Instead of Christians, Muslims and other religious groups in the world to be praying for their imaginary God to heal covid19 victims, rather they are praying that scientists should speed up their research.

Most religious countries don't budget for science and research, they build churches and mosques instead of hospitals or laboratories.

They have closed all their churches and mosques but don't have enough hospitals which they really depend on.

Because prayers are useless and just mere wishes
Homo Sapiens III 15:12 sacrifices are useless and prayers are for the weak. But he who wants to be great will use his head to think deep, be his own god and do good to his fellow human beings.

Lol...so the person in the white lab coat is an Atheist right? grin.

I see the Atheists are happy with this their new chant.

But I have a question for you OP I want you to answer.

If you contracted the COVID-19 today, why should God heal you personally? (Supposing God exists)

I don't believe in the name of the Lord because God has failed His/Her/Its people!


Thousands of Christians and Muslims around the world have died of covid19 despite praying and begging Jehovah/Allah for life.

Some Christians believe that God/Dog is doing clean up on earth and the people dying from covid19 are evil people and God is deciding to wipe out.

Smile... And more will still die! Not because they are sinners nor God does not care about them. I am not a Believer because i was born a Christian, I believe because i have seen the aspect of God few have seen. And it does not mean i still don't have problems and challenges!
The most important thing to God is where our spirit spends eternity.

You can be poor and broke but He cares more about the state of your soul
You can die in your thirties like Christ... It does not mean he does not care as it's not about when you die!
You as a Christian can even die in a plane crash like pastor Bimbo Odukoya - Your soul matters more to him than how you die
You can die even die of HIV/Aids or an earthquake... Where you spend eternity matters more to him.

You sure about that?

Statistically there more religious/spiritual people on earth than atheists. Most people believe in a form of higher power. Now it is also known that those who believe in a higher form of power (whatever it might be) seek for help in their various professions in life from what they seek as a higher power. E.g. whether it be an actor, business man, med lab scientists.

Now BBC did a research and came to the conclusion that about 84 percent of people in the world are involved in a form of religion. (You can google that). That is about 16 percent of the world are Atheists.

So let's just say, 1 in every 6 persons is an Atheist right. Therefore the chances of that person in the lab coat being a religious person is 5:1.

Now some of these scientists got their striking solutions from dreams. An example will be a man called Dr. James Watson. He got the shape and structure of DNA from his sleep. (Now DNA and natural selection has been a great contender against the theory of evolution.)

So now the question to you is, people such as these (and there are many more). How was their subconscious able to come up with an intelligent solution on an abstract concept? After all, we all came from unintelligible matter as Atheists theorise.

Secondly, will you say here he depended only on scientific deductions to arrive at his solution without the help of a higher force?

Please elucidate.

You're stylishly deviating

We are not talking of atheists or theists here, it's not mentioned anywhere up.
I'm not an atheist/theist,

I'm agnostic,
I agree with science over any religion,

It's science vs these well known Religions

Dreaming is of the mind, don't give it a religious meaning, you will soon claim it was Jesus that revealed the shape of the DNA to that scientist you mentioned.

When God decided to exiled the children of Israel to Babylon as a result of their atrocities, Meshach, Shedrach and Daniel were taking together with the evil doers.

The prayers of the church will not stop the judgement of God on the last day....Or stop the end fromy coming.

I advice every Christian here to read his bible well.The devils are trying all they can to take your faith away.

Christians are dying in pain all over the world just like other people,
Stop deceiving yourself,
Your God don't value you more than other animals like dogs, cats, apes, humans of any religion etc

Stop deceiving yourself with Christianity as there is nothing special being a Christian.

It is simply because the concept of Prayer, itself is stupid and is one of the (many) things a lot of theists don't sit to think about.

So you serve an all-knowing, omnipotent god who knows all what you want but just wants to hear you beg for it? The concept of Prayer itself, leads one to conclude that the Christian or Muslim god if he exists, is a total sadist.

Prayer is OBVIOUSLY USELESS and nothing more than wishful thinking. As people of ALL religions can attest to having their prayers answered, including those with ridiculous gods like the flying spaghetti monster. Even Atheists have wishes that come true some of the time. Prayer does nothing rather than make you feel better about doing nothing.

No drowning Christian would take prayers over an actual life boat. The US declared March 15 as a day of prayer over COVID-19 all over the country. They are now the country with the highest cases of the virus.

Prayer is the single most ridiculous thing about all religions.


It is therefore no surprise why NO meaningful discovery or breakthrough has been made solely by praying. Wake up and smell the coffee guys, Prayer is USELESS, Religion is A LIE.

I wish i child answer that question accurately... But i know, those who died without the law shall be judge without the law! For them, since they didn't hear the gospel... Their conscience shall be their judge. (This id my personal belief and opinion. It does not mean i am right about it).

If that is the case then why are Christians preaching? If those that did not hear the gospel are going to heaven. Then why are Christians trying to reduce their chances by making them hear it (preaching?). Are you guys evil?

Jesus Christ is Lord!!!
Our prayers as Christians are working, the weapons of our warfare are not carnal.
Yes, we know that a lot of Christians have died, but we stand in d gap for them as Christians and we pray to a living God. Our God answers prayers same way He answered the church when the apostles were arrested in the Bible days.
This is definitely d devil's work because anything that stop preaching of the gospel and going to church cannot be from God. Getting people save is God's number one job given to we Christians and anything that want to stop it is not from God because Jesus Christ died for this course.
Solution will definitely come through our prayers as Christians.
