Science is thinking. Prayer is wishful thinking. Guess which one works?

I agree. Kinda of like actions speak louder then words. Or walk the walk instead of talk the talk.

both are needed. and,by the way there is nothing in any holy book anywhere , that forbids you from praying while in the act of something.

If you can pray, then pray. If you can help then help. Whatever God has called you to do. Everyone has a talent to do help.

AGREE- BECAUSE ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THEN WORDS - I SAY I HELP YOU BUT WALK AWAY ,OR I JUST DO IT AND NOT SAY A THING!

Wrong! Lips that pray get hands that help from God.
