If the world was coming to an end............What do you think preying would do for you?

If just 25% of the worlds religious folk preyed for the exact thing, why wouldn't the devestation be stopped????? But we all know that all the preying wouldn't stop it. Why do people put all their faith into something they can't touch or see? Why doesn't anything happen when people prey? It could be the worst thing ever, but still nothing.........Perhaps religion has something to do with control of impressionable minds...??? I went to church when I was very young, but today religion is not part of my life......Do I miss it.....?? No. Is that wrong? I do not think so. You?
