If you are an atheist, are you put off if others offer to pray for you or offer to pray for you? If so, why? If not, why not?
Personally nowadays, I don't want others to pray for me. That would mean I don't trust the Universe/God etc. to take good care of me. Because I believe God helps those that help themselves. And in my experience God helps me when I can't help myself.
But, because I have been miraculously healed so many times, I kind of don't mind if they pray for me, because I know prayers can work miracles, so I would not discourage them to pray. But if they belittle my faith and my Master, then I will tell them that I rather have them cultivate some respect first.
In the same line of thinking I would not pray for an atheist, unless he specifically asks me to do so, then I might consider praying for him
