Now, that's a bit disingenuous... do as I say, not as I do, huh?
And when I say that your own path was biased and show it to you, you say it has nothing to do with ASKing...

The method is flawed right off the bat!
how so?
Assume god exists -> ASK -> get a mental confirmation that god exists -> confirmation bias appears to be in action -> just another loony.
Assume nothing -> get confirmation that a god exists -> write paper -> Be on the news -> collect million dollars.
The first scenario requires your mustard's seed of faith...
The second requires none.
You've been told this a number of times in this thread alone... and in other threads lots of other times... but still... it's like you don't pay attention.
