Default Re: An experiment to prove or disprove the power of prayer

If the Boss is Jewish, and knowledgeably so, he will definitely turn down this offer. Why, because it violates the Word of God, so, even if he prayed, why would God answer that prayer, when it directly contradicts His instructions?

Deuteronomy 6:16 (New International Version)

16 Do not test the LORD your God

It seems odd that god would command us not to take steps to verify his existence. If my belief in god is supposed to be completely based on faith, then how do I chose between the Jewish god and other gods who I am supposed to accept purely based on faith?

According to notready, the bible says that if you truly seek god with faith, you will find him. I suppose the Jews and the rest who seek god are not truly seeking him, according to this.
