Stucky QOTD: A Demon Prayer at a Football Game

Good Lawd Jehobah Almighty, this just pisses me off!!! Chaplain Matthew Pawlikowski (dumb Pollack) gave this prayer at last week’s Army-Navy football game;

 “God of wonders, some wonder why we pray for a football game. So I tell them in this game, every player on the field is willing to die for every person watching. And there is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for what is truly good.  And so, God, I do pray for these players on this field and all the good they represent. Their fellow cadets and midshipmen, soldiers, sailors, Marines, firefighters, first responders, police, and countless others who lay down their lives daily in our defense because in your eyes, God, it’s not the critic who counts but those who actually step in to the arena. And so, almighty God, we who are willing to die for others, we salute you. Let this game begin. Amen.”

Q1:  Does this actually sound like a prayer to the Creator of the universe ………. or, more like a lecture to American Sheeple to be obedient sheep?
Q2:  What do you imagine GOD — not you!! — thinks when people ask Him to bless the military and copfuks?
—-Q2A (optional):  What do you imagine the Creator of the universe thinks when believers pray for stupid shit like blessing their BicMac&Fries “to their body”, or to get rid of their demon of headaches, or to get a nice parking space at the mall?

———————————————— –

Breaking News —- the Russians are going to build a Military Church. Colonel General Andrei Kartapolov, insists the new place of worship will bolster the spiritual values of its armed forces. The military church will be painted khaki green in “the colour of the standard Russian missile system and armoured vehicle”.  See here.   Gonna look like this;

Q3:  Maybe I’m wrong!  Maybe we should go “all in”!   Should the United States also build a Christian Military Church?

===========

Me?

Q1: Most definitely, that was no  “prayer”!  It was instruction to plebes to obey their masters.

Q2: When you pray for something, especially if that something already has power over you then you legitimize that something. And you legitimize it as being ordained by God himself!  So, just imagine … copfuks believing they are doing God’s work??  That’s an open invitation for slaughtering sheep. No thanks, I’ll have no part in praying for cops or armies!!

Q2A:  If you pray over your french fry, or some similar trivial crap, God immediately and forever puts you on his Do-Not-Answer list. Praying over a french fry when there are a billion or more people going hungry that very day?  Me and God both think you’re an asshole, and should be ignored forevermore.

Q3: We absolutely MUST build a Military Church!!  You see, Russia is our enemy. But, and this is most important, they are ALSO  Christian!! So, let’s say we are about to exchange 5,000 nukes each.  Trump prays — “Oh Great God, please let America survive this war!”  Putin prays — “Oh Great God, please let Mother Russia survive this war!” Who does God listen too??? Clearly, it will me the country which loves God more and that love will be expressed by who has the biggest church.  [That’s in the Bible, and our annoying poster GCP, will gladly supply you with 37 verses .. which you won’t read anyway.] Anyway, since war has been America’s religion since virtually from our country’s birth, I say we add a few steeples to the Pentagon, a bunch of Jeebus and Jehobah (J&J) pictures, and a picture of Pastor Trump …. and we just got the biggest damned church on the planet!!  The Apostle Bolton and Bishop Pompeo can then launch all ten thousand of our nukes knowing full well that J&J will protect us, bless us, and make America great again in the aftermath.

I am not God and cannot guess as to his mind any more than an ant can ponder the mind of a man.

We are told that God looks at the heart..so any humble prayer of gratitude for one’s blessings shows a mind that is heaven focused… nothing is too small to be thankful for.

A1: It sounds like a lecture but that is why they made pulpits in first place.

Q2: What do you imagine GOD — not you!! — thinks when people ask Him to bless the military and copfuks?
A1: He laughs and goes back to bar where the whores are…

Q2A (optional): What do you imagine the Creator of the universe thinks when believers pray for stupid shit like blessing their BicMac&Fries “to their body”, or to get rid of their demon of headaches, or to get a nice parking space at the mall?
A2A: He ain’t listening cuz he’s banging the whores…

It was lame (there was no vestments, smoke, holy water; no ritual objects and motions, incantations, chants etc). It was a little show like saluting the flag, not a private personal prayer to God Our Father in Heaven. God probably just nodded in disapproval like we do when somebody farts at a bad time. But at least TPTB allowed a nominal public prayer to God. All good Christians pray and work for the day this nation has a real Epiphany about God, and Preachers everywhere preach like Peter did on Solomon’s Porch (Acts 3).

Q1. Not a prayer. A real football prayer attributed to a football coach of a semipro team in Saskatchewan, who putatively said this to his players before every game: “Lord Jesus Christ, help us crush their spines.”

Q2. If God is smart, and I think if he exists, his IQ is like 10 million, he wouldn’t listen to a thing we pathetic humans say.

Q2a. He thinks, “Fuck off and leave me alone.”

Q3. He should build a Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, which would be my religion if I had a religion.

It was nothing but rubbish coming out of his mouth. Besides he said nothing about Jesus Christ. You always end praying but saying ” I pray through the Spirit and in name of my Lord Jesus Christ.” Prayer is always to the Father in the Spirit through the Lord
Jesus Christ.
As far as military church . The answer is no and hell no. Everything under the sun would want to come just to be recognized by the state. Including Satanist and religious homosexuals of ever kind.
Just got a phone call from an organization that represents police.I ask if they were connected to or part of the Freemasons. I ask three times . He gave me the same bullshit answer .

That’s a weak and unfocused prayer, the kind described as praying with himself like the Pharisee.

The time for prayer is over when the battle begins.

Then the man of God approached the king of Israel and said, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Because the Arameans think the LORD is a god of the hills and not of the valleys, I will deliver all this great army into your hand. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”

“You come against me with a dagger, spear, and sword, but I come against you in the name of the LORD of Hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand. This day I will strike you down, cut off your head, and give the carcasses of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the creatures of the earth. Then the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel.…

You speak without understanding because you have been indoctrinated by stupid ‘comedians’ who claim that the god of the OT is evil. You don’t have understanding. I hope you can get some illumination somehow. There is much darkness inside of you. But I already knew that from a long time ago. I already rebuked you before, I guess you forgot.

The prayer sounds like it came from a MIC Copsucker.

“Demiurge, some wonder why we pray for a football game. So I tell them in this game, every pawn on the field is willing to die for some fat new world order fucking psychopath. And there is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for the profits of the Rothchilds. And so, Yaldabaoth, I do pray for these pawns and all the profit they represent. Their fellow cadets and midshipmen, soldiers, sailors, Marines, firefighters, first responders, police, and countless other mindless order-takers who destroy lives daily in the pursuit of profit and control, because in your eyes, Demiurge, it’s not the pawn who counts but those who actually profit from their foolish ignorance. And so, almighty Demiruge, we who are willing to kill the useless eaters for our own enjoyment and profit, we salute you. Let this game begin. Amen.”

There I fixed it for you Stucky

@therealDiogenes- Glad you are back!!

Our military has been controlled by Luciferians for years, so no big surprise here Stucky.

Q1- Yes, that was without doubt a command to Da Sheep to slaughter and be slaughtered and obey.

Q2- We don’t need no military church for Lucifer.

Q2A- Da Lawd knows we are dumb and that GOOD Christians pray over McD fake food, but we are forgiven for our trespasses. Some of us are extra dumb like the evangelical Christians who watch Faux News and support ME undeclared wars like DT and the war hawks are talking up.

Nice story by Mark Twain, 1904

The War Prayer

It was a time of great and exalting excitement. The country was up in arms, the war was on, in every breast burned the holy fire of patriotism; the drums were beating, the bands playing, the toy pistols popping, the bunched firecrackers hissing and sputtering; on every hand and far down the receding and fading spreads of roofs and balconies a fluttering wilderness of flags flashed in the sun; daily the young volunteers marched down the wide avenue gay and fine in their new uniforms, the proud fathers and mothers and sisters and sweethearts cheering them with voices choked with happy emotion as they swung by; nightly the packed mass meetings listened, panting, to patriot oratory which stirred the deepest deeps of their hearts and which they interrupted at briefest intervals with cyclones of applause, the tears running down their cheeks the while; in the churches the pastors preached devotion to flag and country and invoked the God of Battles, beseeching His aid in our good cause in outpouring of fervid eloquence which moved every listener.

It was indeed a glad and gracious time, and the half dozen rash spirits that ventured to disapprove of the war and cast a doubt upon its righteousness straightway got such a stern and angry warning that for their personal safety’s sake they quickly shrank out of sight and offended no more in that way.

Sunday morning came – next day the battalions would leave for the front; the church was filled; the volunteers were there, their faces alight with material dreams-visions of a stern advance, the gathering momentum, the rushing charge, the flashing sabers, the flight of the foe, the tumult, the enveloping smoke, the fierce pursuit, the surrender! – then home from the war, bronzed heros, welcomed, adored, submerged in golden seas of glory! With the volunteers sat their dear ones, proud, happy, and envied by the neighbors and friends who had no sons and brothers to send forth to the field of honor, there to win for the flag or, failing, die the noblest of noble deaths. The service proceeded; a war chapter from the Old Testament was read; the first prayer was said; it was followed by an organ burst that shook the building, and with one impulse the house rose, with glowing eyes and beating hearts, and poured out that tremendous invocation – “God the all-terrible! Thou who ordainest, Thunder thy clarion and lightning thy sword!”

Then came the “long” prayer. None could remember the like of it for passionate pleading and moving and beautiful language. The burden of its supplication was that an ever – merciful and benignant Father of us all would watch over our noble young soldiers and aid, comfort, and encourage them in their patriotic work; bless them, shield them in His mighty hand, make them strong and confident, invincible in the bloody onset; help them to crush the foe, grant to them and to their flag and country imperishable honor and glory.

An aged stranger entered and moved with slow and noiseless step up the main aisle, his eyes fixed upon the minister, his long body clothed in a robe that reached to his feet, his head bare, his white hair descending in a frothy cataract to his shoulders, his seamy face unnaturally pale, pale even to ghastliness. With all eyes following him and wondering, he made his silent way; without pausing, he ascended to the preacher’s side and stood there, waiting.

With shut lids the preacher, unconscious of his presence, continued his moving prayer, and at last finished it with the words, uttered in fervent appeal,”Bless our arms, grant us the victory, O Lord our God, Father and Protector of our land and flag!”

The stranger touched his arm, motioned him to step aside – which the startled minister did – and took his place. During some moments he surveyed the spellbound audience with solemn eyes in which burned an uncanny light; then in a deep voice he said

“I come from the Throne – bearing a message from Almighty God!” The words smote the house with a shock; if the stranger perceived it he gave no attention. “He has heard the prayer of His servant your shepherd and grant it if such shall be your desire after I, His messenger, shall have explained to you its import – that is to say, its full import. For it is like unto many of the prayers of men, in that it asks for more than he who utters it is aware of – except he pause and think.

“God’s servant and yours has prayed his prayer. Has he paused and taken thought? Is it one prayer? No, it is two – one uttered, the other not. Both have reached the ear of His Who hearth all supplications, the spoken and the unspoken. Ponder this – keep it in mind. If you beseech a blessing upon yourself, beware! lest without intent you invoke a curse upon a neighbor at the same time. If you pray for the blessing of rain upon your crop which needs it, by that act you are possibly praying for a curse upon some neighbor’s crop which may not need rain and can be injured by it.

“You have heard your servant’s prayer – the uttered part of it. I am commissioned by God to put into words the other part of it – that part which the pastor, and also you in your hearts, fervently prayed silently. And ignorantly and unthinkingly? God grant that it was so! You heard these words: ‘Grant us the victory, O Lord our God!’ That is sufficient. The whole of the uttered prayer is compact into those pregnant words. Elaborations were not necessary. When you have prayed for victory you have prayed for many unmentioned results which follow victory – must follow it, cannot help but follow it. Upon the listening spirit of God the Father fell also the unspoken part of the prayer. He commandeth me to put it into words. Listen!

“O Lord our Father, our young patriots, idols of our hearts, go forth to battle – be Thou near them! With them, in spirit, we also go forth from the sweet peace of our beloved firesides to smite the foe. O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with their little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it – for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.

(After a pause)

“Ye have prayed it; if ye still desire it, speak! The messenger of the Most High waits.”

It was believed afterward that the man was a lunatic, because there was no sense in what he said.

Have to tell you this…Besides scanning the titles of recent new posts, I scan the recent comments, and typically click on certain platform regulars whose viewpoints interest me. You’re one of about 15, Vic.
You too, Stucky. Quite a few others.
I’m not the only one employing that strategy, for sure.
The benefits of that, for me, realized:
Coming back to a post from a day or two ago reveals some gems, like dan’s comment above, with the Twain story…what a great submission. I had to C, P, and print that one off.
Another benefit is, it linked into the value of keeping an open mind, and remembering that
“not so fast” is a good idea, when tempted to quickly agree with someone’s righteous claim(s).
Case in point: (2)
One, here in this post, is the danger of getting swept up in the religious or patriotic fervor of supporting our troops that Twain puts so clearly. I’ve been guilty of that in the past. Then along comes this, and a re-thinking of one’s position, if open minded enough, emerges.
Christianity as well as other religions have those aspects that tend to reveal a flawed hypocrisy.
Since Christ loathed the hypocrites, I like to think supporting war is hypocritical for faithful believers.
It’s also why I like Emmit Fox’s “Sermon on the Mount” as he interprets and conveys what he thinks Christ tried to teach. . . in contrast to all forms of Christianity. Catholic doctrines for sure.
Scripture from bibles are subject to different interpretations; all think they have it correct.
Some have it incorrect.

The 2nd case in point circles back to the James Fields trial post, originally put forth, and tempting to jump on the bandwagon of that original position stance. Later, along come 2 or 3 big dogs who I also pay attention to, who effectively rebut the original claim of injustice. i.e. Yo, then RiNS and Llpoh.
Kneejerk reaction was: damn. another pile on shitfest, as Otter noted.
But, upon more open minded consideration, a mind was changed, and a new position taken.
180 degrees.

A few final takeaways:
-There being two sides to every argument, I try to be willing to wait for both,
before considering one as the absolute, undeniable truth.

-War truly is hell. Miserable, wrong, and should almost never be sought after. Man’s flawed religious views about the justification of it are not what any Supreme Creator / Overlord would approve of, almost certainly. So, supporting it, under just about any reason for its justification, is probably flawed, save for trying to prevent one’s own demise or extinction. Seek truth there, though, too.

-Returning back to a post, to view the accumulated opinions, has merit. Sometimes, the quick responses rule the thread, but like giving fruit time to ripen, it later has a sweeter flavor, and is way more enjoyable. So, delayed responses and reviews have some benefit. Meg noted that a time or two.
When Stuck noted that dan’s Twain comment only had 4 upvotes, it was still early in the thread.
When revisited today, there were 16, then 17 after I had a chance to read it.

-Not so fast…
A new motto to keep in mind, when tempted to fall prey to
-Do it now, Decide quickly, and Stand by your original position.

Or, have an opinion, for now, but reserve the right to change one’s mind, after other considerations.
This amazing place really has some incredibly intelligent minds.
Even if disagreements arise.
I’ve learned.
And continue to learn, all things considered.

Circular logic, Big’. I have read a lot of fucked up ideas, yours is but one. There was an old lady who asked me why the Jews went through so much under Hitler. I had no good answer. There is another fucked up idea that made the rounds; Jesus failed.

Now, I think the Jews went through all that because the world had to learn there is only one god. They were given so many lessons and proofs yet still lacked the faith necessary to believe him. The world can invent thousands of gods in their pantheon of divinities but only one god has announced from the beginning how things will play out every step of the way.

Believe what you will, or as the Satanic church says, do as thou wilt. Pray that your god can lead you to victory. Prayer alone may not help you if you are on the wrong side. The bible says the forces of god will prevail.

Chaplains always made me think they were the American version of a political officer in the russkie army lmao. Seriously though, theyvare the second most useless people in the army. Chaplain’s assistant being the most useless. Downvotes away. I will take Rochefoucauld and Nietzsche over chaplains any day on the real battlefield and not some fucking watered down version of gladiator combat like fussball.

Q1: not a prayer but a sacrificial incantation to throw yourself on the cutting block for the greater good of profit, not prophet.

Q2: Dude, yes dude (only a male deity would be dumb enough to create a female of the species), would not give one fuck about getting a wig for a bald chemo patient since the same logic could be applied to the will of god giving cancer patient cancer.

Q3: Some form of zealot based ideology will need to be created or rebuilt to counter the fucking commie resurgence on the free shit army side. I prefer the church of financial profit to god or the church of anarcho-capitalism. Fuck it, may as well go full anti-anti-fascist fascist.

Once I am done donating all my downvotes received to the church of pipedreams, I will probably go back to the range and keep pondering why Christianity went to the King James version instead of sticking with a vengeful god that was intolerant. If the rule got Christianity to this point then what good was the rule?

To each their own ultimately. Just glad I am no longer ordered to sit through a bullshit benediction from chaplains just to have my principles questioned by people that cannot fathom my ability to live in the now and not worry about any religion and the glaring contradictions throughout their texts.

Fuck it dude. I am going bowling and hitting the range. Maybe in that order too.
