Is, "I'll pray for you" insulting?

Hey, I LOVE dandelions! Few things prettier than a meadow in spring, with that different, tender green of spring, dotted with yellow dandelions. The first dandelions always put a big smile on my face.

Ditto that but there aren't many here in my part of FL. I,used it as my example because many people don't like them & it's the most common weed that a child would pick for his friends.

I'm not even sure I'm capable of being insulted anymore. I don't even give a shit about my own opinions, why would I give a fuck about yours?

Will you demand he gets on his knees to pray for your dick?

I know, I was just kidding. I mean, I do love them (and we get heaps of them, yay! But weed is such an ugly word, isn't it? I actually wrote a tale in Portuguese about a river that wanted to go give its waters to the desert, but kinda kept giving sharing with those in need it met on its way, and one of them was a field flower, even plainer than a dandelion, the one that people would trample to avoid stepping on a real flower )

With such beautiful thoughts this must be the great dandelion derailment.

Dandelion fritters. Nuff said.

You can also make nice whistles out of their stems. And they curl up so funny when you put them in water.

This has got to be my favorite thread derail ever

i figure when a theist is praying for you its more about him than it is about you..

I say yes, If you know I am not a christian, then why would you even tell me you would pray. If your gonna pray then do it, but dont tell me. and dont say I need jesus either. Happy Holidays!!
