Why is it that whenever something disasterous happens everyone jumps on the "ill pray for you" wagon? How many of those who utter this comment, of which to me would be insulting as hell, actually get on their knees and do this? Im betting not many. so if not many do it, why say it? It sounds false. like making a child say im sorry when you know damned good and well that they arent. whats the purpose? Saying it without meaning of a follow through is pointless. Besides, what does a prayer to a diety of one type or another have to do with anything? If the diety cared what people thought, wouldnt it have prevented the circumstance in the first place? Is it the same as people saying "i hope" when its logically and factually set to do the opposite of the hope?

I know this might rattle a few cages, spit in someone's soup, and generally piss someone off for daring questioning the sinerety of their statements, and infringing on whats more than likely a cultural comfort zone, but Hey i havent pissed anyone off in months. Im due.
