Ok ... so here's a subtler question ...
... you'd wish somebody got better, but you wouldn't pray for it ... yep ?
I'm not making any points - I'm just suggesting that the same objective is served - it's just people go about it in different ways, prayers obviously centering around people asking for a higher power of some sort to exert its influence over the situation to make it come about ...
... technically I wonder whether the attempted casting of magic spells could be considered a form of praying ... you're (I guess) invoking external powers to do your bidding - perhaps it's just like HARDCORE praying ...
... it's a very interesting topic to discuss ...
... and can I just add that this is THE first site where people that engage in debates have managed to remain polite and friendly and civil the whole time ? I'm REALLY impressed by that - I can debate anything, but I cannot be @rsed wasting my time arguing with people, so I'm really happy that everybody seems to respect each other's views on these topics mile:.
Cheers all !
!?!?! Shadow !?!?!
