I mean, God only answer yes, no or wait. I've had Christians confirm those are the only 3 answers God ever gives. For now, we'll ignore the fact that I could get the same response by praying to brick, and assume God is real, and once in a while answers a prayer. I'll consider this a thought experiment.
So what are Gods' criteria for responding?
Is it the sincerity or emotion of the prayer?
Is it how desperate the prayer is?
Are there points for how in need the person praying actually is?
Is it more likely to be answered if you are praying on behalf of somebody else?
Does it depend on how long the prayer is?
Does it depend on there being flowery language?
Does he pay more attention if lots of people pray about the same thing?
Does a prayer from the president or Billy Graham count more than one from John Smith?
Is it better if you pray out loud, or just in your head?
Is it better to pray for things that could happen purely by chance based on natural laws to avoid disappointment?
