Inside your head is a censer. It's a needed part of your mind, without it editing out input, you'd be flooded with sensory data. Try this, how much of the awareness of your butt seated on a chair were you, before I brought it to your attention? That is the censer a work.
It also has a side-effect tho. part of it is attached to your view of reality, your point of view, or as Robert Anton Wilson and others refer to it, your reality tunnel. Not only does it censer just sensory, it censer all input, even information. It's also that which keeps you from performing magic.
So, in order to do that, we need to dance a little side-step. If the wall is there, and it's too hard to destroy, in fact, the wall is needed to keep out a raging flood, then we need a dodge, a way of going around the wall. A tunnel, if you will, to the outside. You can pray to yourself all you want, but it's a bit more workable, if you pray to something else. This is the dodge, you send the desires (prayers) to something outside your wall, and then it may be able to work, since you're getting it past your censer.
Mages do something similar, we call it spells, but it's all just the dodge used to get things around the roadblock.

because people who believe in western religions think there must be a "higher being" to guide them or else you cant do good because no ones telling you how you should run your life [no set guidlines]. if you NEED someone to tell you not to hurt or kill other people...your F**KED UP!! im not saying ALL people who are fundamental about thier religion are like that but shockingly some people DO think like that. they believe that if god didnt exist with these rules about how to be good [10 commandments]...they would go and hurt/kill people.
i also think many people like the idea of a "father" because people dont want to be responsible for every little action you do. its harder to deal with. its much easier to live thinking you have someone that always cares for you, understands you and your situation. and will no matter what always love you and care for you forever and ever.
and TOTALLY! i agree with you 100%. i think you are responsible for your own actions and there is no "destiny" that runs your life. you can use religion as a way to justify "bad" things youve done in your life. lets say you killed someone...and you accept jesus as your lord and savior and ask with your best intentions for forgivness. jesus forgives you and YAY your forgiven of this horrible sin....thats great and all but that doesnt CHANGE the FACT that you KILLED someone. i think if your parents raised you with good common sense morals you can become a good, loving person.

These brothers are examples for us to emulate. There are many sisters as well but the men that wrote these books are jealous of the power of women and have chosen to delete these great examples of love and nurturing. They were replaced by power hungry man thoughts of fear ie: eye for an eye, you are wrong for your beliefs. There is nothing about us that is not God>>>>>>. We are totally God within and outside. The only time we are disconnected is when we choose to turn away from the Truth within and seek evidence (The illusion)outside of ourselves. We are all one and never truly alone just individuals living our freewill experience to heal that which we can to heal. Remember what our brother said : That we shall do all he is capable of and more. Hooray to you Love life and live impeccably.

why do u pray for allah?
- the world is full of amazing and beautfiul things in ourselves, ants, oceans and universe..... Allah has created all of that...in the same time, what did human being do? his all inventions, i am a petroleum researcher, depends all of better understanding, just understanding, of things so we can use it for better.
- U can not save yourself.... a bike or a small stone may kill u...so u are a useless god.... however, when u believe in allah, u believe also in fate, he does what he wants whenever he wants.... so, when u have any problem, u find yourself patient, self calmed...u feel that u do not have to worry alot, just do what u have to do..and allah will gift u..either in this life or afterlife.
- U are so weak, limited and useless...u can not be anything else.. a human being.

Because you aren't God, I think that's kind of obvious. If you were you wouldn't be asking questions cause you would know it all. You're praying because you recognize that you aren't powerful (you could drop dead any second, nothing you can really do about it) and don't know everything. God created the Universe, knows the past and future. I think it might make more since to pray to Him, don't you?

There is only one true and living God. Many people are deceived by Satan into believing that they are God. Yes, there are people who have even organized under this doctrine, but it is false. Pray to the Creator, not the creation, because all power comes from Him. As sinners, we could not boldly approach God until He gave His only son Jesus Christ to died for our sins. Jesus Christ is not dead, but is seated at the right hand of God and interceding on your (and my) behalf. This is who we should be praying to. All else is in vain.

You can want to be the God of yourself, but that doesn't mean it's going to happen! To Christians, Jesus is alive.

In Huna (Hawaiian spirituality) that is exactly what happens. You send your prayers to your own higher self, no higher, your higher self gets you what you need. Simple and self-contained. (I oversimplified for the purpose of this answer.)

The Bible Fully Support Slavery!! Why you cant get into Heaven!?
Direct Quotes from the BIBLE- Bibles FULLY SUPPORT SLAVERY!!
Leviticus25:44 Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.
25:45 Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.
YOU CAN BEAT YOUR SLAVES!! AS LONG AS HE/SHE DOESN'T DIE!
Exodus 21:20 And if a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely punished.
21:21 Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money.
REMEMBER THE LAW OF THE LORD IS "PERFECT"
