A favorite atheist quote of mine is “get off your knees and do something! Praying isn’t going to help.” Pat Tillman said it before he was killed in Afghanistan. I also found this:

I don't get this pray for peace bullshit. According to their moronic beliefs, wasn't the same god, any god they believe in, the one who allowed the Putin invasion to happen? And now they are going to pray for peace to the same dude who let this happen????

You're applying logic. That's gonna make the whole thing look stupid.

@redbai yep, I forgot the religious brainwashed followers have no clue what logic or common sense mean.

I don't think thoughts and prayers are a part of this really, but after 4 days and getting nowhere Putin is putting his nuclear arsenal on standby. None of this looks good.

Wouldn’t it just be wonderful if we could pray away war!!!! We would have been done with that nasty business millennia ago!!!🙃

I remember when the TM movement used to do publicity stunts where they would claim to meditate for peace like it was going to end war, lol...

If there were a god around, this shit wouldn't be happening.

prayer = wishing in one hand and spitting in the other to see which hand gets full first.

Nothing fails like prayer.
People have been "praying for peace" for centuries, and it's never done a fucking thing to end any conflict.

How many are praying for peace....and how many are praying to fucking win !?!?

@twill @KKGator and how many are just praying for a chance to fuck?

But what about that one case where the shell hit the house but the family next door survived? Or if you looked at the maps, no invading troops went into some oddly specific place? Praise be unto him or her that spare-ith the wilted daisy in the field or some other pithy, old-English sounding non-sense.
