And here's something else, another problem you might have: Suppose your prayers aren't answered. What do you say? "Well, it's God's will." "Thy Will Be Done." Fine, but if it's God's will, and He's going to do what He wants to anyway, why the fuck bother praying in the first place? Seems like a big waste of time to me! Couldn't you just skip the praying part and go right to His Will? It's all very confusing.George Carlin
About This Quote
While it is nice to have faith in God or higher power, if you have faith in them, but still feel that they do not exist, so what are you really praying for? If you are praying to God to make things better in the world, then you are praying for something that is not going to happen anyway. A lot of people pray for things that are already happening anyway. They are praying for what they want instead of accepting what is already happening. For example, when a person believes in God and believes they will get married one day, they are trusting in what they want instead of accepting what is happening.
