[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an atheist, and I've asked for prayers a couple of times, for one of two reasons. 1) What I meant was "keep me in your thoughts, knowing that someone is wishing for my recovery makes me feel better," but because I know that particular audience, I translated it to "keep me in your prayers" because that was essentially the same thing, and I didn't want to get into a discussion on the difference between "keep me in your thoughts" and "keep me in your prayers" because I was dealing with a medical crisis; or 2) some people really wanted to do something for me, or seemed really upset. I didn't want the emotional burden of coming up with a list of tasks that I would feel comfortable asking of them, so I just said "keep me in your prayers" because that made them feel useful.[/quote] That’s a good atheist.
