Prayer?

[Reforged]

I dont accept your assertion that all those praying are asking God for the same thing.

Many MIGHT be praying for God to bring her back from the dead.
Some might be praying for God to turn back time.
Some might be praying that her body be found and bring closure to the parents.
Others might be praying that a suspect is captured.
Some might be praying that she is in a safe and happy place.

Dont go getting all precious asking me for a direct answer to your oblique, rhetorical, and (if you dont mind me saying) insensitive question.

The person responsible for the fact that girl is missing is the criminal who did it. Your lame accusation against God and Christian prayer groups is tantamount to also asking the law enforcement agencies ''...why is she still missing?''

Who the fuck is that moronic?
So you are seriously telling me you think her parents are going;

They're going "Oh hi God. Just wondering if you could imitate superman when he does that thing to turn back time so we can have Madeline back? I know its a tall order and quite abit more complex than just... giving her back but I don't know, I just feel time travel is the only option here. Not particularly sure what would stop the same thing from happening again but oh well, ta-ta... oh and Amen."

Or "Hey God, not really bothered about Maddy being alive. Could we just have her corpse? Ta-ta... oh and Amen."

Or "Hey God, me again. Yeah, all I'm really concerned about is making sure the guy who kidnapped and very likely raped and killed my little girl goes to prison to get a good ass-pounding. That ok?
Awesome. Amen."

I mean all of these pointless scenarios as opposed to
"Please God. I just want my little girl back. I know I've not been the best father in the world... there hasn't been a moment I haven't regreted letting her out my sight. My wife... she can't cope with any of this. Neither of us have slept for what feels like months. Without her... theres just no point for either us. If theres one thing, just one you do for me then let it be this... don't let her be gone... don't let her be dead. I don't care how, I don't care at what cost. Guide her back to me, I beg of you.
Amen."

You seriously think that? Do you? Are you such a wretched, ignorant farce of a human being that you would deny that as the only thought on a loving fathers mind?
That this be the only prayer of any import?
You disgust me and that takes alot to do.
