Earlier this week when my girl tested positive for covid and was potentially stuck in our vacation destination (Because we are an LDR we both had different travel back). Prayed for it to be a false positive and for her to be able to come home safely. And luckily, that is exactly what happened. A more accurate test was able to overrule the first positive and she could go home.

Literally every time i take a dump, I beg and scream for the Lords mercy but he never answers my prayers.

Perhaps it is because I am insincere and he can tell but it seems much more likely that its because he isn't really there.

It’s a good question but the bible says if you want your prayers to be answered you have to keep it a secret.

That's false. The placebo effect is an example of a prayer, and you don't need any diety for it to happen. You can have faith in your healing and pray without religion.

Either your definition of 'prayer' is so watered down to the point of meaninglessness or you don't know what prayer is.
Placebo is not prayer. No god belief is required for placebo.
I've been an atheist for a decade and a half and I assure you I have not prayed at all in that time.

Most people are brainwashed that praying means begging.
But I'm talking about faith and belief.
Placebo happens as a result of faith.

Placebo happens as a result of faith in... a thing, sure, but what you haven't made the connection to a god.
Faith in, say, a placebo medication is not connected to or dependant upon faith in a god.

I would agree that praying isn't necessarily begging, but it does necessitate talking to a god.

Bo it doesn't mean literally "talking" to god.
God is within you, is accepted by all religions.
That means subconscious beliefs are prayers.

No, that's nonsense. You have a bizarre concept of what prayer is and are just asserting that everyone else thinks/does the same. Not all beliefs are prayers. I have beliefs, I don't believe in a god and do not pray.

But your reality is changed just by your beliefs.
And I am saying that it happens to all people, whatever evidence you choose to look at, maybe it's quantum physics that can convince you.
As I said most people are stuck in stupid ideas that god is some creep you have to beg for forgiveness, I know most people disagree with me.

Miracle healing happens a lot, and 100% of the cases required strong faith. They are the placebo.
Without a change in consciousness there is no outcome of your prayers.
Praying may assist in helping you have faith, but it's only the faith itself that does the work.

Yes, all beliefs are prayers. That's literally it, and I'm not going to tell you more.

You feel afraid all the time, watch scary shit happen to you.

Your prayers may not manifest literally 100% as you imagine, but they manifest according to what you feel.

If you keep thinking of how someone betrayed you and feel as if it keeps happening to you, don't be surprised that it happened again and again.

You are praying all the time, right now. If you're an atheist go read about quantum physics.
If you're a little open minded go try it out for yourself... imagine that you're climbing a ladder, daydream about it. Promise to yourself that you won't climb one in real life but keep imagining it everyday. Feel it as vivid as you can...

See if your light bulb burns out or something else forces you to climb a latter, thousands of people on the internet did this and shared crazy experiences, even atheists. Your imagination creates reality.
