Bad people?  No.  A bit misguided?  Yes.  Nothing fails like prayer.

If prayer makes a person feel better, why do you care?  Chances are pretty good that the people who rely on prayer to make everything better would most likely be the same ones who do nothing and wait on someone else to fix the problems if they weren't praying.  So it's not hurting you...and it's not hurting them.  Let them pray.
Looks like I've come full circle.

Yeah. It's like wearing lucky socks. Or baptizing infants.

Might not help, but it certainly can't hurt.

Oh c'mon, there's always some pompous windbag around. And if it should happen that they are all silent for a change, I'll just wear my lucky socks.

Well if he's going to do what he wants anyway, what's the point in praying in the first place?
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.
