The blog below was posted in 2014 and reposted in 2015 when the same gentleman, Crusty, from the TimesDaily Religion Forum popped up again on Facebook, once again repeating his same worn out argument against Christians praying.
I shared on Facebook about a woman who took a photo of the staff in a Waffle House restaurant as they were praying before beginning their work shift. The workers gathered in a prayer circle behind the counter area and prayed.
My comment was: "OKAY TO PRAY IN PUBLIC? You betcha! And, like this lady, the image of praying co-workers makes my day! Enjoy! God bless, Bill"
And, my faithful follower from the Timesdaily Religion Forum, Crusty, posted:
No matter how many times over the years I have explained that passage to him - he keeps coming back with the same question. That is a perfect example of what I mean when I say they "Throw it against the wall to see if it sticks!" Over the years, and especially today, we have all seen Liberals, both religious and secular, and non-believers - who consistently use that tactic.
They will take a fact that has been proven wrong, or many times just make up a non-existing fact - and post it all over social media. Why do they do that? Simple. They know that most folks will not bother to fact-check their post and will just accept it as true. That is also one method the Liberal Socialist Left use to build their voter base - feed inane and untrue facts into minds that are void, which will just absorb whatever is presented to them.
So, let me present my blog from 2014 and 2015 where I repeatedly explained to my Forum Friend what I believe Jesus Christ meant in the Scripture passage found in Matthew 6:5-8:
What Did Jesus Mean - Regarding Prayer?

Bill, TV Preachers, and Tim Tebow love to ignore this passage: Matthew 6:5-15 ESV, “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. . . . "

What Did Jesus Mean - Regarding Prayer?

In a TimesDaily Religion Forum discussion I began several months ago titled "The Prolific Forum Poster!" - a Forum Friend and I somehow wandered into a dialogue on prayer and divorce. Because these are both very important issues, I want to discuss both. But to have some semblance of brevity I have split them into two separate discussions.
Regarding prayer, my Forum Friend asked me:
