Quote: No. Answering a prayer would entail that God has changed a facet of the universe on behalf of a particular penitent. Since God is, by defintion, immutable, God is logically unable to change or to effect change. Ah, no. Prayer is not a petition to God to change the universe to fit your personal want or desire. Prayer is the method in which Christ Himself taught us to use to help us Change "Our will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven." To "God's will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven."How about when you pray for someone's health or for someone in trouble? How does that fit with this?
Again prayer is to change our will and not God's. your thinking of supplication/petitioning God. which is not a sin, but at the same time is also not praying.
I have no problem sharing a common ancestor with the apes; it's being related to some people that bothers me.
