I saw nobody say anything like they were against prayer. I am a minister and
I have enough sense to know that the purpose of this list has nothing to do
with prayer.
Prayer may be a part of everyday life for those on this list, it might be
part of the process to find a hit with a Chapman family relative in some
manner, but what it has to do with a chain prayer? Zero.
If somebody posted something about God or Jesus to this list and it was of
the same nature it would be out of place as well. It doesn't mean somebody
is against Jesus if they remarked it wasn't the place.
If somebody discussed religion and its affect on the Chapmans in a
historical manner that would seem ok.
But trying to make the list into a prayer chain or a discussion of religion
or spirituality is almost silly.
I discuss religion with people all day long. I do not however do it in the
wrong manner. If I do it will take away from the subject at hand.
The subject at hand here is the Chapman Clan.
