If this starts working I might take up religion again. Gas prices are the common enemy of atheists and theists.

If prayer worked, it would be a business.

Nothing like taking a cheap shot at some else's sacred beliefs.

It is a business...

Unfortunately, I don't think this demonstrates its efficacy.

I prayed at the pump once, but not for gas. A woman with burn marks (self-mutilation) whose husband was arrested the night before asked me to pray for her. So, we prayed at the pump. I have no other explanation for having driven several miles out of the way to get gas at that location other than I was supposed to be there at that location at that moment. I don't know her circumstances, but she was a long way from home herself.
