//warning, Chi rant 8'DHOLY SHIT. LOOK. IT'S AN OPINION. AND A RELIGIOUS ONE AT THAT. ABANDON ALL LOGIC!11!!!1
Okay, so on a more serious note:
Due to the fact that I've seen so many anti-prayer stamps, I've decided to make this one for those who are for it.
I do believe prayer works, because it's worked for me and I've seen it work for others. Through my experiences, I have come to the conclusion that praying /can work/. And before people go batshit, please understand that I happen to have an opinion /just like you/! No way! Does my differing opinion from yours make me a dumbass? Hmmm, I guess that would depend on how strong your feelings are for those who see things differently from you c:
On a more detailed note since I realize people are going to want to stray from the specific topic of this stamp (the opinion that prayer works)-- I'll leave these bullets here:
I pray, but I also do take action if it is within my abilities. I am in no way saying we should just pray and take no other action. Contrary to apparent popular belief, there /are/ a lot of people that, while they don't believe in prayer, actually appreciate the thought that someone cares enough to do something that they believe may help. I have been general on purpose in specifying what prayer to whom I am referring to. While I am a Christian and pray to God who I believe in, this stamp can also apply to - and is not restricted from - those who pray to something/someone else. I am not bashing those who don't believe prayer works. Honestly, what a silly thing to bash someone for! Lastly, if you're going to comment, please be mature or leave something funny.
And for goodness' sake, don't be an ass and attack people who are commenting on here. That's just plain rude. And if you want a definition of "attack", sucks for you. Find a dictionary. Or common sense. Either - or both! - are a good idea.
TL;DR - Read it, ya lazy derp :V

Personally I don't think it works, but when people say "they pray for me" then I just smile and know they're just trying to be good to me.

I believe prayer only works as a placebo, or possibly confirmation bias. You remember when the prayer precedes a good result, but not when it precedes a bad one. And of the good ones, the good result is attributed to prayer instead of the myriad of other factors. I haven't been hit by a car yet. Not because my mom prayed that I don't get hit, but because I look both ways before I cross, and don't argue with cars.
In short, I believe prayer only makes people feel better, nothing more.

Interesting viewpoint

I believe in action rather than prayer. I also think prayer is just hoping and wishing to put it simply. /endopinion

NUUU CANNOT GIVE LOGICAL RESPONSE TO RELIGIOUS OPINION.
*insert coin*
While I can't certainly agree with you on this, I can't deny that it has worked in some occasions, and as a personal belief, it's a person's own choice to decide something like this.

Even though I honestly don't think Prayer works, it's good to see someone isn't so terrified of other people's opinions to say anything about the arguments for Prayer.

I LOVE IT 
"I pray, but I also do take action if it is within my abilities. "
THANK YOU, alot of people get onto me about prayer like praying is my way of avoiding taking action, being lazy and whatnot.

I agree. My nana has prayed a few times before, and good things have happened to us. Like for the Earthquake disaster's in Japan, Haiti, Turkey, and then Indoneisa (I think it happened in Indonesia) people said 'Praying doesn't do a damn thing, you have to help them!' ...Praying shows we CARE. I prayed because I CARED for the countries, yes giving can really help them; but some people just can't afford to send them money or things like that like me and my family for example.

EXACTLY.
I mean, I can understand the frustration from those who don't believe it works. It's understandable from their point of view. HOWEVER, from OURS, it's different. For those of us who are sincere and truly mean well, we /are/ trying to do something - something we believe will work too if we are unable to take other action.

Indeed! I know not everyone has to follow the Christian belief's, and I respect that
