My prayers will magically bring everyone back to life and help others find the people who are missing.

Yep, only about an hour from my home. Been there camping many times. I just hope the death/missing count doesn't keep going up.

I dont understand, if god is perfect, this happened because he/she wanted it to, so doesnt praying is going against his/her will?

I will do no such thing because there are millions of people who suffer each day, and their tragedies aren't made known to anyone.. and yet we focus on these petty events the media tells us about. You honor nobody but doing so. Including the people you claim to be sympathizing with.

Indeed. Nowadays I see more atheists evangelizing than theists. Kind of strange.

Really, everyone get back on the topic or we'll have to close it. This topic has nothing to do with your religious views, or being an Atheist. Just about the situation that happened here in AR.

Exactly...i'm still shocked that people used this as a chance to attack religion just because the topic title is "Pray for those in Arkansas"..
