I don't pray. I do play little tricks on my mind sometimes though. When I was very young, I pretended that there was always a couple of evil guys having a conversation in my head, unaware that I could hear them and I would thwart their efforts to kill me every time. I used to avoid stepping on sidewalk cracks when I was a kid too. I also used to pretend I could kill people with laser beams from my eyes. There's all sorts of little mind games you can play with yourself. If I were to pretend I was praying and it was reaching some transcendent intelligence, I would probably just feel like an idiot. I think it's a good thing to allow one's self some freedom to play some mind games every once and a while. Taking that shit seriously is either delusional or schizophrenic though.
