I know people talk about there prayers being answered but have you ever thought about all the prayers that went unanswered? I believe you have to make who you are in this world with your own decisions and your own judgement. Ill work for what I want and I only have myself to thank for that because he sure as hell didnt help me along the way. |
1. You are making fundamental assumptions about God, prayer, and your relationship with God in these statements.
2. These assumptions, while they may be based on your understanding of the watered down theology of your culture, are fundamentally contradictory and simply just not well thought out.
3. Some of your statements, which are based on these assumptions, are self-contradictory.

I do not criticise people for there religious views and I don't want you to criticise me. I'm glad whatever created me had created me but that is it.

"Criticism. Blame. Judgement"
These don't form part of the discusion here. The purpose of a forum is to share and comment on ideas. That's communication is it not? I'm not trying to impose my will here, or to minimize other's sense of self, but you're now simply putting your head in the ground like an ostrich and that surely won't ever achieve anything?
" I'm glad whatever created me had created me but that is it. "
Then you are not one who wishes to know the reason behind the phenomena we percieve. That is ok, there's nothing wrong with it. But then merely blurting out an opinion is a little counter-productive to progress as a whole and also to your self-admitted existential view.
Isn't it important to ask why you are "glad" that you exist?
