Great analysis ruined by the usual useless "solution" of prayer. As if praying had ever determined the result of a war. If this is their only defence, Christians will be annihilated.
It is this kind of otherworldly superstitions that are paralysing far too many. How convenient to accept defeat in this life and wait for the prize in the next one. Great material for fairy tales.
There are many who pay government and religion, unrealistically hoping to be taken care of in this life and the next, without taking an active role in ensuring their own destiny.
However, the quest for the holy grail of true life is not a passive one.
Nor is it an otherworldly superstition or a fairy tale, no matter how many may think it is.
The brave and the true, who fight the good fight and persevere to the end regardless, will drink from the cup of eternal life.
I am not omnipotent - I know what I know - I do not know what I cannot know.
I know that prayer is not a useless activity.
I think that prayer is certainly likely to have influenced, if not determined, the outcome of more than one war.
Wars are not just physical; or soulish - the mental, moral and emotional experience of the individual; wars also have a spiritual dimension - prayer is active in this realm and can be very powerful.
I think that there is life after physical death, so whether prayer saves one from physical death or not, is not decisive with respect to eternal life.
No doubt the belief in Mars and Jupiter helped the Romans be brave in battle. However they still FOUGHT, that is the difference. They didn't sit and wait for their gods to vanquish the enemy.
Those who believe in prayer fight in the physical realm as well as the spiritual.
I can see no evidence that those who pray are otherwise inactive.
On the contrary, prayer warriors are very powerful fighters in my experience.
Tyrannical regimes always go after the christians - those who pray - because they know that these people are powerful spiritual and physical freedom fighters.
Oh I've met plenty. And it should be obvious that at the very least their constant prayers haven't helped them at all to see through the deception. Amazing how ineffective the fantasies you are demanding me to respect are. You are lacking respect for reality.
Pray from the Heart.
Pray from your True Heart for Divine Guidance.
Accept and follow the Divine Guidance in all things and in all thoughts and understanding of Reality.
The Divine is known by Love, Compassion and Wisdom.

Possibly, but their souls will be intact and saved.
What a convenient cowardly take.
The path of life is not a convenient one.
Only the brave overcome death and possess eternal life.

If that makes you happy keep believing it, just don't expect your fantasies to defeat the enemies.

You see no evidence of people praying and doing nothing else? You've never met a jabbed Christian? Perhaps you live in a cave.
How many "jabbed chrisitans" have you met?
How do you know they are doing nothing else but pray?
Do you know what all christians - jabbed or unjabbed - are doing and why?
Are you omnipotent?
Unjustified generalisations to discredit lack integrity.
Rudeness is not appreciated.
Mutual respect is required.
