19. Hey I pray often throughout the day but you wouldn't know it.
The right wing religious nutcases have hijacked Christianity and hold Jesus (concept) hostage.

I pray often but quitely (looks like I'm resting my eyes) ... no way do I wish to draw attention to myself because PRAYER (to the liberal Catholic and other true left Christians)is between the individual and their God. Christian prayer is encouraged to be an intense and private matter - save for Mass.

The people who make an event of prayer are not following the teachings of Christ. Guess that is no surprise because they also have conveniently forgot to serve the poor and outcast instead of their obsessive desire to aquire increasing wealth.

Just because someone attends Church and makes their activities visible by praying in mass, does NOT, in any way, reflect a true Christian genuinely serving God with all their heart and soul.

IMHO * is a false prophet. It saddens me to know that many of my fellow parishners have bought into such cruel sentiments of superiority (USA!) and false promises for the future.
