I know you don't.I don't think yo see at all
But this analogy doesn't work. Because I am not aware of God.If you are married and live separate lives in the same house - don't talk, don't share, don't work together you are still aware of the other person living with you.
First of all, congratulations on your son's recovery and on the good things in your life.Would I notice if prayers didn't get answered. I think I would be dead about 30 years ago. My son would have died when he was three years old. Miracles do happen now and then and when they do they are life altering and can be a matter of life and death.
Second...but this is very interesting. So Christians are saying that God does answer prayers, at least sometimes, and that God does work miracles.
So technically, this should be observable. No, I'm not trying to put God in a test tube or nail Him down in any way. But if God answers prayers from Christians, then it should be at least technically possible to identify patterns from which God's existence can be inferred.
For example, Christians should be luckier than atheists and people of other religions. Yes, God sometimes answers prayers with "no" or "later" - but sometimes he does answer prayers yes, right? And atheists aren't praying at all, and people of other religions are praying to the wrong God or gods, so the Christian God wouldn't answer their prayers, would He?
So, wouldn't we expect to see, statistically, that Christians are luckier than non-Christians?
And do we?
And also, you mentioned miracles. I have encountered very few things which could be classed as a "miracle" in the sense of "an impossible thing happening" (not as in the sense of great good luck). So (a) do miracles actually exist? And (b) do they only happen to Christians, or do they happen to unbelievers as well?
As I said earlier: very interesting.
