So today I had a science test for which I was unprepared for, I didnt study and I was getting really nervous at lunch time (science is last period) so out of desperation I asked God if he can delay the test. Not expecting anything to happen I walk into classe, and can you believe it? The teacher says the test is being moved to thursday. He didnt even give a real reason why. This isnt the first time somthing like this has happend after asking God for a favour. Do you Guys think it was just a coincidence or somthing else?

Coincidence because:

1. god doesn't exist

2. If he did I'm sure he would have more important things to do than move your science test.

Coincidence, I'm sure God has more important things than your science test. But, there is a slight chance that it was God and he had some spare time.

Well if you believe in God, than you believe he is everywhere and infintly powerful. So to say "He would have more important things to do" wouldn't make sense, since, if He does exist, then He can do everything at the same time.

But to answer your question :P Donno. Just study next time

You dont, and that is why it is called faith, and it works the exact same way the other way around.

And it was coincidence. Think about it, wouldn't your teacher have moved the test BEFORE you had a chance to ask God anything?

No, so I guess you cant prove he doesnt and I cant prove he does, and for the people saying he has better things to do, take into consideration that if it there is a God, then he can do whatever whenever however, meaning he can deal with every issue facing the world at the same time. He doesnt have to but who knows maybe he decided to give me a break.

It is an opinion. Why when I say something that is my opinion on gamespot do I have to write "in my opinion" or people start going "OMG U DUNT AV PROOF". You knew it was opinion, I knew it was opinion, so why the hell do I have to write "in my opinion" at the end of it?

If it is A, then self-explanatory. If it is B, then this finally makes sense. If it is C, then so does this.

If God would move a science test but not stop atrocities such as genocides, he's not worthy of worship, is he?

Miracles are really a catch-22 for religion, if you think about it.

Lol, me.

To the question, I think it was just coincidence. I mean, the teacher must have decided to move the test before you asked God the favor.

Coincidence.

Since your test was last period, something may have happened from an earlier period that made him move it. You can't have a test for one period on one day, and that same test for a different period on another day. It's not fair to the students.

Maybe God was too busy rescheduling science tests to help her
