When I was a child I did, until I realized that God either doesn't exist or doesn't care.

I did when I was little too, but then I realized God doesn't exist, and that prayer would be pointless even if he did.

Honestly, the only times I prayed was when my mother or my grandmother made me... Even when I went to church as a kid, while everyone else would be praying, I'd just pretend and think about something else...

You were thinking of all the crafty ways you could escape the church MacGuyver style weren't you?

Well, I could have taken the hymn book, fold it up, merge it with the prayer book, sprinkle some holy water, mix it with the host to make some glue, and I probably could have done something with the candle wax.....

Well, you know, you don't have to do everything the way you were raised. Just because your parents told you prayer works doesn't mean it does. The idea is laughably absurd. Even if there is a God, do you think you can communicate new information to him or something? Do you think you can somehow change his perfect all-knowing mind by telling him your thoughts, which he's already familiar with because he's monitoring all your thoughts? By the way, how creepy must it be to actually believe there's somebody who knows what all your thoughts are all the time?

yes, used to more, but still do.

i stopped praying as much when i noticed it didnt make a difference how much i prayed, god didnt do anything. for the longest time i just simply passed it off as god didnt care, then i decided god didnt exist, because it would simply be unholy not to care about the situation down here, then after more research i went back to god not caring, which later turned to realizing god CANT do anything right now, and has to let things play out, so to speak, so as to either teach us a lesson, or someone/thing else.

Not everyone has to rebel.

I was raised with no one to rebel against. My parents split apart before I finished High School (though, this has nothing to do with the previous statement).

If it eases you, pray, God Damn it.

edit: Well, I rebelled against my teachers. But, I felt like I had them, already, nine or seven years before, as my Brother and Sister had them.
