I mean, if praying brings someone emotional peace, is therapeutic to them, and helps them get through tough times, why do some of you seem so irritated by them praying?
The only problems I have with praying are:
1) When people pray instead of taking positive action themselves. People have died over this sort of shit; and
2) When someone I don't know from a can of paint decides that he's going to publicly, pray, right then and there, for me (given my apparent disability) -- or worse yet, tries to insist on my joining in.
