PRAYER ALWAYS WORKS- no one ever prayed and didn't get what they prayed for...what you asked is what you get. not understanding how something works due to ignorance doesn't make it useless... |

greatgenius: PRAYER ALWAYS WORKS- no one ever prayed and didn't get what they prayed for...what you asked is what you get. faith without work is dead according to the bible, but work without faith is absolute success from experience, so what exactly is the use of prayer if without work its a failure. prayer is for the weak, those who need a false sense of comfort and security. 1 Like |

prayers don't work. Infact prayers never work. Its all superstition. I mean there have been topics here in the past on why god dose not answer prayers. I know many graduates at home now still praying for a decent job still unemployed after finishing university many years ago The fact that you can buy a book on how to pray to me is more than enough evidence that prayers don't work. Because I don't need to buy a book on how to drink water, how to breathe or how to walk so why how to pray? 2 Likes |

It is just a matter of personal choice. Well done Frosbel. You are well on your way to the other side, the good side. Your mental sovereignty is almost at hand. lol 3 Likes |

The thing I don't get about religious people is why they are so unwilling to check if their prayers and rituals actually work. I mean, how hard could it be? Just compile a register of an equal number of Christians, Muslims, animists any other religion, atheists, and a random control group. Make the groups similar in all ways except their religion to avoid bias. Track them for 10 or 20 years and measure some objective, quantifiable parameters to see which group is doing better. How many of them are still alive? How many have developed serious illnesses like cancer? How many women in each group died in childbirth? What's the infant mortality rate in each group? What's the average life expectancy? What's the divorce rate? If some god is answering prayers then one or some of the religions should be clearly better than others. After all everybody prays for their children to be safe, right? So the true religion should have the lowest infant mortality rate since god answers prayers. This way we can finally put to rest which religion is the true one, stop arguing on Nairaland, and concentrate on kissing the one true god's behind. Of course is our study shows no difference in many areas or if the atheists are better off than the religions in those parameters where there is a statistically significant difference, that would pretty much confirm that there is either no god or if there is, there is no point praying to him because he doesn't answer. 3 Likes |
