  Well what I've been saying for years is:  Why pray?  If it changes God's mind then he is not soveriegn, if it doesn't then it is superfulous.


The thing is though that it may not have to do with God changing his mind, but that He may act depending on humans faiths. In other words: The person in need of help is depending on your support. If you don't tell God that He should help him then the person need to die, as a punishment for your lack of faith.

And then the 'Thy will be done' phrase enters the picture...
