and you’re mine”
Their last song "Living on a Prayer Mat" almost
brought the house down.
Then this Muslim bloke started bragging about how he had the entire
Koran on DVD. I was interested, so I asked him, "Can you burn me a copy?"
And that was when the trouble started . . .(those pricks have no sense of humor!)

Did you have some trouble with posting the Mohammad photograph? Or would that be the original "photo bomb"? |
