prayer works but not for the reason most believe. people tend to give a higher being more credit and short their own abilities.

especially when it comes to topics about god's existence

Balderdash, prayer works instantly. OP, tell him what you want and he WILL deliver
You gotta have faith (which you clearly dnt)...Not tryna be facetious, but you should ask your OG Lucifer
Nothing happened....and I really wanted it to happen. I had as much faith as a man could possibly have, I wanted it bad.
This is not faith.Originally Posted by AntonLaVey

Ok, I'll take it.Originally Posted by AntonLaVey
Anyhow prayers and faith can be powerful but not in the way you guys think. It's psychosomatic, the same phenomena that governs the placebo effect. Faith/ prayer can have a huge impact in recovery from disease and surgical procedures.....or simply just staying positive.
It won't work for anyone who prays and questions the faith.Originally Posted by davidisgodly
Damn, from the look of things. I need to pray more.
Hmm I don't mean to be a %##% again....but so everyone who doesn't get their prayers answered is questioning their faith? I find that kinda hard to believe. History has shown the most religious of people are usually the most desperate....a lot of times/ most of the time their prayers do not get answered.Originally Posted by HoisanDoiXHaze

Do people still get on their knees for God? (No mystical-$%!#)
people do whatever they need to do to get in the prayerful/spiritual mood.
OP just ignore all of AntonLavey's posts in this thread, he's pretending to answer your question but clearly just wants to stir up debate.. yes, prayer works for me. i cant even count the number of times me and my family/friends have been pulled out of tough situations due to prayer and faith in God. someone could say it was all luck or human perseverance, but with the frequency of prayers i have seen answered, i'm not buying that.
you can always go to God with a contrite heart.. just lay down your problems in life, make the heartfelt effort to commit everything into His hands and strengthen your faith everyday, and also to give God the glory when your prayers are answered instead of assuming the credit for yourself.

Prayer however, will not make Megan Fox appear on top of my erect penis. Doesn't work that way.

How are ppl gonna say prayer works when they have no proof? Example:My leg hurts, I pray to God to heal BUT I go to the doctor to get it checked out and he gives me medicine. In the end my leg gets better, is that the result of prayer? or the doctor's medicine? How do you even prove that the act of you praying made your leg heal, I think most ppl use prayer as an excuse to say God is powerful/almighty/etc and as it has been said 1 million times. Prayer: the act of doing nothing but still think you're doing something.Originally Posted by D723
Prayer works. This is coming from someone who didn't believe in God for most of his life.
It works....
