Why the hell can't I post something postive about prayer without (almost) all the atheists getting their panties in a wad?
I don't spend all my time trying to convert you. I don't expect that you'll change your minds over one little post I made, and I don't give you grief over your beliefs. Get over yourselves.

For me, its less about a belief in god, or prayer, then about critical thinking. CT is totally my soapbox and vocation; I am rabid about it. I believe it is the only way to make the world better. It's very difficult for me not to say something when I see non-critical thinking. Thus my (I hope, humorous) acknowledgement of what I wasn't going to say.
I was glad about the dogs, honestly, whatever made them better. I appreciated that people prayed for my beloved Mojo when he was sick, it was a nice thing to do for me.
But I do try and keep it under wraps, especially with people who don't care. Sometimes it escapes. My apologies. I'm a hopeless debator, I try to remember that not everyone likes to debate over everything they say. :)
