It is not. There is no evidence to support that prayer actually accomplishes anything.

Ha Ha Ha. If you do have an ability to pray to cause an effect, then you are the greatest ass in the world to not pray to shift the Philippine typhoon away from those populated areas.
But of course you will hide back down in the can of "but prayer can only do gods will" excuse, which means that unless you can prove what is or isn't "god's will" you are just asking the wind to blow whichever the way the wind will blow. You are praying for nothing and getting it.

In the sense that it makes Christians feel like they did something useful without actually doing anything useful, I entirely agree.

Quote:TACLOBAN, Philippines (AP) — Hours after the storm hit the Philippines, the Rev. Amadero Alvero was on the streets, sprinkling holy water over the dead and praying for them. By late afternoon, the 44-year-priest had blessed about 50 corpses in the remains of this shattered city.
These assholes will live in cardboard boxes while the fucking church gets rebuilt!
You don't need anything to hate Christians!
Here's the real elephant in the room...and one day its your head they will look for and get!

Prayer, also known as meditation, has enormous health benefits.
(But I wouldn't expect an ignorant atheist to know that there is a medical link between stress and disease.)

Be careful you don't let your 'hate' get the best of ya. There's nitwits on both sides of the tracks--atheists and theists, alike. When oh when will we come together, rip off our labels, and just get busy helping each other? I think that prayer is fine if that is what you're into, but you also have to get busy...DOING. But, who's to say some aren't?

Not to derail the topic, but your sig at first is kind of annoying, but then I find myself giggling uncontrollably at it.
Sorry everyone, carry on.
