That wasn't really the point that was being made. The bible states that it is possible for miracles to happen, how they can happen, and what will happen when asked for. Certainly, you can pray for universally perfect human (or better) eyesight can happen to every human being on the planet someday, but it won't be because anyone prayed for it, it'll be because people worked their lives in the medical (or other applicable scientific) fields their whole lives and worked until such a reality can occur. It won't be a mysical act of god - it'll be done by human hands and human minds.

If today you can take a thing like evolution and make it a crime to teach in the public schools, tomorrow you can make it a crime to teach it in the private schools and next year you can make it a crime to teach it to the hustings or in the church. At the next session you may ban books and the newspapers...
Ignorance and fanaticism are ever busy and need feeding. Always feeding and gloating for more. Today it is the public school teachers; tomorrow the private. The next day the preachers and the lecturers, the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, Your Honor, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until with flying banners and beating drums we are marching backward to the glorious ages of the sixteenth centry when bigots lighted fagots to burn the men who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind. ~Clarence Darrow, at the Scopes Monkey Trial, 1925

Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~Ronald Reagan
