Obviously?

Yeah, I had the same thought as you. Certainly there's room for diverse opinions, but to say that prayer doesn't work or have an effect on circumstances is a bit narrow-minded, IMO.

How do you figure prayer works? If 300,000,000 catholics pray for the pope to get better and he dies, how do you figure it functions in anyway other than psychologically?

There have been a few studies done, Mr. Dave Lane ... as I'm sure you're aware. A couple have been countered or debunked, of course, based on unscientific testing standards or lack or control groups or insufficient sampling or whatever. However, one of the most interesting ones was a blind prayer exercise for primates (sick monkeys, I think it was ... just going on memory here). Anyhow, a bunch of people prayed for certain of the monkeys and the control group remained ill or died poor little sad monkey deaths, but the "prayed-for" monkeys significantly improved. The idea was that the monkeys had no idea they were being prayed for ... unlike humans might.

Crazy.
