Very true. And like you said, I don't think it's extremely common for Christians to think all they need to do is pray, and nothing more. That's not really the general rule within Christianity, to just pray and not do anything else.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
