Re: Prayer

Great question, for sure. Though if I were representing the alleged infringer I'd argue that prayer, unlike a writer's muse, is by definition, divinely inspired. In which case, only the divinity could bring the cause of action. But I wouldn't wear any metal if there was a thunderstorm on the way to court.
