Since all pray to Jesus isn't that keeping the poor sod alive and in agony in an afterlife? Would it be better to not mention his name and let him rest in peace? Or those that constantly screaming for Jesus to help find lost car keys, or a good parking spot, or even to find a bag of money from a drug deal gone bad enough to keep Jesus always working and not letting him go rest?

Great post if your intent was to make no sense at all.

How do you know that Jesus wants to stay alive to serve peoples desires? I think that Jesus should be allowed to rest in peace. If Jesus is the Jesus I know then he is in agony anytime someone invokes his name for a request.

Please let Jesus rest in peace and seek another to invoke supernatural intervention on your behalf.

Can't. There are no active volcanoes where I live.

Regarding the bolded bit: Somebody else - also a Jesus-is-God believer - will say the Jesus s/he knows skips and dances happily whenever someone invokes his name for whatever non-profane reason.

Another might say Jesus nods wearily whenever it happens.

Another might say he just forwards it in an email to his dad.

As KV so elegantly put it:

And so it goes.

And so your agenda is made clear. My guess is that you believe in one less god than I. Troll much?

Jesus told me in prayer that he is in agony when ever anyone invokes his name( I begged forgiveness for what I did). Jesus wants to be left alone to rest in peace. Since that seems to be hard for you to understand, let's take the case of Jack Lord( noted actor). It has been disclosed that television broadcasts will radiate into the "heavens" forever. You may not be familiar with emf or wave propagation. I am of course.

The program Hawaii 50 was last aired in the 1970's. Those programs with Jack Lord as Steve Magarret are still "alive" as far as a viewer would be concerned. This situation, sets up a "eternal life" which the actor Jack Lord cannot escape from.

Much like Jack Lord is trapped in a perpetual rerun in the cosmos, so is the plight of Jesus. Each time he is mentioned or prayed about, energy travels much like a radio or microwave does. This is proven beyond all doubt.

The end result is to continue to torment Jesus, to fail to stop is to constantly pierce Jesus side with a roman spear.

If you love Jesus, let him rest in peace...it time for his nap.

Bolding is my doing.

Not everyone has the same beliefs about Jesus(as)

I believe he is one of the greatest of Prophets(PBUT) he was lifted up to heaven without dieing, was not crucified and did not die on the cross. He will return to Earth and complete his life.

Jack Lord always looked like it was time for HIS nap.

Got anything else besides your dream, some gods I couldn't relate to while reading the Iliad in junior high school (just for the record I also couldn't relate to Jay Gatsby since no one I knew lived in a place with the word "egg" in its name and had problems with being filthy rich) and a reference to a guy who had the scariest hair on TV?
