I do not appreciate or endorse Afra's attacks against
believers, but I too would humbly ask Salus and other
like-minded people not to pray for me.

Cheers,

May be coz u r Christian u took it as anti, it was anti Religion.
Any one who goes to god or gods, does so out of desperation.
1. They cannot control the situation they are in. Therefore they are control 
freaks (like it or not)
2. They go to god coz s/he does not say things against you, secondly coz the 
people in this world have failed your expectations, therefore u ask the gods 
to interfere on your behalf. (again to gain control)
Those who go to god are either control freaks (priests/pundits/mullhas etc.) 
or frustrated control freaks (ordinary people who could not gain control by 
fair means or foul).

Afra has been known to write crap on this forum before.  In fact jc has just 
brought out some of her 'tosh'!!!  We who have faith, do so because we have met 
our Saviour, and not for any of the reasons that Afra mentions.  Is she or does 
she think she is an authority on every subject?  Or is this just a case of 
sensationalisation, seeking attention?  I just wonder!

All I can say is that we need to hold her and other like minded persons in our 
prayers, so that they may be enlightened some day.  Each one's faith or belief 
is their own personal thing, and no one has tried to impose it on Afra or 
anyone else.  So I fail to understand the acidity in her thoughts against those 
who believe.  Maybe it was her lack of faith and total trust in God that has 
led her to think that God had failed her.  Well, lets all say a prayer for her. 
 And finally I wont be surprised if someone else rises to her rescue!  Well we 
will pray for those persons too!!!

And finally, please understand that you do not have to respond and always have 
the last word!
