Speaking from someone who doesn't acknowledge the existance or unexistance of a God figure (umm... agnostic anyone?)....
I really could care less if people ask on a public board for people to "pray" for other etc. I mean, it's a public board and they're basically asking for support. I'll usually reply that I'll keep that people 'in my thoughts' regardless of whether I think of thinking of a person will help any.
However, in any type of professional setting taking place outside a church or church organization, asking for people to pray is highly inconsiderate. It would make me highly uncomfortable since I would just be there doing nothing. I do prefer 'moments of silence' since I will reflect on live and the ability for people to change and turn for the better. (umm... depending on circumstance)
I rather like when people say they'll pray for me... unless of course, they mean it in the way that I need to change... LOL.
