Why did God answer my prayer from everyone elses?
Why didnt God anwer my friends prayer, which was to be healed and not die from cancer and answered mine?
I dunno.
Like I said, I have been there 12 years in a row and never seen dolphins there. Perhaps it was coincidence, perhaps it was not.
However that is of course subjective evidence and I would never use it to try and convince someone there is a God.
You stopped yourself from doing any harm to yourself not a superior being.You saw something which is irrelevant to your troubles and hold on to it. point is, your troubles doesn't needed some supernatural help and you fixed them yourself. But your friend needed a supernatural help and he didn't get any. in conclusion neither of you got any supernatural help from some superior being...

Exactly my point. Your scared of spiders? what? How could you be? You are so much bigger than them. Our experiences shape what we believe, think about it.
fear of spiders is an irrational fear.And people who afraid of spiders knows that its irrational and with little therapy one can overcome this fear. Do you admit that your revelation was also irrational? If so, then you have no proof about god's existance depending on your experiences. which leads us to begining of this argument, can you or can you not use your personal experiences as an evidence to god's exsistance? You tell me the answer...
Quote:Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends.
