Re: Please Pray for Richard Dawkins who suffered a stroke!

I know it's controversial with some Christians [Famed Atheist Richard Dawkins Suffers Stroke — and Now a Debate Over Praying for Him Is Lighting up Twitter; Debate Rages Over Praying for Atheist Richard Dawkins After Stroke; richard dawkins stroke], but I am firmly on the side of NOT praying for him. No offense, but I cannot, in good faith, pray for a man whom God has called on Darwin's Birthday to repent of his evil attempts to persuade Americans to reject the saving, conditional love of Jesus, and embrace instead the destructive, hedonistic religion of evolutionary belief. These are just a few of the despicable things he's said over the years, and the LORD tells us very clearly not to throw pears before swine, such as prayers on behalf of Richard Dawkins (Matthew 7:6):

"That's the amazing thing about evolution: One day you have a butterfly, and the very next day it might evolve into a frog or a rabbit."

"To this day, the mystery of why evolution didn't get rid of monkeys upon creating us, remains one of the biggest challenges to evolutionary theory."

"Think about it - all of the life on earth that we know of; from the simplest amoebas to the halibut, all of them evolved from monkeys."

"Our world is astonishing. Just the thought that the food you are eating share the same atoms as my feces is a beautiful thought which removes any need for a god."

"People constantly ask me, isn't evolution based on faith? To which I answer, of course. Rather than simply putting our faith in God, we put our faith in my great-grandfather, Charles Darwin."

He is a wicked and evil man and I expect very soon he will be in Hell with Anne Frank, Mother Teresa and just about every single Asian ever born but I will never let this man stand before me and my beloved Jesus Christ. In stead I shall do Christ's bidding and offer up my other cheek.

Many are deserving of the Hell fire and some are more deserving than others.

Re: Please Pray for Richard Dawkins who suffered a stroke!

I am really concerned for his salvation since he is a proud anti-theist like the late Christopher Hitchens. In Matthew 10, Jesus said that He will deny others before God if they deny Him before others; yet He resanctified Simon Peter in John 22 even though he denied Christ in John 18. We should pray for Mister Dawkins as we are to pray for our enemies as Matthew 5 and Luke 6 say, but we must also acknowledge the fact that some will go to Hell as is common throughout the Scriptures.

As was foretold:

De:28:14: And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.
De:28:15: But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:
[...]
De:28:28 The LORD shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart:

I feel that the Lord will take him soon and carry him on down to Hell. That is his just dessert.

Brothers,

I think we all have our fair share of war with this man.
But now he is in hospital after a stroke. Let us use this moment of God's punishment and forgive this man what he has done to Jesus.

Right now Richard Dawkins is probably heavily sorry for the atheism he spread and I want everyone to pray extra hard for him now.

As Dawkins wrote in "the God delusion" prayer gives a statistically worse outcomes then those that who not were prayed for but didn't know it. The proposed explanation is that they felt pressure from the expectation created by the prayers.

I think if the whole world now starts praying for Richard Dawkins, he might rethink what he wrote.
