Is that really so? I've never come across that idea before. My grandson, as me before him always ends his nightly prayers with God bless Mummy, God bless Daddy, God bless Grandma.. etc etc.. It's never been suggested to me in my churchgoing years that anything like that was bad form.

Again that's not correct. I have prayer cards, and I don't evangelise. I consider them to be an alternative way of telling someone they're in your thoughts.

Just my experience. The only times I have been offered prayer cards was on each occasion the start of a (polite and gentle) sales pitch. No big deal to me, as unlike the equality nuts I'm actually OK with people having alternative ways, as long as they do no harm or frighten the horses.
