To simply ask for something for the 'wrong' reasons (like asking that your obnoxious neighbor get hit by a bus) is kind of like abusing the prayer system and god doesn't roll that way. So just make sure that whatever you ask for is in keeping with what god wants.
Which is to say, you should pray for god to do what god already wants to do. So that he'll, you know... do it.
Obviously these Christians haven't read their bible.
He turned around, looked at them and called down a curse on them in the name of the LORD. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the boys.
