How important or helpful is it to have a large collective of people say the exact same prayer, using the exact same words? For example, General Patton supplied a precise weather prayer to more than 200,000 individuals, asking for a very specific outcome that the Divine was able to provide. Suppose instead, he simply asked his men to “pray for good weather,” and further suppose that the exact same number of people who actually prayed Patton’s prayer from his printed card, instead offered their own sincere heartfelt prayer with the same level of belief and sincerity, but the prayers themselves would all have been authored by each individual rather than one author. Assuming all else was equivalent, how critical was it that everyone was focused on the exact same prayer?

How surprised and confounded was the Extraterrestrial Alliance when the weather broke in favor of the Allies, enabling them to win the Battle of the Bulge (where Patton had asked his 3rd Army to pray for good weather)? Was the Extraterrestrial Alliance using weather modification? Did their equipment malfunction or was it simply impotent, inexplicably? Were any individual Extraterrestrial Alliance members blamed and punished for the failure?

General Patton had a chaplain prepare a “weather prayer” that was handed out to the 250,000 troops involved in the Battle of the Bulge in World War II: “Almighty and most merciful father, we humbly beseech the, of thy great goodness, to restrain these immoderate rains with which we have had to contend. Grant us fair weather for battle. Graciously hearken to us as soldiers who call upon Thee that armed with Thy power, we may advance from victory to victory, and crush the oppression and wicked wickedness of our enemies, and establish Thy justice among men and nations. Amen.” did this one prayer turn the tide? What would the likely outcome have been if the Germans succeeded in their plan to destroy the port of Antwerp, the only fully operational seaport on the entire European coastline at the time and was critical for supplying the Allied war effort on the mainland?
