[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]from pp who asked for the citation.  I did see the whole thing and don't think it made your point.

Also, it sounds like you are saying that a person who prays frequently is more likely to get their prayers answered than a person who only prays occasionally, when they really want something.  It still sounds like trying to get in good with god so he'll give you more stuff, which makes god sound more human than godly, and not a very nice human, at that.
 
Well, the Bible was written by humans, so it's not so strange that it would reflect some selfish human thinking.[/quote]

Much in the Bible cannot be taken literally. Luke Chapter 11 is one such passage. If one could take it literally, all my health problems and my child's special needs would be gone. Nothing in the Bible says that you can wear God down. In fact, you cannot even change God's mind because [b] God is immutable in time. Since the dawn of time He already knew everything that was going to happen because He all knowing. To God, time is one eternal present[/b]. [/quote]

How do you know that?  Did you learn it somewhere?  If so, what is your source of information and how do you know it's reliable?[/quote]
