Can prayer change God's perfect plan?

[Angrboda]

Some people like to think that every little thing that happens was purposely made to happen by the hand of God Himself. But that is simply not true. God is not a micromanager. He created this world with us in it and allows nature to happen as it will, and allows us to make our own choices. I know many Christians buy into this "everything happens for a reason" mentality, but that is simply not true, imho. God's plan is with the eternal result, big picture. Not with details of this life which are insignificant when put into perspective.

Or maybe it's the exact opposite? What is your "opinion" based upon other than a desire to have a consistent and likable theology? The nice thing about made up gods is that they can be anything you want them to be.
