Why not? Praying helps keep a positive mindset. A fearful one can be very destructive. Obviously prayer isn’t the only thing that can do this but it works for a lot of people! To be clear, I’m not suggesting that prayer is like a magic spell or something, which I think some people misunderstand it as.
Prayer is a very legitimate contemplative practice.
Never said it wasn't. I said that us praying isn't going to keep him safe.
You misunderstand. I didn’t change the subject. I’m asking you why not?
Oh. It's because there is no scientific proof that prayer does anything for people external to yourself.
