I need prayers for special intentions.
That's my favorite.. The vague and ambiguous mystery prayers.
Sure let me pray for your secret intention.

I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen anything to make me believe there's one all-powerful force controlling everything. There's no mystical energy field that controls my destiny.

People pray for things like toys and cars and stuff.

Stay at home moms are the queen of these type posts
"Breyklyn has been crying all night. Prayers please!"

I laugh at people who ask for prayers for anything on Facebook. I laugh even harder when people reply with "prayers sent." 99% of those people just want to reaffirm their friendship and didn't even pray for them. So stupid

I think it’s ridiculous
Prayers don’t do shite

So prayers actually can do a lot even if you do not agree that a deity is actually answering them.

My parents are pretty religious so I keep my agnostic atheism to myself, but I do subscribe to your theory about prayer. So I do pray with them for the reasons you stated.
