I noticed that when people ask for prayers to help them or loved ones through a crisis they may only get about 10 but when someone wants to know why coyotes kill deer they get 10 pages. Shame on ya'll

Really? That's all you've got to complain about

not complaining just stating a fact

I pray for all of them. I don't USUALLY make a post about it because that SORTA feels like "look at me, look how nice a guy I am".

I figure the prayer does more good than letting everyone else on here know I'm doing it.

JUST FYI, IF you post a "needing prayers" thread here and I read it, you will GET AT LEAST ONE. If I don't mention I'm doing it, don't worry. I am.

...because prayer can't happen unless it's posted...

Boom.... That just happened.

I say a little prayer on every post i just don't post that I did.

What he said.

you might want to compare views to replies.

When I see a prayer request - I always read it, but more often than not I don't reply. However, I ALWAYS stop and say a prayer for the situation.

I am certain there are many, many others that do the same thing.

x2..

x3. sorry we prayed but didnt post about it.

I pray that deerman24 will never scope another human being. I really do.

You goobs can take this however you want but I say a prayer for everyone of you each day whether you have asked for it or not.I don't post about it or brag about it but it's what I do.

I pray you never start another thread like this...

Exactly my stance

Deerman24?


Kidding aside, I'll pray for every one I see, whether I read the post or not. I rarely post that I do though.

When you get through judging people for not "praying" caused they didn't post that they did, how about changing your tampon and thank god a female would even like a puss like you.. I don't know any homo's, but if I did I would picture them being like you..

The annual "who prays and who don't" thread already?

It seems to come earlier and earlier every year.

Someone will undoubtedly come along and take this the wrong way, but I'll say it anyway. It's a hunting forum. I come here as a general rule to read hunting related topics. I know we have a "General" forum that sees a hodgepodge of topics, but I my decision to visit the site was predicated mainly on the fact that it's a hunting forum. For that reason, I'm far more likely to participate in the discussion on deer and coyotes. I think you'll find that some of the serious hunting topics are the most widely responded to, period. I will occasionally participate in some of the other discussions or say a few words in support of someone, but I don't respond to all of them.

I never post I will pray....Always say one for who ask...Matthew 6:5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen.

Does this mean Deerman is invited to the Annual Aldeer gay dove hunt?

Uhhh, Negative Ghostrider..

I misunderstood. I thought that was the Daniel White way of inviting him and making him feel welcome

since i do not pray . i figured a , "i wish you the best" is not what was ask for .

Yep, nuff said.

It's a hunting site not a religious site. I'd say most posts I've seen for prayers asked people do respond. But back to the fact that this is a hunting site and not a religious site. Maybe try a religious site next time??

How do you know how many people answered his request? I often don't respond because I don't think it is needed. They don't ask for a list of who prayed for them, just for the prayers.

If I commented on every one I opened and prayed for id have nearly 18k posts, wait...

This^^^^^

I'm a member of the 700 Club, it just happens to be a Remington. I ain't got nothing against church or praying, but this ain't the place to try to turn folks into being Baptist, or getting me to feel sorry for dead cats.

I forgot about the cat...

I pray for everyone of them. Sometimes I reply to them, sometimes I don't. I don't reply to say "look at me" I reply to show the person support, to show them someone cares enough to pray for them and their situation. To bolster their spirit, not bring praise upon myself.

I usually reply to the prayer threads that have fewer replies to give them more encouragement, or to ones who are asked by people that I "know" better to show personal support.

X3

I forgot all about the cat. That thread went south quick

Where did deerman go?

Yep, he went there!

I posted months ago that if I read the prayer request, you get one. I don't have go shout from the roof tops that I believe in god.

Here's a real simple rule for you to consider...

Judge not, that ye be not judged. Matthew 7:1

X2

Couldn't of written it any better.

I am another who prays but does not post about it. I was thinking about it the other day that there are a
lot of prayers lifted that are not announced. I some one feels the need to ask for prayers, thatsbwhat he needs and gets. And I hope he knows that MOST of us will offer up a prayer even if we don't post it. God bless those who ask for his Grace.

I pray for peace on earth and aldeer.

Wow ... Now that I've gotten back up off the floor laughing my butt off I think I can keep a straight face and answer ... Yeah, some of the folks were poking fun at you and it was probably well deserved. I'll stop there and not go any farther down that hole ...

Just because I don't respond don't mean I didn't send a prayer. Some times I do respond because I want to encourage whoever posted the request. When I do I feel kind of strange ... like I'm trying to show off that I'm a Christian. As a result, I don't respond the majority of time.

So you are upset because not everyone types a reply to a prayer request and you are quick to point a finger.... But did you pray for each and everyone on this forum today? Or condemn everyone? I guess you did not pray for us since you didn't post that you prayed for us... Remember the great commission is to gather others into the church, not condemn. And how many people did you invite this week to church deerman?

peace on earth yea maybe ...peace on aldeer not a snowballs chance

I say a little prayer every time I open one of TC's thread, does that count?

Thing is with this site the folks on here are pretty dang good people and I'm sure you could probably ask anyone of them for help and they'd be there. Last year when my travel trailer broke down one of the guys I'd never met before stopped by to see if I needed any help. I'd posted in here, mostly out of frustration about it, that I'd left it at dollar general parking lot and was headed back the next day to replace the wheel bearing and he swings by on his way to hunt and checks on me. Don't assume because every post isn't answers with a "prayers sent" reply that we ain't praying. Religion is a personal thing and everybody has their own way.

^^^^^^This

My thoughts as well.

Lighten up Francis...

Lord have mercy.

I reply about 50% of the time but pray for the person requesting prayer about 100% of the time.

Looks like Deerman is the kind of fellow who wants to cast the first stone.

I don't think that everyone that prays responds as such, and I don't think everyone that responds as such actually prays.

I prayedduh!!!

Posting a request for prayers are folks that are praying out loud.

Beer cooler getting low. Prayers welcome.

When did God start tallying how many prayers a person gets?

Drinking Nattis.....you gonna need prayers.....

You're going to beer hell for that.

FIFY

sorry I brought it up. if this is just a hunting forum why is there a section on farming, vegies and football

the rifle or prayers response?

I talk my Lord and Savior many times day...I do pray for folks who seek them...I just dont always post it...
Our talks are private

both

Boredom....

No one suggested it's "just" a hunting forum. However, it is "first and foremost" a deer hunting forum. There is room for plenty of other topics, including prayer requests.
