[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just out of curiosity, can the last three ("deep", "awesome" and "1000") tell me in a straighforward way, what you think of the idea that at least part of the value of prayer is the internal focus of thought on things of importance to the supplicant?[/quote] I am "awesome" and '1000" - not a sock puppet, just a jokester. As for prayer - if you call it meditation or self-talk, then I'm with you on it's value. It's the "supplicant" part that I don't accept. This means asking or begging someone and implies that a god is listening who may (or may not) answer the prayer. I understand that is a feature of religious prayer, but I think a person can get all the benefits of meditation without thinking of it as prayer that will be answered by a supernatural God.[/quote]
