This is an Inter-religious prayer thread. This is for all people for all religions to pray. Right now it is for the over 1,000 people dead from Hurricane Katrina and the 1,000 people who died because of the Baghdad stampede.




P.S. I am Catholic.

As much as I will pray for the victims of both incidents - I find it offensive that you open a prayer thread for all faiths to share! Do you not believe that God is the one and only god? Why would you ask people of other faiths to pray to their gods if you believe theirs don't exist?

The general consensus amongst modern monotheistic religions is that all worship the same God, but the conflict is because of the differing ways in which it is done. Thus there is no real contradiction here.
