The Insanity behind Silly Prayer
When doctors pray, they pray to God to make people sick, not healthy. It’s the only way to stay in the medical profession. When lawyers pray, they pray to God to make people commit more crimes. It’s the only way they can make a success of their legal career. When politicians pray, they pray to God to keep the voters stay as ignorant as ever. It’s the only way politicians get elected or re-elected.When priests pray, they pray to God to make the faithful commit more sins. It’s the only way they can make more money for the Vatican bank. When policemen pray, they pray to God for more lawlessness and disorder in society. It’s the only way they can keep their job. When fire-fighters pray, they pray to God for houses and buildings to catch fire. It’s the only way they can keep their job as firemen of the Fire Department. When prostitutes pray, they pray to God for more cheating husbands or for more horny customers. It’s the only they can continue to earn a living. When amputees pray, they pray to God to have back their amputated arms or legs restored. But the amputees, despite the power of prayer, are still without legs or arms. When the rich pray, they pray to God for more riches. When the poor pray, they pray to God to get them out of poverty. I used to pray a lot too. More than 65 years ago, I often prayed to God to destroy Satan so that I can become less of a sinner. God did not give a hoot. Satan, still alive, did not give a hoot and endlessly carried on his Satanism. So I was happily left alone to give a serious hoot to strengthen the root of my atheism. Poch Suzara
