This article misled in its title and the very first sentence, and everyone in this thread ran with it.
This story was about what a group did, not an individual.
“We actually went outside and started commanding the winds, because God had given us authority over the winds, the airways,” Lowe said. “And we just began to command this storm not to hit our area. We spoke to the storm and said, ‘Go to unpopulated places.’ It did exactly what we said to do, because God gave us the authority to do that.”
Not a ME or I in there....which brings up your narcissist bit...
I appreciate your signing in as your alter to chime in so I'll humor you.
Quote:Even if this woman did claim to perform this "miracle" alone, it does not deem her a narcissist, nor did her actions reveal "extreme levels" of narcissism. Every Christian is taught that they have a special relationship with god ,that god answers all prayer. This does not make them narcissists.
Of course not. Claiming to have the ear of the only god that ever existed and he does as you ask is the very definition of humble.
Quote:Drink the Koolaid Jim Jones and David Koresh displayed extreme levels of narcissism. That looney Applewhite, leader of the Heavens Gate cult was an extreme narcissist.
This woman simply believed prayer saved their lives.
I believe Cthulhu stopped a 9.8 earthquake from decimating the California coast last week because I stabbed a goat in the head. Same amount of validity.
Quote:I could not call a soldier who was praying while trapped in a foxohole a narcissist because he believed prayer saved his life either.
I wouldn't either, people who are terrified do a lot of things they wouldn't otherwise do. That must be why so many people troll hospices trying to convert people on death's door.
Quote:This is a non story. Just another great opporunity to bash god lovers.
God lover, either a hair band from the 80's or a really bad porn.
