or a fully stocked medical chest. You CANNOT have both (yes, it's called hypothetical, OK?)

Which do you choose and why?

Unlimited prayer for me. I have experienced healing so I know this would be available to me.

Why do you ask questions like this? You already have an answer. You are clearly not open minded, but rather set in your ways and beliefs. I'm sure it is only done to laugh and prove some point of yours that you believe is right. If one were deserted on a desert island, it would also be hypothetical to say that since in order to pray, all one would have to do is open his/her mouth or even pray in his/her head where it is unheard (so no one would know if he/she were praying or not anyway since it is a deserted island) - so you can clearly have both even if you say that you can't. For the record, who would really want a stocked medical chest anyway? A stocked food chest sounds better, which I would take but would still pray because there is no one on the deserted island that could stop me or even know.

Even a hypothetical question has to have some basis in reality to be answered.

In reality, nothing could prevent me from praying anytime and anywhere I want...the only thing I could hypothetically imagine that would prevent it would be brain death and if that's the case, the medical chest wouldn't do me any good.

Now if you asked if I could be guaranteed that God would answer my prayers or have a medical kit, I'd take the prayer...but if I was on a desert island, nothing could stop me from praying...that would be a given so I'd take the medical chest!

East: Unlimited prayer. God will either give me the wisdom to make the medicines I need (hey, the Professor did it!), or He will bring me up to heaven to live with Him eternally, and I won't be stuck on a deserted island anymore.

I would choose a fully stocked medicine cabinet and LIMITED prayer.

Why? Because you left that option open......

Prayer, if you believe, you won't need a medical chest. Matthew, 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you, seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you. God Bless YOU!!

Not sure why you cant pray and have medicine, but I would say the prayer. Its a matter of the eternal life, not our existance on earth.

I'd like prayer and medicine. That is what is great about prayer. People can't take that away from you.

Some "hypothetical" questions/games aren't worth playing.

I would choose not to play.

I would go with food and drink as my choice,in lieu of either, actually (just in case I get sick of berries, can't hunt, and realize that the seawater is killing me)
