Hell: I've got my ticket in hand

By now it's no secret that I watch way too much TLC...so I just thought I would throw this out there... it weirds me out how much the Dugger's say "I'll pray for you", or "I pray your *minor event/occurence* goes well". I was always under the impression that prayer was an important thing to these people, but they just toss it around so much it's lost all meaning. And you'd think they'd want to give Jesus/God a break now and then... do they really think he has time to give a shit about stupid little details for every person that prays about them? What does their use of prayer then say about them, if they're willing to just throw them out there with every other sentence? Are they actually praying? And do they put the same "effort" into praying for little things that they do for the larger things like ending rampant poverty and starvation, war and inequality?
