Question by : When atheists say they used to believe but their prayers weren’t answered, what were those prayers about?
Name SPECIFIC prayers that you claim weren’t answered.

Also, ask yourself if these prayers were unnecessary and unrealistic.
Reginald: I am sorry, but FREE WILL is the answer.
PMS: The Bible says not to ask for signs so this is why this prayer was not undeniably answered. It could have been answered, but you just didn’t notice it because God is subtle and he works in ways that we do not fully understand.
Saul: Some (not all) atheists say they used to believe. I am ONLY asking atheists who say they used to believe.

Best answer:

Answer by I have PMS and a gun
“Dear God. Please give me some kind of sign, ANY kind of sign, that you are up there. Amen.”

Edit: I could debate you on this for hours but honestly, it’s not worth the effort to me because I’m not changing my mind and I know you aren’t either, so why bother. I spent years agonizing over the existence of God. I walked away and moved on a long time ago.
