    No, getting up off your ass, communicating and making things happen does.

    everything aint for everybody. I can honestly say there are some things that I prayed for that came to me. Some things never really materialized but hey.. To each its own.

    I see prayer as a form of meditation. I think it gives u an enlightening feeling and makes u feel better.

    If u get what u prayed for then u believe it works but if u don't get what u prayed for u assume there is a reason/meaning behind it.

    Just depends on your beliefs I don't impose mine on others or put people down for theirs.

    Prayer is full of arrogance; they think that the world revolves around them and that ? only works in their favor.

    It's ? . They never think twice, or even once, that there's others who's prayers go unanswered when praying for life's necessities. Yet they get their prayers answered for a ? tire change or 25¢ raise.

    That whole "? works in mysterious ways", is another way of saying, "? those heathens, we are better so therefore ? answers us."

    GTFOH.

    So ? has a plan and ? knows all thats going to happen before it happens. And why does ? know this? Because he planned for it to happen long before we were even born.

    ^^^ CHRISTIAN PHILOSOPHY ON ? ...

    Taking that logic (which is Christian logic) into account. There is no need to pray.

    SELFISH PRAYER: "? please save my grandmother from cancer"

    According to Christian Logic: ? gave your grandmother cancer and it is already preordained whether she will die from it or not. WHY PRAY?

    non-selfish prayer: "Thank You ? for blessing me with 2 beautiful children."

    According to Christian Logic: You were going to have those kids if you wanted them or not. ? already planned those kids for you.

    Thus nothing is in your control. both Muslims & Christians say, "LORD WILLING" in any situation. Thus, it's the Lord's will/plan no matter what. Prayer or no prayer. Religion itself and the belief in an all-knowing, omnipotent ? renders prayer pointless.

    Exactly, just more ? .
