yea but by the logic of your answer, this is basically what u are saying.

listen breh congrats on the new job, and if you are one of those sincerely peace loving, kind hearted christians then i salute you, but to say god himself answered your prayer while neglecting millions of others is kinda wack.

Philosophical disagreements aside, I'm sure most of us here challenging you are happy that you have a job and recovered from your accident. At least I am.

But in this subforum, people will challenge you on your beliefs and logical positions. There are plenty of Christian oriented boards out there that will eat this up and pat you on the back without a problem.

Good luck on your future endeavors.

Thanks for the well wishes. But
I'm just what sharing my story on a sub forum that has religion has one of the topics. I'm not trying to change anyones point of view of religion I'm just sharing mine. I should be allowed to do so. I'm not saying I'm some super Christian or that I'm superior to anyone on the forum. I'm just sharing an experience.

i believe in faith. faith = positive thinking. i believe in the power of positive thinking. THERE lies the power of prayer. you believe that your prayer will be answered so CONFIDENTLY, that it happens. but wether u pray to god, allah, or just shroud yourself in positivity and confidence, its all the same. religion is just a story put to universal truths. a story that was taken too literal.

so to answer your question, yes and no. i do believe prayer works, but not because you are a christian. god didnt answer your prayer, u made it happen for yourself.

They question and spite the Lord and expect what? You should really read the Bible. Not everything is sunshine and rainbows

Study of the Therapeutic Effects of Intercessory ... [Am Heart J. 2006] - PubMed - NCBI

In the 2 groups uncertain about receiving intercessory prayer, complications occurred in 52% (315/604) of patients who received intercessory prayer versus 51% (304/597) of those who did not (relative risk 1.02, 95% CI 0.92-1.15). Complications occurred in 59% (352/601) of patients certain of receiving intercessory prayer compared with the 52% (315/604) of those uncertain of receiving intercessory prayer (relative risk 1.14, 95% CI 1.02-1.28). Major events and 30-day mortality were similar across the 3 groups.
CONCLUSIONS:

Intercessory prayer itself had no effect on complication-free recovery from CABG, but certainty of receiving intercessory prayer was associated with a higher incidence of complications.

this dude sounds like a christian version of slaimon

even using the same phrases in multiple posts "you should read the bible" and the "sunshine and rainbows" spiel

this dude literally doesn't have the brainpower to manufacture different ways of conveying thoughts

Question and spite the Lord? For being in a concentration camp and pleading for God's help without answer? As children are being burned or gassed daily?

But hey, "he" got you a job.

That doesn't sound silly to you? Not even a little bit?

I understand that I'm blessed everyday for the way I live and that many suffer for the things I take for granite. I also thank the Lord for my blessings why is that such a bad thing and why do I have to turn my back on God because there is evil in the world
