There's also really no need to tell anyone you're going to pray for them. I suppose if you know they believe in it, you could. But it still seems to be aimed at making the person saying it feel better about themselves. I do understand the social pressure to say something, when presented with someone in a horrible situation.
I mean, if someone wants to go home and pray for me, of course I wouldn't object. But I really don't need to know about it. It's not a big deal though. I wouldn't think badly of someone for saying it or make a fuss. I understand it's meant to generally be a nice sentiment.
"I'm going to beg God to stop being such a cunt for five minutes."
"Cheers mate."
