lol this guy is ridiculous. But playing the parody:
"I can just imagine them, standing outside their window, saying oh mighty God, thou art so great to notice a peon's personal prayers whilst magically ignorathing the entire continent of Africa..."

Talie: actually the Force stems from the Buddhist/Hindu perceptions of God more as a universal "field."

But a Jedi doesn't pray to the force. They simply allow the force to flow through them, indicating it is more akin to the concept of the Holy Spirit, or the Chinese concept of Chi energy.
And now to play the parody with you:
Our Yoda, who art in Council,
Hallowed by thy Gimer Stick,
With the Force be as one,
Thy lessons be done on Coruscant
As they are on Dagobah.
Give us this day our dyslexic phrase,
Forgive us trying and not doing,
As we forgive those who try and don't do around us,
And lead us not to the dark side,
But deliver us from the Sith:
For thine is the Peace,
the Happiness and Tranquility,
For as long as the Force shall be.
I know, not great, but I tried.

Speaking as a generic Theist, I pray to "To Whom It May Concern". If it's God truly omnipotent, He should have no problem answering prayers, regardless of where you send them.
If I called God Irving, he should still be able to get the message in his inbox.

I'm a Christian, and I think the Force is actually a very good metaphor for God.

I have heard more than one African say that God is working in a mighty way in Africa. But what do they know anyway...... right?
I know, I was listening to a former child soldier speak. She is the one who said God is doing great things in africa. She wrote a book. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.gsp?product_id=5480415
