milk jug prayer

The prospect of answered prayer is generally relegated to any one of three possible responses: Affirmative (your selected mountain is now relocated), Negative (nope, negative, try again later) and perhaps (you're not quite worthy yet, hold please, etc)
Realistically, there are NO OTHER POSSIBLE responses to each and every given prayer offered to each and every god.
In prayed for rain last night.
Really? Why?
Well. We really need some rain for our crops to grow.
Mmm, I see. Well, prayed for it NOT to rain because my daughter's wedding is this weekend.
The good thing is that the whole process is fatally flawed; my milk jug prayer has the same odds as yours, sucker!
