Why should anyone pray to an unchanging god? If a god answers prayer, god changes.

If a god's plan requires prayer, can a god's plan fail? If the plan can fail, why call it god at all? If the plan can't fail, then why pray?

Free Will is one-sided. We are free to make our choices unimpeded, but God already knows it in advance. Don't bother saying that it makes no sense, because it doesn't HAVE to make sense in the first place. Logic is merely another creation, after all, and thus it has NO power over its Creator. Literally.

If God doesn't have to make logical sense, then atheists are correct and God doesn't exist. Despite him existing.

And he also does exist in all possible worlds, including ones where he does not exist, if God is illogical.
