I need some help for nephew Ryan. Ryan is a 15 and has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Hodgkin's. The cancer has spread from the lymphoid to his lungs, spleen, intestine and bone.

Please say a prayer Ryan in hopes that he will make a full recovery.

Thank you,
Good Luck and God Bless
Brian

I will add him to my prayer list.

Although I don't pray, my heart goes out to him - he will be in my thoughts.

Ryan update:
Ryan did so well with his first chemo treatment that they are bumping up his schedule so that he can get his next treatment a week early and there is also a decrease on one of the tumors in his neck.

Thanks to all who have prayed or have sent kind thoughts.
God Bless and Good Luck

Wow, you really are a first class creep. Jeez!

really? cause i thought i made a lot of sense there

Whether or not you believe in a higher power, do you think it was appropriate to post that type of response in a thread where someone was clearly asking for support and sympathy?

What a ******.

(The post quoted here has been deleted)




Ban this guy already, please. Please, please, please. I have never asked for that in my whole tenure here, and this guy deserves it. Then, go to his house and steal all his toys, and give them to other needy kids. And take his pets, they deserve a good home. Then, sympathize with his parents and give them a vacation, or a gift card to Olive Garden. Something- just be rid of this sorry excuse for good.

+1

nikki calls me a creep and an ***** but IM the one who should be banned because i made some sense and offered a different point of view.


whatever u say guys

hardkorbeatz are you really st8 outta moscow because I'm Russian.

С вашими словами Вы доказали всем нам, что Вы - задница!


I will post a Ryan update soon.

Thanks to all who have prayed or sent kind thoughts.
Good Luck and God Bless

pray all u want it wont do shyt


except make u look dumb

Agreed.

I mean, there is a time for flaming, and there is a time for not being a complete *******, and apparently hardcorbeatz lacks the ability to determine this.

To the OP, I hope Ryan gets better and I hope you don't judge the entire atheist community here just on the basis of this jerk, as there really are some thoughtful and decent people in said community.

im not part of your retarded community stop assuming things fool

...so, you're saying you're not an atheist? Do you even read what people say or do you have prewritten the stupidest things that you can say and randomly pull them out of a hat when there's an opening.

hardkorbeatz... this is an open forum that welcomes a variety of points of view. However, I recomend that on a thread asking for support instead of debate, either lend support or refrain from posting.

All others... there is an ignore feature and this may be a case where it will come in handy. PM me if you need assistance with the feature.

Thanks!

Hardkorbeatz - it is totally fine to state your point of view, as long as it is done in a respectable way. However when a person asks others to help, as in praying for someone and you do not believe in prayer, please just ignore their request. That is not the time to flame them because you do not agree with them.

In answer to your question, God does not "give people cancer or other bad things". It is never wrong to pray and ask God for health for yourself or another person. And yes, sometimes God does change His mind. In Genesis He was going to distroy the Children of Israel because of their disobedience and Moses prayed and ask God to spare them. In answer to Moses' prayer, God did spare them.

please see new thread

god would have known that he would since he knows all, so why would he bother with it in the first place...

do you think this stuff through at all?




if you use the cranium containing ur brain you will eventually arrive at how I can claim to be a non-believer and a non-atheist at the same time.




























no im not agnostic, try again

hardkorbeatz: you have added nothing to the forums as a whole, and now you've decided to go a step further and completely detract for the forums. you are a worthless dungfeaster, who i hope gets banned. take your commie "the weak should be killed off, so only the strong can remain" BS back to mother russia, so that we can be spared the temptation of beating your head in with a lead pipe.

OP: i will be praying (looks hypocritical after my response to douchebag borscht up there, but oh well)

I really don't care what sort of belief or non belief or combination of beliefs or whatever weird use of semantics to describe beliefs you claim to have. Frankly, I just wanted an opportunity to call you stupid.

the only thing u can beat up is your wiener


and dont call me a commie u fkin gook

Quoted so it can't be edited.

edit out of respect of this thread, not out of respect of hardkorbeatz.

I just translated this on babelfish, nh.

ha. you're ignorant and will probably die alone and miserable.

ha ha.

so funny- all i do is say something against your religion and all u dumb sheep start hating. not 1 "dude, whatever u dont believe in god thats fine hopefully one day u will" response. all 100% die rot in hell responses. so funny. did the bible teach u guys to act like that. u people suck as christians

I never said die, rot in hell- just that you should be banned, and you should. You want love? You want me to hope you believe in God one day? Strange way of going about it- that's like me walking up to a potential girlfriend and punching her in the face and then saying, " Now, how about a date? "

Got to 2+2, they speak retard there.( and by retard I mean they can do anything.)

actually, you personally insulted several people on this forum, including myself by using racial slurs in a completely derogatory and offensive manner. i dont post often (ok, ever) in here, but i was referred to it by another poster. i know my response wasn't all that christian, but like i said, i don't post here ever, and i was pretty offended.



but hey dude, whatever, you're a racist thats fine hopefully one day you wont be.

so you pretty much admit that you are an attention whore?

ok, i retract all previous statements.












there IS someone worse than FWP.

Ryan update: Ryan is doing very well and the Dr. said that the Pet scan looked good – he has two more chemo treatments and should be done with his treatment the end of July. If it weren’t for the hair loss you wouldn’t even know that he was sick. The Dr had said that he can no longer feel the tumors in his neck. But the Doc didn’t go into much detail about what the Pet scan showed except that it looked good. I am taking that as the tumors have either shrunk or they are gone – he will have another Pet scan once the chemo is done – but the Dr. said only a couple more and that will be it. I’m sure he will have to have blood work done every so often to make sure nothing is coming back.

Well he will still miss playing baseball on the varsity team but at least he can get back to playing drums in his punk band.

Thanks to all who have helped with prayers, kind thoughts & hats it is very much appreciated and I wish you all the best of luck.

Good Luck & God Bless

now that's certainly good news.

keep us updated. let us know what the final scans look like.

That's great news about Ryan!

Please keep us updated from time to time on his activities
