Why do stupid religious freaks always talk about prayers when they never work and never make their fucked up lives any better?
If prayers really worked, wouldn't you all be happy?

Would you all have great spouses, beautuful families?

Wouldn't you all be debt free, safe, healthy and carefree?

Wouldn't preachers and priests that constantly pray be the happiest and most successful people on earth?

Why do you dumb fuckers continue to believe this stupid bullshit?

Wouldn't the Muslims that pray every fucking day be in safe, comfortable homes, with good food and nice jobs?

Why are they instead, abused, tortured, killed and many go hungry?

To pray is nothing but a fucking lie!

Why do people pray for people that are sick when statistically they survive at the same rate as non believers?

Prayers do nothing.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69764941

Op... You have good questions...

But ask God about praying. He will explain it to you, if you ask.

One key - God will not be reduced to a magic spell. A chant, or something. God is God, and will remain God. But don't worry... He already proved that He loves you by sending Jesus to die for our sins... so it's OK.

Many times, God does say Yes... but it may entail a time of waiting first.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hebrews 12
Hear the Heavenly Voice
25 See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sometimes it works like this Op,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hebrews 11
Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. 36 Still others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yes, and of chains and imprisonment. 37 They were stoned, they were sawn in two, [k]were tempted, were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented— 38 of whom the world was not worthy. They wandered in deserts and mountains, in dens and caves of the earth.

39 And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise, 40 God having provided something better for us,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They did Not get the answer to their prayers.... but God rewards them anyways ... for believing Him.

God is God...

Re: Why do stupid religious freaks always talk about prayers when they never work and never make their fucked up lives any better?
If you really think about it, prayers are the ultimate form of a violation of free will.

You are either praying for someone else to do something they wouldn't normally do. Say like get healthy. They will not make the personal effort to get healthy so someone prays that 'bamb' they are healthy. Or someone isn't doing something you want .. mutter a few words and 'bamb' they change their mind.

It is the ultimate form of laziness or denial of this reality. Instead of accepting facts or getting off of your ass to make the changes yourself, you end up just muttering a few words.

I don't think it is very good for the soul.

Ask God ... if Prayer is a good thing or not.

Jesus prayed... Are we so important that we shouldn't?

Ask God.

So what happens when 2 people pray for the exact opposite outcome.

Say one person is praying the other notices them and falls in love. Where the other one prays they would just be left alone from the religious stalker?

Or how about 2 armies that were fooled into fighting each other for some oligarch.

Both armies pray until the early morning light for victory.

Which one will god answer? Which one will receive favor?

Re: Why do stupid religious freaks always talk about prayers when they never work and never make their fucked up lives any better?
If you were god, would you simply give an adoring subject their harts desire? Or would you rather them work for what they want through the gifts you have already endowed them with?

If you gave them what they are asking for by muttering a few words, would they ever become self sufficient? Would they ever learn? Why would they ever get off of their ass to accomplish something?

Or if you were god, would you rather people sweat and perspire for what they truly wanted?

If I were god, I would be pissed. Creating this wonderful reality and giving mankind numerous gifts to become more than anything else in this reality. Then they endlessly complain. bitch and moan ... bitch and moan ....

Or would you rather have a creation that took the wonderful gifts you have already passed out and accomplished something on their own...wondrous acts of the will and then at the end of it, after asking for nothing along the way, gave you praise for simply giving them the chance and praising you for this reality and for the simple breath itself?

Just because the scriptures bounce off of you Op... and you can't ingest, or respond to them... doesn't make them useless.

Others read the (useless <- your words) scriptures and are blessed by them.

I'll agree though... people who paste walls of text are not doing anybody any favors...
