pray: address a solemn request or expression of thanks to a deity
In other words, praying is talking to a magical master of the entire universe, as if the thing was real, and as if it was interested in the moron, and as if it had the magical powers to listen to the moron.
Did these idiots for Jeebus ever learn how to think? I don't think so. Thinking makes morons cry.

An obvious fact of reality: Praying is talking to yourself. It's a mental illness. Most Americans are insane, not to mention gullible, cowardly, and just plain fucking stupid.

Catholic fucktards like to communicate with dead saints.
What is a saint?
Google: The Catholic church calls them saints. The process by which someone becomes a saint is called canonization. ... According to the church, the pope does not make someone a saint -- the designation of sainthood only recognizes what God has already done.
This blog has a post about the saint bullshit at "The Catholic Church is a business. They sell bullshit."

Study Shows Even Non-Religious Americans Are Turning to Prayer as a Result of COVID-19
A new poll from Pew Research Center reveals that the COVID-19 outbreak is changing Americans' religious habits, drawing more people to the power of prayer.
More than half of all US adults have prayed for the coronavirus to end, including people who say they rarely pray and those who don't belong to a religion.
Americans who are feeling the impact from COVID-19 have revealed that their religious practices have changed as a result of the pandemic.
The poll shows that 55 percent of people overall in the US are praying for God to end the outbreak. That number includes 86 percent of the Americans who already pray daily, along with 15 percent of the people who rarely pray but have now started praying because of the coronavirus.

A found some interesting Idiot America stuff in the book Faith Versus Fact - Why Science and Religion Are Incompatible by Jerry A. Coyne.
Here it is:
It's surprising how often Americans pray, and how much confidence they have that it works. 88% of Americans pray to God, 76% say prayer is an important part of their lives, and 83% believe that there is a God who answers prayers. And those prayers aren't just meditative exercisers. More than 50% of Christians, Jews, and Muslims pray for their health and safety, good relationships with others, and help with mental or physical illnesses.
