She, being a nun, says "I'll pray for you", to which I said "Help yourself, lady."
My response would have been (as I've said here on TB multiple times), "I'll pray for you is how fake Christians say f**k you!".

And if they are using God or prayer with evil intent, then don't you think God will sort that out?

Don't you get it?? The SAYING of "I'll pray for you" is INTENDED TO BE AN INSULT. It is INTENDED to be a snarky comment. I couldn't care less if God will "sort it out." It is what it is. I won't take an insult like that without a retort. I WILL NOT give a snarky b*tch/b*stard the last word, and I'd want them to know that I know how the comment was intended, and understand the contempt in which I hold them.
ETA: It doesn't take GOD to figure out which is a genuine offer of prayer and which is an insult. we can do that easily enough.
