Many others do too. Sadly many recieve no help or any answer whatsoever.

I will pray for you and them then!@Entwistle
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@Carazaa I don't want you to pray for me. I am an atheist. You insult me and my belief by saying you will pray for me. Thank you but I don't need it.
@Entwistle She was showing you that she cares about you. I'll pray that God touches your heart, sir.

@latinbutterfly You are disrespecting my wishes.I politely asked that she and now you don't pray for me.
I'm an atheist,it's a waste of your time.
@latinbutterfly You mustn't force your prayers upon those who do not want them. Know your limits. Try to understand others.
@PoetryNEmotion I'm not forcing him to do anything on his end. He doesn't have to take any action at all if he doesn't want to.

If you pray for me then I shall pray to Satan on your behalf.
@Entwistle How will you stop someone online, praying for you offline? Just saying.
@Entwistle Okay, go right ahead 🙂.

You don't know me so you can't really pray for me.

@latinbutterfly I can't stop you praying for me that's true. I can only hope that you will respect and value another person's wishes.

@Entwistle Why are you obsessed with what someone does offline in their own privacy? What's wrong with you?
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@SW-User I don't really care. I'm just seeing whether a so called Christian will respect an atheist wishes.
SW-User
It's not like she said she would do it publicly on here. If she wants to pray for you offline, that's her business. @Entwistle
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@SW-User Its not whether she prays for me on or offline. Its about respect. Respect for me as an atheist.
How would she feel if I said I'm going to pray to Allah or Buddha when I know she's neither a Muslim or a Buddhist? Ultimately it won't affect me in anyway.
I'm just seeing if a Christian can respect an atheist.
SW-User
@Entwistle Okay, so if it doesn't affect you, then why do you care?
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@SW-User ultimately I don't care. Why do you care that I care?..even though at heart I don't.
SW-User
@Entwistle Alright, you're just wasting your time worrying about what someone does offline. Your choice though.
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@SW-User I'm not worrying at all. What gave you that impression? This is a chat site and I'm just chatting and interacting that's all.
As are you.
@Entwistle Neither of them are my God so I wouldn't care.
Then just let it go. @Entwistle
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@latinbutterfly There's nothing to let go of. I'm just chatting.
You seem unable to let it go though. Do you dislike people chatting and debating?
@Entwistle Oh yeah, "just" chatting. You seem overly obsessed with what a random stranger does offline. Like I said, let it go. Deal with it.
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@latinbutterfly Like I said it matters not one iota to me whether someone prays for me on or offline. It's just disrespectful to do something when someone has asked you not to do it. Would you agree with that?
