I agree with J when he says it's contextual. When somone hears that I'm sitting an exam, they will say 'I'll say a wee prayer for you' (as my nana always did) and I find that very touching. If they hear that I'm gay and say 'I'll pray for you' then that really sucks, because they are 'elevating' themselves above me. And it's not meant with good intent Sad
