A religious friend summed up prayer in the following way: it is a way of finding inner peace about something when you lack it. In other words, you cannot change anyone's situation through prayer; you can only change how you feel about their situation.
I think it's an interesting way to look at it, but it's never stopped me from hoping for a miracle.

Why do priests fuck kids?
My father is an M.D. for a large pharmacuetical research company. When I spoke to him over thanksgiving he told me they are conducting a study on people with illness and what effect that praying has over their health. Basically the groups are split into two. One group that is religious and prays, one that unkowingly has others praying for their ongoing health and a non praying group. He said that even though they are in the mid-stages of the study their is already a marked difference in certain indicators of health among the groups that pray or have prayers directed towards them.
This study is not being sposored by a religious group or affiliated with one in any way. Apparently many doctors have known that prayer can have profound effects on patients health and well being so they are looking into it. I found it interesting when he told me this.
Sorry I can't give more specifics about the study, when I see him over christmas break I'll ask him more.

Well unfortunately it is because they can.
The catholic church has shown everyone that they are more interested in protecting their own, no matter how corrupt, than innocent children.
They need to seriously re-examine their policy towards celibacy if they are going to survive the next century.

It has been documented many times that prayer works to a degree. I like to try to explain things logically, I have this theory that our brains may have some unexplainable power.
Why can you tell what mood someone is in without looking at them, you can feel it? At least I can.
