1. Prayer: It’s Almost Like Doing Something

[Curmudgeoness]

2. This is so true that it isn't funny.

How many times have I heard "I'll pray for you"......instead of what can I do for you, do you need something from the store, would it help if I sat with you tonight, or a million other things that would actually make that person DO something to help.

8. That's a good one. Thank you. n/t

5. "You kneel down and pray for me..."

"...and I'll stand up and think for both of us."

6. Pray in one hand and ^&*% in the other and see which one,

fills up the fastest?

7. I thank people for praying for me.

I had a seriously life threatening illness (2 of them actually) and went in the hospital on Thanksgiving night. Stayed 8 days in ICU. And this was 350 miles from home in another state. A lot of people have said they were praying for me, and I thanked them. I don't want to insult them, because they are saying they give a damn.

I'm not gonna argue with them even though I don't indulge in prayer.

I'm a Unitarian, the joke goes, we pray "To Whom it May Concern"
