| Pesky Christians:be silent.

This is to "Sue" my new office co-worker and any other that feels the need to convert me and throw me into a box.
"Sue" read more of your bible and be silent with your daily prayers:
Matthew 6
5. And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6.But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
7.But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

The point of that verse is to not pray out loudly for the purpose of making youself look good. Thats what the Pharisees did. They yelled their prayers because they wanted the PEOPLE to think they were holy...Jesus was saying to pray from your heart not from your mind...pray to God...not to pray to impress others.
I don't know what your Co-worker "sue" is doing... there are alot of people that claim to be Christians but are really just judgemental beings. Just don't through all Christians into a bowl because there are us christians that just care about other people and sharing Gods word with others... I would never force it down anyone's throte or anything though...its a choice... if it wasn't...it would be dictatorship. anyhow... just my thoughts on it.
