The Philosophy of Salah/Daily Connection/Prayer
#44
RE: The Philosophy of Salah/Daily Connection/Prayer
I don't get the point of prayer.

Continually thanking God and telling him he's amazing: if he requires or demands this, that's his problem. You shouldn't give gifts to expect thanks in return. Certainly not eternal thanks. If he's going to punish you for not doing it he's an egotistical psycopath.

Asking God to do stuff: this implies god isn't already going to do the best course of action.

Also, God already knows what I'm thinking all the time anyway.
