"Asking", "pleading", "begging", and yes even "praying" spreads like wildfire among boomers. They are all knee-deep in trying to "pray" for the things they want in life. They write down "Things I must pray about". Most believe (kid you not) that when they pray hard for something they want it will "be answered" and I hear them all saying "God will provide". It started getting really bad since, well, a long time ago.
You have no idea what Christian prayer is. It is not a shopping list or a personal aggrandisement order form. And most boomers were never hippies or yuppies and most worked hard to give their children a better life...
