Obviously, that is, on the face of it, delusional behaviour. However, it does seem to provide many people with some kind of much-needed hope, even though it is false hope.
I personally know a lot of people who pray (I have a group email list runs over 60 names) and I am pretty sure not one of them fits your delusion. I think such delusion is more of a political opinion than a spiritual one.
So do you 60 'friends' not pray to a magic man? To whom then are they praying and more interestingly if not for magical interventions, why?
