Not exactly clear on why prayer is in the Atheism section...

I guess because the few tenets of atheism are the antithesis
of the tenets of religion—prayer being one of those.

Yes, but we already know what atheists think of prayer. No one needs to expand on this. So its some Godists using the section for propaganda.

I have to keep saying this: I am not an atheist.

They pray for Aliens to save them from themselves in ruining this world. They worship their Celebrities like Holy Ones in religions.

And of course you have lived in the United States where you developed this deep understanding.

Who needs to - see enough here as the 51st State of the USA.

Also, the post of how People go to the Cinema's as if Temples to watch their American version of the Norse, Roman and Greek Gods via their Superhero's is actually taken from the late great Mythologist Joseph Campbell both via his interview series with Bill Moyes and one of his books (many works).
I suggest you give his works a read if you want to understand the 'big picture' - of which, I'm light years ahead of you Big Issue, so I wouldn't even try with me. Tongue

They must be resisted at every level.
