Prayer

To do nothing and still think you're helping.

Me: Man, I really need to pass this test tomorrow. Can you help me out?
Religious moron: Sure, I'll pray for you.
Me: Why not just help me study? That would actually help.
Religious moron: I'm positive that the grace of God will help you pass the test.
Me: I think God is too busy with everything else in the universe to help me pass a test.
Religious moron: I'll give him a prayer anyway
Me: Why do I hang with you?

prayer

(n). Best known placebo known to mankind.

Little Billy was dying of cancer, so he prayed that God and Jesus would let him live. He died two months later possessing strong, but ultimately useless, hope. Not surprisingly, his prayer was in vain.
