It's your opinion that prayers can't help, and you are entitled to
your opinion, but is it also your opinion that prayers can hurt?
If not then why bother and belittle those that are offering prayer? It
seems that Robert can't die fast enough for some here, and him hanging
on has become grist for the humor mill. I'm sure you have real-life
interaction with people much worse than anyone on this newsgroup, but
I doubt you wish death on them.
Why does it bother you that prayer brings comfort to some? Would you
rather them feel discomfort? For what reason other than to be a
contrary clown?
