More and more I see these type of comments. Nothing wrong with prayer but what about the patriots putting in the time and effort? Are you suggesting someone prayed enough that the patriots are winning now? God finally intervened? But not for the Russian innocents today?
Actually, I think it's rather like Clarence and George. Prayer works. I have personal experience of it. That (my) kind of coincidences are rather like winning the lottery 3 times in a row. No reason to believe me, but I know and I don't knowingly lie and I am not inclined to believe fairy tales. I am here.
also, ALL IDEAS HAVE IDEAS. so it is both appropriate and beneficial to humble yourself before the supreme idea. call it what you will, but the name has been given.
prayer works

Is that thought somehow alien to you? That the power of prayer is not a real thing?
I didn't say that

The "Power of prayer" and the wordage/verbage is overrated and stained in term of social capital.
much better and more accurate would be the "power of belief"
That way, you don't get all religious :)
prayer is a powerful tool for managing belief.
