[QUOTE="The Cadet, post: 69408410, member: 261708"] None. But it just bothers me when somehow praying is held up as some grand act or gesture. It's not. It's the easiest thing in the world to do, by any objective criteria does not have any measurable effect. You know what this boy did? The full extent of his actions? He made himself look good and scored easy brownie points. Which, by the way, is explicitly forbidden in the bible. It's in Matthew 6: But hey, it's not like this is a real problem. It's not like our politicians notice that this is an easy way to glorify [I]oneself[/I] and offer prayers instead of meaningful steps toward a solution. Oh... Wait... [/QUOTE]
