Do you think God answers your payers?

Re: Do you think God answers your payers?

I asked how do you know things do not occur by God’s will and occur by chance?

According to those who believe in God being the ruler of universe and controller of the event (directly or indirectly by giving natural properties to universe),
anything can be asked and be granted through prayer.

You may not believe that, but you cannot prove God had nothing to do with what you call an event or action occurred by ‘chance’.


Above, Queen-24 said something.

And you say something else.

Both are matter of beliefs.

One believes prayer are heard by God, other say its not, its by chance.

**There is no way you can prove or disprove anything here.
Sine you are attacking a belief but hold a belief yourself.

Now to Newton’s law:

I wish you had stuck to the typo.

I already refuted action always=equal result. This is based on the topic which you began.

The topic is about events in lives of people and prayer. Not science or scientific laws.

Hence Newton’s law does not apply to events in human lives and prayer being heard.

BTW: I cannot believe I am explaining this to you. :slight_smile:


Lastly, the difference in chance and probability.

When you remove mathematical calculation, it is chance, when you apply some mathematics to events, it is probability.

But in day to day English word chance is used for 50/50 probability…like in the example of coin.

But the discussion is not about semantics here, I see you have not answered where you said only two possibilities can occur.

Yes, for the most part something to occur can have 50/50 chance but I simply gave you example that a third possibility can be there.


Essentially what I have said that in the events of people’s lives, for example, if one prays for the lottery, and lottery is won, that maybe by chance or by prayer was heard.

No one can prove or disprove how it happened.
