I don't pray, I hate going to churches when friends/family invite me because everyone has their head done with their eyes closed, and instead of just doing what everyone else is doing, I look to see if anyone else is doing what I'm doing.
Of course I pray. I don't care how athiestic you claim to be, when you're playing Mario Kart online, with only a few seconds from the finish line and the blue-shell buzzer going off, you're going to ask Jesus, Allah AND Buddah to let you make it that last few feet ;).
I pray when I need answers, even if it comes from subconscious. It helps. I don't go anywhere, I don't follow any religion.
good point. in that case i prayed so hard yesterday i almost had a heart attack during the texans games. guess my prayers weren't strong enough :(Of course I pray.

Everyone should pray to God once in a while and thank him for blessing you with life on this beautiful earth Bucked20
Though Lee Van Cleef did not bless us with life (that was due to evolution, birth, etc.), I pray to Him every other week and thank Him for giving us a spectacular set of screen performances.

Given that Keanu is the One Immortal God and he doesn't like to be put on the spotlight for the creation of the universe, I doubt any of us should do that.
Then again, this is coming from a member of the Lee Van Cleef sect.
You better thank God for putting him on earth[QUOTE="Bucked20"]

But Keanu is a humble man and I don't want to trouble him.
Even people who don't think God's responsible for any of that? They should pray for even being able to think there is no God I agree they should be very happy/thankful for being alive, but why should they express that religiously if they aren't religious?[QUOTE="THE_DRUGGIE"]

Until you feel HIS touch upon YOUR soul, you can't possibly understand. Pray on this.
I'm in a state of constant meditative prayer, as I commune with HIM. (It always sounds better when you say, "HIM", like yah know 'em.)@Bucked20: Your ignorance of The One True Way is fathomless. You need to turn yourself over to HIM, and pray that you're not found WANTING.Frame_Dragger
you pray to the show How I Met Your Mother?

You clearly do not understand the proper Way Of The Cleef.
For Cleef came hither upon this ragged land, and gazed His piercing gaze upon the denizens of the world, without saying a word. Without pause, His mighty iron brought forth a fire, but did not burn those touched by it like a normal fire, but instead mended their inner turmoils with the heat of His love, for He was truly the Best In The West.
Amen.

You will say the words, in the tongue of the divine that is recorded in the bones of the earth: "a ma la ge zen ba dam gal nun ka aria su su na an da..." Saying this, you will know the feeling, become the feeling, and walk with HIM.I'm a muslim, so I do five daily traditional prayers wherein the Qur'an is recited and there are numerous bows and prostrations. I usually do numerous supplications as well; these can be made at any time (i.e. "Oh God, please help me pass this test!"). Prayer is very important to me, but there's definitely a such thing as going overboard. I don't spend my free time in a cave, with a robe on, chanting mantras for hours on end, for example.

I will never betray The Cleef for a silly experiment.

Maybe they can experiment with it see what happens I tried it once, but god told me to slaughter the fools about me, and that got messy in a hurry.

I personally have and... Nothing! Hardly surprising, though I'm sure someone will tell me you must believe for it to work, as if God's purposely holding out on me because I don't believe in him. You'd think he'd be more mature than to do that.
