People often complain about how their prayers always go unanswered, and I was just wondering what the AG community thought about this topic. I was also interested in where your opinions where on asking God for something.
Somehow, I don't think this thread has long to live.
Anyways, I think the only reason people think prayer does anything is because it's more memorable when it's answered, not when it fails. The same goes for all things, do you remember how many times you've lost the slots? No, but I can bet you can remember when you've won.
Prayer has a 0.01% chance of helping which is the same as not praying at all.the great prayer experiment showed that knowing you are being prayed for is actually bad for you. And if God knows everything why pray to him. Since he knows what you need why doesn't he give it to you if you don't pray since he already knows about it?
