Prayering wont do anything to make the current situation better apart from settling a few consciences and for some strange reason make religious people feel better.
“It’s unconstitutional for government officials to be promoting religion; and besides, judging from the speed of some relief efforts, officials should be busy working instead of preaching.”

I have to agree, reason.....
Tho I am not an Athiest, I do agree god has nothing to do with this situation. It is up to the people to fix the problem.
Why go watch the Futurama episode where Bender becomes god for a short period of time..
Notice how everytime he did something to help out, people got screwed. Same thing here.
Point being is instead of praying that energy can be used for more useful things like actually helping out. Or giving food, Clothes, and anything else to the people down there, or even some of your time.

I don't get it. Is god not going to get off his ass and help someone unless another person asks him too? It's like he has to be persuaded.
