the only times i heard protestsntas praying

they were dictating longwinded letters to God before audience (family, friends, strangers, passerby)

or they were reciting psalms, usually the Lord is my shepherd which i guess must be the only psalm in the protestahydgat Bible

For a while before I found Catholicism, I went to a "Word Faith" evangelical church. They do in fact dictate to God and actually teach that if they demand something "in Faith", God HAS to obey them! Also you know God truly loves you when you can afford a Lexus. And if you are sick or poor or suffering, you just don't have enough faith to force God to give you health, money and happiness.

This reminds me of a time when I'd been sitting out on the front porch of the apt. bldg. I'd lived at one hot summer eve. A van pulled up about to let out one of the residents and she (the driver) invited me over to talk. They wanted to pull me into being "saved" and "Jesus as my personal Savior" and all the rest. She asked me to pray with them. I respectfully stood by watching as they lowered their heads and she began to babble like nuts about God, Our Father 10 consecutive times....when all of a sudden her cell phone rang...and she INSTANTLY shut off the prayer stuff to answer the phone. The call was her 'babble friend' and it sounded like she could have gone on forever about "how bad the show was" and 'no, we didn't stop for a drink' and just stupid stuff. The poor guy she was supposed to letting out just sat back rolling his eyes and yawning...like "get me out of here already"...

On October 23, 2012, the good Bishop was cast out of the SSPX, where he had labored tirelessly for 36 years.
His continued membership in the SSPX would have made a premature union with Rome more difficult.
