 I asked, in this situation, if we pray to God, even those of us who do not pray, are we using God as a broker for our prayers? And, are prayers 'religious' or are they just wishes for positive results?

 For me, I pray that I see God's will for me.   That's the way I was "taught" to pray, and it seems to work a lot better, for me, than the view of God as Santa Claus or the Blue Fairy, granting wishes.
