Well, if that's true then you failed again. Removing the member ID does not shorten the post at all if you leave the quote bubble. Makes you look even dumber.
Prayer is quite often stupid and selfish. Just one example: the local high school football coach recently won a very close game against an important rival. Of course the story in the local paper had him praising god and admitting to praying on the sideline late in the game for a turnover or some other big play. Of all the things in the universe, praying for a high school football team to win a game is the dumbest concept of religion. I could accept praying that his players don't get hurt or that they learn lessons of good competition, leadership or camaraderie, but not winning the game. That's a selfish thing to pray for.
And btw, he probably didn't squint his eyes and hold hands while praying. No one knew he was praying.
Lucky no-one was praying for the other side from the other sideline, otherwise it would have cancelled his prayer out.
