It all went to hell in a handbasket when he started answering people's prayers and gave them what they want, right?
How about if he'd ignored every single prayer - some of the things people asked for would have happened by chance, others would have had to accept that god had 'other plans' or worked in mysterious ways. Those who wanted answers would have come up with them on their own and thanks god for the 'advice'.
Given that the most sensible thing to do was nothing at all - god might as well not bother existing. What does this say about religion?

Adia - that was a holy war, wasn't it? If Bender had ignored them what would they have been fighting over? I'm not convince by your point at all. Enough about wars God started - tell me one he stopped.

Alas, the point was too devastating and theists who saw it realised it totally disproved all the evidence of their sky-fairy.
Is this the end of religion?

It's the same like that episode of Futurama, when Bender become God of the midgets. When he answered prayers, people started depending on him. When he totally ignored them, they went nuclear and killed each other.

That we don't talk enough about unanswered prayers.
Consider the following moral dilema,
