This is about as interesting as anything this absurd can be. It’s the Atheist Prayer Experiment:

We are asking each atheist who wishes to take part to pray for 2 to 3 minutes a day for 40 days for God to reveal Himself to them.

We would like any reflections, reactions, or revelations (positive or negative) experienced during the experiment to be recorded by participants. This may be video/audio Journal, blog, on a dedicated Facebook page, sent in by email etc.

Any participants need to be willing to record a radio interview about their experience of the experiment, though not everyone who takes part will necessarily be asked to do this.

I won’t be participating. Not just because of how absurd it is, but because I’ve already done it and I’m sure a pretty large percentage of atheists, at least those who used to be religious, have as well. If a good year and a half of praying for God to reveal himself to me ended in me accepting my loss of faith and walking away from it all, then what would 40 days do?
