If it gives people hope and strength in hard times then it's a good thing as far as I'm concerned, even if it doesn't do anything. Don't see that much wrong with it.

Agreed....for some it gives them solace and peace. Everyone deals with their issues in their own way. Their beliefs are exactly that, THEIRS and shouldn't concern anyone else. Calling people deranged for doing so is extremely offensive.

No it isn't it is the truth... Talking to an imaginary person is the first sign of mental illness and can quite comfortably be termed as deranged...

How you think think I am being offensive by stating the bleedin obvious is beyond me...!!!

Its an offensive post.

It is possible to get your point across with being insulting to numerous people in the process.

Nonsense. Offensive to people with mental health issues as well.

The second part of your post is a little offensive, hmmm. I'm not actively religious, don't attend church, but I do believe in a God, and have said informal prayers at certain times in my life.

Exactly this.
OK.... Perhaps using the word deranged is a little strong perhaps I should have said a bit confused or perturbed

@Nedusa I think your a breath of fresh air in the debate section and I like your Farscape avatar but I think you would be a quality poster if you tempered your tongue a little.

Thanks Kyle, yes I think I jumped into this a bit too quick and am digging a hole for myself here.

For what it's worth NO I don't think people are mentally deranged for praying. It was a bad choice of language.

I should have just said it's not something I would do but each to their own.

No offence intended....!!
