How about: I will continue to pray for people in need as well as for people who have stopped praying, don't pray at all and for those who are confused about praying.

I don't normally vote in on-line polls, but I made an exception this time.

A study on the therapeutic power of prayer has found that it provided no benefit to the recovery of patients undergoing bypass surgery. Do the results of the study affect your view of prayer?

64.4%
No. I will continue to pray for those in need. (1931 responses)

2.3%
Yes. If it doesn't work and could even be detrimental, why do it? (68 responses)

25.0%
I do not pray in the first place. (751 responses)

8.3%
I don't have an answer. (250 responses)

3000 total responses

 

Those 68 people scare me.

I've opted not to FReep this poll, and instead to pray for whomever thought this was a matter of 'opinion'. They're obviously 'ill', and in need of some divine help.

So where's the "leave comment" field in the poll?

Why wasn't "I'm your subscriber; have no brain" a choice?
