Welcome to JUICED - a general chat community that focuses on providing an enjoyable place to visit and participate in. JUICED was first established in early April as a closed community; meaning that registrations were only allowed for 24 hours once a month. The idea worked surprisingly well, though it tried up after a few months and we ultimately decided to open the community for good. After another few months and a unsuccessful merge, we're back, and this time, we're here to stay!

Well thats just ignorant towards everything else in the world, we dont know what else exists or what doesnt exist for that matter, nor do we know everything, therefore we cant just assume it was god.

Thankfully, life isnt as simple as thanking imaginary figures for everything we cant explain.
Well, it is for the religious community anyway

This imaginary figure has a book called The Bible and when we pray, I almost always get an answer afterward, sometimes I get one straight away. Need more examples of when someone prayed and something miraculous happened?

No, and since you cant directly say it was god, since the only proof you have is people praying and something happening.

You dont have some security footage of god appearing and doing it lol.

Also, god didnt exactly write the bible... people did... just like i could write a bible for my own religion, doesnt make it anymore legit lol

How far will you go?
Every time I've prayed (4 times in my life), nothing happened.

Stop putting gay things here.
Miracles can all be scientifically explained, but we just don't know how to explain them with the science we know. That's why people call them miracles, because there is no known explanation. The thing about praying and answering is a coincidence, every time. People are going to pray no matter what if that is what they believe. Prayers are just a way to show hope. They have no correlation to what actually happens.

God himself doesn't have to appear, he works through people most of the time. What we call when something miraculous happens but we don't see the forces at work but we know they did it, its called faith. Their faith was very high because they put their trust in God and their faith got them their reward. The whole point of Religion is believeing without seeing. Every single religion may have a God that they, themselves haven't physically seen.

But they know he's there because of their faith. That is the whole point in the first place. When you have faith, you pray and something miraculous happens, every time. It can't be a coincidence every single time. Faith is like the wind, we can't see it but we know it's there. We can feel it but we can't see it if there is no trees in the distance, there is no way you can tell if there is a huge gust of wind coming until it is too late. But then again, we know it's there.

No their is faith and then there is blindness. Allot of people seem to confuse the two very heavily, we all think cause we believe in a higher power that he must be responsible regardless of facts or other evidence at hands.

That is just stupidity that people put so much on the line just because they think that god did it which relies heavily on the fact they prayed.

Praying is fine, but if you are going to say that every miracle or amazing thing to happen can't be explained except for the answer that comes back as "God", then im sorry, people are blind.

And what if it wasn't, its a question that cannot be answered regardless of how much people fight over the subject.

I just don't like those people that seem to think everytime something miraculous or amazing happens, that is must be the work of god or the god of their religion. There is a huge world out there of unexplained things, and they throw all that away just cause it's not what they believe in.
