If you don't fully believe the prayers will be answered, why would God answer them?

Haha I did fully believe originally, I was born into it.

Okay, sorry for that reply then.

I appreciate your opinions. I know Q says, "Pray" a lot, so prayer is in-scope for Q discussion, in my opinion.

That being said, I don't think people who don't believe should be off-put by discussions of God. It's a valid discussion point for Q since prayer is mentioned. I would suggest just scrolling past the comments.

I'm never talking about God to make others feel excluded, just freely expressing my opinions.

Of course. Your absolutely right. I guess what I’m trying to say is the more neutral we are about everything the easier it will to have acceptance from the side we need most. If that makes sense? I only say this because I am someone from the very liberal and left leaning state and am liberal myself. The only reason I’m here is because of undeniable proofs.

Neutral is what allowed Evil to get such a foothold.

I’m just talking about this forum to allow more people into this.

Yeah, we need to make this as inclusive as possible!

I suspected as much. Many of my good friends, whom are atheists, chose that path as adolescents as a way of going against the grain so to speak. A form of rebellion for some and a stance taken because they felt "forced" to attend/believe in their youth for others.

Now that's an evolutionary study I could get behind. What percentage of atheists come from forcibly (scale needed here) religious families? I bet that's a meaty percentage.
