I was born and raised in Texas so I’ve seen it. Millions of people today are praying that Dorian turn away from land, and treating those people with mockery or condescension because they believe it could help is part of how the overly secularized Left has lost lots of voters.

I have been a Republican all my life. In 2016 I registered as a Democrat, so did my parents, my husband, my adult children, my siblings and a whole lot of my friends. We voted in 2018, and the last thing we will never do is vote @GOP. We also pray for everyone not just USA.

Well, we agree. Ridicule is a sure way to alienate people; people needed to win a larger argument in 2020. (This has nothing to do with my personal skepticism re prayer.)

True Christian prayer (I'm not conversant with other groups) asks for God's help to deal with our circumstances. Fake/flake Xians pray hurricanes away & prosperity pray. That's not how it works. That's not how any of it works.

“Overly secularized” said no rational person ever.

I don't care who prays or doesn't Marianne. I don't want it legislated. Women's healthcare, LGBT is being attacked by these prayers who think the US Constitution doesn't mean anything! Keep your religions out of my life. #TaxChurches

If prayers really prevented bad things from happening, we would have no catastrophes, no deaths, no problems. This kind of crazy talk is what got us Trump.

Believing In Prayer Is Great. I Pray Every Day. But We Are Tired of Having To Pray For Safety and Nothing Else Being Done. America Needs Gun Reform NOW. The Government Has To Start Working For WE THE PEOPLE and Stop Worrying about Lining Their Pockets. #GunReformNow

The rest of us understand actual science. No one mocks people for praying You can't deny that some of these same nutjobs were praying for Dorian to hit "gay" Florida. Spare us the religious crap. Religion of ANY flavor has NO place in government and the workings of ACTUAL science

If it’s necessary to beg and plead for a god to not devastate and kill humans and animals it really isn’t a god I care to talk to. 😖
