5. I feel so weird, I've been praying a rosary...
And I do that only in very rare cicrumstances. Mostly, I think it's just a way of saying "I'm so devoted to this cause that I'm gonna say this rosary" mor than I expect God to intervene because I said it.

32. I am a non-religious agnostic...
and the only time I have prayed before was last Thursday, before the last debate. It sure worked, so I will pray tonight, no doubt about that, but as an agnostic, I never know who to pray to. So I submit this query to you, the members of DU. Taking all bids! Who should I pray to? :-)

34. Pray to all those known and unknown, remembered and forgotten
present and absent, in the names of all the helpers of humankind.

Just a suggestion. :-) (It's a Unitarian Universalist thing.)

36. uh, no
if god existed, he would be perfect, and whatever happened would be 'god's will' and praying wouldn't do shit

since god is a fictional character in an ancient fable, praying still wouldn't do shit

I prefer more constructive support for the candidate to a bunch of superstitious hocus pocus

get on the phones, write letters, support the candidate in REALITY, not fantasy

38. Do as you wish, but tolerance is not only for the Christian Right.
You don't believe in God, I and others do.

If you don't want to pray, don't ... send positive thoughts instead.

Peace

50. My girlfriends prayers always get the effects they are going for
She stopped praying years ago,but started doing Hail Mary's for Kerry the night before the last debates. and theresults were there. I am on board with continual rosaries for Kerry every day
