Let's pray

I'm an atheist, but anytime there us a crisis I say a prayer. Why? For many reasons. 1. It can't hurt. 2. There are great people vastly smarter than me who believe in God. 3. A friend once said to me that faith is a sixth sense, and if you don't have it you just have to believe in it. 4. There is power in shared hopes and wishes. 5. It's not much, but it's something I can do right now to help defeat Trump. 6. Trump is the Satan of American politics, so prayer is a reasonable response. 7. God help us. So, I don't care what you believe or if you believe, but I really do think we should all pray. The worst that will happen is that it won't help or hurt.
