It never came in their mind that what religions say may be totally different from what God (if exist at all)
may think or say.
I brought the attention to this failing time and time again but people keep on falling in the same trap so I
open a poll to see what they think regard all this.

Even if god(s) existed it wouldn't be a god that is man made.
The problem would be like so if these supposed god(s) existed no one 
would know who are what it even is. A technologically superior race of alien beings 
would look like god(s) to us because our level of comprehension would be so greatly  
challenged by the  level of technology we see as god like. On the other hand what makes you
so certain that you're own god exist and why can't the others that are in the biblical canon.  
So the problem is 1. we wouldn't know said beings  2. we have no basis of communication to said beings
3. all forms of worship are  pointless 4. prayer is ultimately meet with silence and said god(s) dont give a fuck
this would mean A. god(s)  dont care about us feeble humans and B. said beings have better things to do.


You put forward interesting questions.
Unfortunately the reality is quite different.

1) It is true that prayers lead nowhere.
Would you ask your father for the daily bread?
How foolish is to think that your father doesn't know that his sons and daughters need food?
These people can't get it.

2) Why God doesn't show to himself to people?
It does but it only show himself to those who do the effort to understand him.
Beside it wouldn't make sense to show himself to people who worship idols or people who deny him.  Lightbulb
