Original: # Prayer : A passive-aggressive way of letting the Lord know that you think He's gotten a bit lazy. —Mrs. Betty Bowers _
A quip attributed to satirical character Mrs. Betty Bowers is circulating widely, describing prayer as "a passive-aggressive way of letting the Lord know that you think He's gotten a bit lazy." The joke, shared under atheism and faith tags, is drawing amused reactions and some pushback from religious users.
Why now: The sharp one-liner pokes fun at religious practice, prompting laughs and debate between believers and skeptics.
