I am as neutral as they come as far as religion goes. Honestly, I just don't care about God and the rest; it's never been a big part of my life and I don't anticipate that it really will be.

That said, I don't see what the big deal is. Unless someone says that they're praying for you to convert to their brand of religious Kool-Aid, I think that you need to think about the underlying message. A believer telling me that they're praying for me because I'm ill or feeling bad or anything of the sort is a positive message in my book. If it's a conversion attempt, it's still a positive in some ways because they think that I'm worth saving.

In other words, I agree with pig in my own hamhanded, inarticulate way.
