God might regret inventing the internet
The Guardian reports:
"[A] web site named Information Age Prayer offers to have your prayers said for you by the voice synthesis on their computers for the low low price of $6.00 a month. Paypal is accepted."

Check it out here:
www.informationageprayer.com

I especially liked this in the FAQ:

"If your children don't pray anymore sign them up for one of the many daily prayers available for each religion (click categories at the left). You may also want to have a prayer said for them directly. The prayer for children is the cheapest Information Age Prayer service at only $1.99 a Month. Pray for a child here."



By fuck I wish I had thought of this first.

Isn't that the sin of simony?
Y'know, accepting money for paying for acts of spiritual authority?

I have no fucking idea, but your statement sounds impressive and therefore plausible.

This is little different from
remote Reiki. Whereby for a moderate fee someone will wave their hands about and channel your chi better for you - or whatever it is they do. Apparently it is also available (remotely) for your pets and when they get better it proves that it isn't placebo ... so there!

I do hope that I haven't offended any B3tans who believe in this new age nonsense. Me? I'm a Bright and proud of it.
