Christopher Hitchens on Prayer

I have a love-hate relationship with Hitchens due to his incredible raconteur philosopher-like qualities marred by his betrayal of Blumenthal. I have recently come to the realization that Hitchen’s side of that story is completely understandable, and in the least fits his personality perfectly… thus I have nothing to add to this:

Have you ever prayed in your life?
I probably once did pray for an erection, but not addressed to anyone in particular. Nor completely addressed to my cock. You’re too polite to ask if the prayer was answered.

Was it?
No. There was an answer, but I don’t think it was the result of the prayer. After all, if one was not a mammal, and could get erections on demand, there’d be no need for prayer in the first place.
