apologize. I didn't realized you were so thin-skinned. I guess you really
don't know how you sound when you write and would prefer to keep it that
way.

I can tell that you are very busy. Pretty much anyone who subscribes to a
list-serv like this must be. I just thought that was a weird thing to say if
you don't specifically know. 

I don't know about CC praying for praying for "literal harm on tangible
opponents" (quite the turn of phrase) again - I think hearing "Dear Lord,
please break Michaels leg" in church would be pretty bizzare, but I read
about this David guy that used to do that all the time. 

A!

 

 

Me:

 

So if they did pray that God would break my leg, this would be fine?  I'm
not sure what your argument here is.

 

"literal" is for the purpose of clarifying that the prayers are not always
"spiritual" or "generally speaking." The "tangible" is for the purpsoe of
clarifying that there are particular people in mind at times.  I think this
way of saying it is important.

 

Blessings,

 

Michael
