I couldn’t agree more, but I wouldn’t stand in the open praying under the delusion that God will prevent me from being shot.

I have free will with his grace and that free will allows me to grab cover.

To: Eaker; Cicero

I see your point, Eaker ... although being an ornamental fluffy pink bunny (i.e., female) the fight-or-pray issue wouldn’t come up for me. A man will appear to protect me, while I stand about being appealing, or so I read on FR. (Or let’s get real ... Anoreth will protect me, if I need any help.)

However, my earlier post was specific to the situation involving the upcoming vote on open homosexuality in the Boy Scouts. I was wondering, in this situation, what sort of fighting was planned that would prevent one’s also fasting and praying, with allowances for the difficulty of (for example) praying and making a telephone call at the exact same time.

Fasting is ongoing, and so it doesn’t interfere with other actions.
