[Levi Jones]

Prayer warriors,

We need you now more than ever to pray that Dawkins is banned for his blasphemy on the Tweeter.

Now, I don't use the Twitter, but we have friends in the media who do. They are saying that the Twitters the heathen Dawkins sends via the internets offend them.

I am sure glad I don't use the Twitter. It must be horrible! Imagine being forced to see what Dawkins posts there day after day!

From a highly respectable writer in the media.

Apparently Prof Dawkins is a genius who writes beautifully about chromosomes and cave men. Well, bully for him. But he's a bully, nonetheless. A recent Tweet that caused a stir: "Don't ask God to cure cancer & world poverty. He's too busy finding you a parking space & fixing the weather for your barbecue." Hilarious. Or on Islam: "Mehdi Hasan admits to believing Muhamed flew to heaven on a winged horse. And New Statesman sees fit to print him as a serious journalist." Of course, that's the same New Statesman that invited Dick Dawkins to edit it for a week – so, yeah, its taste is questionable. Prof Dawkins is only sending out Tweets rather than Tweeting directly at individuals – which makes him more of a passive aggressive bully than the full on shove-you-head-down-a-toilet variety.

But it gets worse! Apparently this Dawkins fellow is some sort of criminal mastermind. He sends a ton of atheist trolls on the Twitter to torment Tim. (say that fast three times)

But there are plenty of the alpha male atheists around and I've had many come knocking at my Twitter feed. I don't hate them, I don't want them banned, and they certainly don't make me want to boycott Twitter. But I would like them, and the Neanderthal Dawkins, to consider the following.

So Tim is bullied by his inability to shut Dawkins Twitters out. And he is being bullied and persecuted by atheists. My solution would definitely be to write an ad hominem laden missive. That is the surest fire way to make trolls stop.

When you insult my faith you go right to the heart of what makes me me. When you're trying to convince me in 140 characters of sub-GCSE philosophical abuse that God doesn't exist, you're trying to take away the faith that gets me up in the morning, gets me through the day and helps me sleep at night. You're ridiculing a God without whom I suspect I might not even be alive, and a God that I prayed to when my mother was going through cancer therapy. You're knocking a Church that provides me with compassion and friendship without asking for anything in return – perhaps the greatest, most wonderful discovery of my adult life. You see, people don't generally believe in God for reasons of convenience or intellectual laziness. It's usually fulfilling a deep need – filling a soul with love that might otherwise be quite empty and alone. In short, when you try to destroy someone's faith you're not being a brilliant logician. You're being a jerk.

Clearly, this man's faith is wavering. I would laugh in the angry and hateful atheists faces while reminding them of how wonderful it is going to be to watch them all burn. I am 100% certain my mommy and I will be in heaven together probably throwing rocks at the unsaved having the flesh peeled off in a lake of fire for eternity or until it gets boring (which I can't imagine it ever would).

Don't get me wrong: I'm not calling for Dawkins or his ilk to be banned.

You aren't? The headline "If we're cracking down on Twitter abuse, can we include Richard Dawkins and the atheist trolls?" really led me to think you were. It's the whole reason I started this prayer request.

That's okay, Tim. We know what you really mean. You don't want them banned and so do we!

I'm thick skinned and I can take the odd badly spelled Tweet telling me that I'm a simpleton.

Of course you can. That is why you are writing to tell us how brave you are. You are such a strong boy, Timmy. We will be praying that Dawkins and his terrorist liberal atheist minions will NOT be banned too.

Or is only liberal secularists who are allowed to take offence?

You tell them, Tim! They are not the bigger people like you are. Here you are totally not calling for them to be banned for offending you. Though, I am not sure what they are offended about, besides everything about God and creationism.
However, the important thing to remember is that WE are the victims here!

Chin up, Timmy.

Make sure you guys who do Tweeter follow Tim on the Twitting thing.
Dr Tim Stanley is a historian of the United States. His biography of Pat Buchanan is out now. His personal website is www.timothystanley.co.uk and you can follow him on Twitter @timothy_stanley.



P.S. Here is the horribly offensive Tweet Dawkins posted that offended Tim.

[Attila's Wife]

Sir, thank you for bringing this to our attention.

I am glad to say that I had never heard of the Twatter until now. It must be an unGodly device to allow the likes of Dawkins and his acolytes to spread their poison.

I had also never heard of the respected historian Timmy and have just looked him up. I have to say that his spiritual history is frankly shocking. The following is taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Stanley .

Personal Life

In October 2012 Stanley stated he was "raised a good Baptist boy". He is a convert to Roman Catholicism. Previously, he considered himself to be an Anglican, beginning around "one glorious summer" in 2002, and was baptized as an Anglican in Little St. Mary's, Cambridge in New Year 2003. He later aligned himself with the Church of England's Anglo-Catholic wing before becoming a Roman Catholic.

If this is true (and I am not discounting the possibility that his Wikipedia entry has been vandalised by Daemons) then in his short life Timmy has already moved from the one true Baptist Faith via the atheist CofE and its idolatrous militant Anglo-Cathlick wing to full-blown Roman Cathlickism. What next for him? Will we see him in Greek or Russian Orthodix robes?

From the photo, he bears a strong resemblance to a young John Trevolting and will probably end up as a Scientologist.




This is not to say he is wrong about Dawkins, just that by this time next week he may have changed his position and be preaching some new heresy.

He looks more like a young Paul Reiser.


Still, it's atheists like Dawkins who ruin twitter for normal Christians like you or me.

At least a jew can be saved

Matthew 3:7-9
But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.


unlike the alien worshippers


Corinthians 15:33
Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.

How is that Tweet not true? When it's bad weather and you want to have a BBQ, I know for sure 90% will ask God for help, oh and before you respond to this post, don't forget lying is a Sin. So; think well before you act.

Did you know that 99.4784654368925437% of statistics are pulled from someone's ass?

[Pastor Ezekiel]

I've heard that even the atheists don't like that Dawkings guy. Always angry, and snooty too. I thank Jesus for making me a mild-mannered, loving True Christian™ Pastor instead of a hellbound ranting and raving crazy foreigner.

Hey Ashamed, I would surmise that your non-existent allah doesn't get around to answering any prayers but True Christian™ are smart enough to make any necessary contingency plans concerning BBQs without tying up God's dial tone.

What disturbs me is the needless praying from scantily clad pubescent young female cheerleaders and bulked up spandex wearing Texas high school football players petitioning to win some game of no consequence (not to mention Indiana basket ball players making the cathylick sign of the cross before a penalty shot). My guess is that some of those bus accidents carrying young children had needless deaths if Jesus had not been distracted.

In the end, we have to trust and abide by the decisions that Jesus makes in His infinite wisdom and mercy.

That is all we need to know about Dorkins.

WoW!!! Really? Jesus hates Dawkins?

Your a Christian? Then you should know Jesus hates no-one and only loves all.

Once again, the illiterate and uneducated make assumptions about God and Jesus based upon what they learned from Barney the purple dinosaur.

Last week I had to go to the bathroom really badly while I was driving, and it isn't easy finding a parking space in Manhattan, where I live. Well, I asked God for help, and, sure enough, about 30 seconds later, a space opened up right in front of me. So Richard Dawkins may think prayer is funny, but I got the last laugh because the atheist behind me didn't get the parking space.

How the piffle is doctor who a satanic program? Because it involves science? (Not real science ofcourse before you guys are going to attack me on that front)

The Satanic influences in the Doctor Who program are extensive. Starting with the lie that he is a doctor (John 8:44). One of the reasons this show still exists after seven decades is because of the idea that the "Doctor" (who is not a doctor but a liar) doesn't die, he "resurrects." In this way they can keep finding new actors when the old one gets boring. How many times has he been resurrected now? Something like 27 times? Our LORD was resurrected once and that was enough to get the job done. This so-called "Doctor" ( who is not a doctor but a liar), keeps cheating death. This is clearly the idea of Satan who put it into the minds of the creators.

[H.P. Lovecraft]

Now when it comes to theological matters, I try to be very sensitive. These touch on peoples very sense of self, and identity, and we don't wish to be too offensive. At the same time, we must acknowledge that not everyone is at an agreement on the divine objective reality. Some people believe this god exists, some believe that god exists, and some don't believe in any gods what-so-ever. What we should all be able to agree on is that prayer is a very personal affair. It has been with our species for thousands of years, and there are many types of prayer. The prayer of supplication, the one that we're looking at here, is perhaps one of the oldest. People have been trying to trick, to plead with, and to convince higher powers to bend the universe to our very limited will. And there are many different types of supplications. Song, tears, and of course blood. In this more "Civil" contemporary society it is considered a touch unhygienic and uncouth to carry about too many anatomical sacrifices. So I suggest you leave that particular method alone. While we may not agree one which god(s) exist or that god(s) exist at all, I think we can also agree that the idea of a god is powerful enough itself. It can move entire nations. It can make men and women do practically anything. Good or Evil. And if you do so choose to pray to a god. Keep in mind that you might be imbuing the idea of them with a touch more reality than it is safe for mankind. It would not do, to pay them so much attention. Because they might pay attention to you. And I believe that is all I have to say on the matter.

I started following Dawkin's twits as a result of this thread and so far they have failed to amuse me, probably because he is old and infested with matters of death. I am investigating this forum and so far find it fascinating for various values of math that I solved, wait, I hear a spirit in the distance that must be condemned for existing, for I am Beets Flavin, who scours the very edge of redemption for any unnatural acts. It seems now that I must introduce myself, like it is way important.
