I'm guessing you mean "prayer" as in directly asking god for something?
Anyway, I’d like to know how you believers pray?
Palms up and eyes down or up either or.
Where do you pray? How often do you pray?
Where? Where ever it's possible to do so. How often? Not as much as I use to but when I'm down and stressed I'll usually do so.
And what the hell is up with the “holier-than-thou speech” used in prayers?
Not sure about that one. Maybe it's because people feel they need to sound more sophisticated when speaking to god? I haven't heard any muslims doing this as most are do it in Arabic and I can't understand much of what they are saying. Those who say it in English don't sound as such from what I've heard.
Anybody? Thoughts? What is the usefulness of prayer?
Usefulness? It's a reminder that we humans need god and as such are required to ask for such givings and blessings.
