Being the subject of a prayer

Of course we know that prayer never "works", but the result requested in the prayer might happen naturally, and then the OP might be expected to thank Yahweh for "answering" the prayer.

So if he OP makes a show of requesting help from all kinds of supernatural sources, then maybe the Christians friends will be less likely to expect the OP to thank Yahweh for "answering" the prayer. Maybe the OP can thanks Yahweh, Thor, Lucifer, the lucky rabbit's foot, ... (Of course I know this wouldn't actually work - just making a silly suggestion.)

Realistically, maybe the OP will be so happy after a successful outcome that giving some acknowledgement to Christian friends and their God for imaginary assistance will seem trivial? Smile
