There is no such thing as unanswered prayer, Its probably not prayer. If it qualifies as prayer it must be answered. Even 'no' is an answer and always with a positive result.

Liveair:
Meaning that God may have said "NO" to the prayers of the faithful in Nigeria against boko haram killings?
I thought Jesus said "whatever you ask in my name shall be granted you by the Father"

Apatheist:
They forgot to tithe, that's why.

Liveair:
Tithe?
What has tithe got to do with anything!

Apatheist:
If you tithe your prayers will be answered.
If they still aren't answered you need to sow a seed!

Liveair:
But not all churches are like that you know.

Evil Brain: You atheists should shut up abeg! Prayer works dammit, and I have the statistics to prove it!



Oh, wait... never mind.

EvilBrain1: You atheists should shut up abeg! Prayer works dammit, and I have the statistics to prove it!



Oh, wait... never mind.

Liveair:
No...No...No, i beg to disagree!
This data cannot be said to be fair. It would seem that your data carefully avoided countries like US, Canada, UAE, etc. To be fair, sample more randomly picked countries in different areas of the globe with sizable population and lets scrutinize.

MadCow1: 0%..

If God Answered Prayers, I would be texting you right now from the Backseat of my Rolls Royce Phantom whilst my MOPOL and SSS detail are busy clearing up this darn traffic.

Why don't you just go and rob a bank for goodness sake

mumumugu: How i go mark God exam?

EvilBrain:

Okay then:

Country | Infant Mortality Rate | Percentage Christians
United States | 5.4/1000 | 73%
Canada | 5.22/1000 | 67.3%
UAE | 6.86/1000 | 9%
And for good measure:
Nigeria | 96.14/1000 (Shame on us!!!) | 50.8%

There is absolutely no correlation between percentage of Christians and infant mortality or any other health index. The statistics clearly show that all those prayers make no appreciable difference. Sorry, but my point stands.

The sauce of the infant mortality data is from the UN World Population Prospects Report from 2010 via Wikipedia. The percentage of christians figures are from the CIA world factbook. The 50.8% number for Nigeria is of course suspect since we don't include ethnicity and religion in our censuses, but the other three are rock solid. You can double check if you don't believe.

Sorry for bursting your bubble.

Kyase:
u talk am all

donroxy: Mine is 99% !
The remaining 1% is simply for caution !


Tis not about mere praying :

it is about working hard by doing the right thing @ the right time in the right place ......

Prayer only bring you closer to your luck , help with influences beyond your realm ..... 75% of the Job would be done by you !!


After prayer bring your luck/dream to you , u take it up from there and grasp it with both hands using ur brain else ...... na only smell u go dey smell am, u no go fit lick am verily sef u go fit smell am again !

Liveair:
Haven't you ever prayed for peace in Nigeria or for safe return of the Chibok girls? Was it part of your 99% or 1%?

Liveair:
Am sure if it was 100% there wouldn't be any hesitation in marking God.
Is this another scare tactic?

donroxy: This is simply myopia you are displayin here !


The same Nigerian Army fighting Bokoharam is the same Army giving Bokoharam intelligence

Recently in the news , a man who is ring leader of Civilian JTF was found to be supplying Bokoharam with Intelligence .........

Which Prayer , when some cabals aint ready to holistically fight against bokoharam !

Nonetheless, My Prayer has always been on my own personal issues

No matter how much you prayed for Nigeria or your friend if we aint ready to make Nigeria work it will never work thy kingdom come !

Heaven help those who are ready to help themselves !

Liveair:
Clearly, the US and Canada as you have stated are not doing badly considering their sizes and population with repect to other nations listed.
UAE cannot be sampled with christianity. The issue here is Percentage of answered prayer, Islam inclusive. UAE should be sampled WRT Islam.
No, i really have no bubble to burst. You clearly dont know my position.

EvilBrain1:

The US and Canada are not doing badly because they are wealthy first world nations where post people have access to advanced healthcare and public safety measures are strictly enforced. It has nothing to do with Jesus.

And I only included UAE because you asked about it. Plus even if you added Muslims, it wouldn't help your case because the countries with the greatest numbers of Muslims are almost invariably third world shîtholes. The percentage Muslim population of Denmark and Japan is negligible and there are no predominantly Muslim countries with comparably low infant mortality figures so the Muslims would just drag down your numbers and make things worse for you.

Even if you could prove that the countries in the picture I posted were cherry-picked (and you can't because they weren't), you'd still not have any evidence that prayer works. All you have is a bunch of anecdotes, and anecdotes are basically worthless as evidence.
