As to why I pray: This is how I look at it - if someone is a true friend, then you would want to talk to them on a regular basis - to tell them about your day, ask how to handle a situation, or just say thanks for something they did for you. So prayer is my way to stay close to my best friend - God. Some people only pray in their time of need. But say you needed $50 - who would be more likely to give it to you - someone you never talk to and barely know or someone you talk to on a regular basis and is your best friend? God does not force you to believe - that's a choice each of us has to make. I do think God speaks to each of us - and wants us to believe. The question is do we chose to listen or not. My take on mike3k's comment: Just because I do not know the answer yet does not mean God does not exist. Keep in mind that there is also no proven explanation on how everything came to be if God did not create it either - only speculation and theories with a lot of unanswered questions as well. And you can ask the same question about those theories too - where did the first atom/cell/matter or whatever come from? As for me, when I look at how complex everything is - humans, animals, nature, earth, etc, how everything works together, and how much we still do not understand, I can't help but think that someone with far more knowledge than anyone on Earth created it - and that it all just didn't happen on its own. To give you something to consider about the day question, because God created the Earth, would He not have known how long a day was going to be? I'll be the first to admit that I don't know all the answers - and I too have some questions on things in the Bible that I don't understand right now. Could it be that something written that long ago may not be interpreted the same way today - or did it got lost in the translation over time? I don't know but that still does not stop me from believing. Again, this has been my personal opinion and how I choose to live my life. You have to make your own decisions - and I also do not mean to offend you or anyone that does not believe as I do. Here is my personal opinion in response to your post.

If you ask that question, they'll change the subject since nothing in the bible (or any other religious manuscripts) will explain that. I like explanations that don't involve magic or faith.

I could name a few other osscaisions, but you gave me one with Rogers, so maybe another blogs post. I find it extremely rude and unprofessional that they would say that they're closing and to hang up on them. I went into Bell once to ask about their cell phone plans and they asked me if I was over 18. A POTENTIAL CUSTOMER FOR LIFE, AND YOU TRY TO DEFER ME BECAUSE OF MY AGE. It just pisses me off. I helped myself to learning what the plans were, but I had already made my decision not to go with them. Bell is the worst for customer service.
