If I heard someone say "...and dear Lord, please watch over Zakk Wylde because of his (more than likely self induced) medical problem...", I'd punch him in the nuts. Even if it were my own mom that said it.

if your mother has nuts, you might want to say a prayer for her while you're at it.

That's alright, for those that don't pray they can just wish him luck.

Does Zakk HAVE to look like a complete ass on every picture? You'd think a man in his early fourties would have grown out of the middle-finger showing tough-guy bullsh!t attitude, but no.


And I completely agree with spec, especially because Zakk is an ass of a person. If I prayed, I would pray for all the good people who get diseases like cancer for no apparent reason - Not for drunken bastards who pay their dues.

I don't believe one can self-induce a blood clot, let alone several.

But, I do see the point about everyone suddenly "praying" for someone famous. There are millions of people in bad health who are not famous...theoretically, you'd be praying for them already if you cared that much. This "OH NO, EVERYONE STOP AND PRAY FOR SOMEBODY FAMOUS" thing is kinda self-serving. Did you not care about people w/ blood clots in their lungs before Zakk had them? Or do you want to feel like you're being a concerned, selfless Christian by praying for someone else and drawing attention to it?

Precisely. I'm not a religious person, but I'll certainly wish him luck for a speedy recovery.

Tell that to Lars!
Zakk is just being Zakk. You don't think the Metallica guys cuss or flip off the camera?

It's not a conspiracy theory Shawn. I don't know about anyone else with this condition and like i said i didn't wake up and start a "save ferris" type post just because... And i wasn't inspired because of the MJ thing either.

I didn't say there was any conspiracy. I was just asking "Why Zakk? Why not the millions of other people on the planet with the same condition who were already sick?" That's all...

nice upskirt shot

That pic HAD to be a HIPAA violation...

Let me fix this thread for all those that have a problem with it.

Let's say a prayer or wish luck to Zakk and everyone else in the world that have blood clots in their lungs. While we're at it let's give a blanket prayer for all people with health problems around the world.

I hope that covers everything.

I pray that he feels better soon. He's an amazing guitar player.

I cannot beleive that this thread turned into a debate on who's worthy of our prayers!!! Are we really that bored, that we need to discuss such a matter? Who said we can't pray for anyone or everyone? Man, this is RETARDED!

That said, I thought alcohol made the blood thinner........ ;p

Not at all...read it again.

In my opinion, everyone is worthy of prayers. I think TZone brought it up because Zakk is someone we all "know" and have in common; not that he is anymore important b/c he is a rock star. Peace.
