What do I think prayer is?
I voted other. There's several reasons people use prayer.
1 - to talk to their god
2 - to provide some sort of comfort to either themselves or others
3 - to provide a false sense of security with one's religion. ie: If I'm good and I pray to god, he will answer my prayers.
4 - (My favorite reason) To make religious people feel better about themselves for "doing something" in a horrible situation. ie: rather than give money to this homeless man, I'm gonna pray for him.
In summary:
Prayer does not do shit.
