I have osteoarthritis, which especially affects my knees.

Also, I walk and hike in several different nearby parks near our home several early mornings a week.

Yet through history gays have always dominated religious life and churches.

Entrenched scriptural literalism is, in my opinion, completely out of touch with reality.

However one might pray - in any verbal way or completely without words - is unimportant to God. What matters is the heart's intent.

I have glaucoma, so use eye drops both morning and night.

I believe that God prays in us and through us, whether we are praying or not (and whether we believe in God or not). So, any prayer on my part is a conscious response to what God is already doing in my life.
