prayers for Morrissey thread
Prayers don't work. Forget it. You may ask well invoke the intervention of the Flying Teapot.

Tell me more about this Great Flying Teapot!!! Does it give lottery numbers?

then how about an invocation of hope for good health.
Works for me. In the same way as "Best Wishes on your new job" and so forth. We don't need sky wizards.

That's all fine and good, and I agree with you. I have enough tact to keep it to myself and respect those who think otherwise, though.Prayers don't work. Forget it. You may ask well invoke the intervention of the Flying Teapot.

I'm a bit old for the smug internet atheist routine, and I can tell from your avatar that I'm a lot younger than you.
I honestly could not give a flying one. Religions - ALL religions are based on lies. And quite frankly I couldn't give a toss who I offend by saying that. None whatsoever. Religions deserve no respect at all. None. And adherents and their belief systems get none from me.

It's got nothing to do with you being all punk rock and anti-religion — trust me, I'm with you, and I'd be willing to bet that a majority of posters who frequent here don't particularly subscribe to religion. It's about what comforts people, and if people posting good wishes of any kind for Morrissey comforts them, that's good. The opposite — telling people that what comforts them is shit — tends to rustle unnecessary feathers. No one's asking you to hold a rosary, or to even look at this thread. Yes, you have the freedom to post whatever wherever, but if you're truly a levelheaded person, why antagonize people about what comforts them? It's not going to change their belief or the way they feel. Seems rather pointless.

You missed my point, which is that grown men shouldn't be so damn insecure as to need to point these things out just to validate their own latent, left over sense of teenage angst and rebellion... Father Morrissey being the obvious exception.I honestly could not give a flying one. Religions - ALL religions are based on lies. And quite frankly I couldn't give a toss who I offend by saying that.

EDIT: Either way, I suppose this wasn't the place for it. Sorry, everyone.
