My favorite: Prayer is like masturbation. Feels good but does not do much for the person you are thinking of.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!

some real world experiments spring to mind . . .
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I stay off Facebook and social media for a few days after a big tragedy (which is every few months it seems). Clicking "share" on a "pray for x" meme doesn't do a darn bit of good.

Or how about people who type out long screeds on social media about whatever side they're on but, for some reason, they can't get their fingers to email or call their Congressional representative or they can't get their ass to the polls to vote.

The only reason I am on facebook is for messenger. Just an option for one on one communication.
