[2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.]
I have a 90% success rate. I am one of the few people who know how to pray.

So you are one of the few people who know that it is best to only pray for things that have a high probability of happening,

If your god existed, and he was just, why wouldn't he damn your arse to hell for apparently keeping this important, humanity-saving information for yourself?
Knowing how to pray = praying for things that you're pretty sure are going to happen anyway.
Either that or adding the "not my will, but your will be done" at the end of the prayer so that a non-answer is still an answer.
"I am one of the few people who know how to pray."
By asking for the world to exist the next day, the fridge to keep running and everything else that will happen anyway.
The same way phychics claim 90% accuracy
Few people? If Silviiro is a Christian, the instructions are given by Jesus right in Matthew:
6:9 After this manner therefore pray ye: "Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
6:10 "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as [it is] in heaven. (etc., etc.)
Does Silviiro have some secret that Jesus and the rest of Christendom aren't aware of?
In the words of Edward Current, "If the god of the bible exists, may he do nothing at all -pauses for a moment, nothing happens- Checkmate, Atheists!"
Yeah, yeah, yeah, everyone claims they're the only ones who know how to drive, too.
"I am one of the few people who know how to pray."
In other words, he's very good at deceiving himself.
Since this is posted on Gamefaqs, I'm going to assume that this is just e-peen wagging, along the same lines as "My Death Knight just totally PWNED 3 paladins in the Battlegrounds all by himself! Lol n00b L2P!"
If you had a record of 1 job in 10,000 done successfully where you work, you wouldn't be working there very long. Maybe not even long enough to get to 10,000 screwed-up attempts for statistical purposes. Your perfect god is a perfect fuck-up.
"I have a 90% success rate. I am one of the few people who know how to pray."
In that case then, the ancient Egyptians, with their belief in & praying to Amun-Ra (and that espoused by Akhenaten: Aten Worship, thus the basis of Monotheism , no less) had a 100% success rate then.
Every time I open my kitchen cupboard, I find a nice little stockpile of packets of Noodles (mostly Curry flavour). Must be as a result of my 100% success rate in praying to His Noodliness The Flying Spaghetti Monster then; nah, can't be due to my buying the 15p packets from Tesco's/Asda (certainly the reduced ones that sometime crop up in the 'Reduced Items' section; broken up, and repriced to 10-7p), eh?! [/hyper-sarcasm]
RAmen.
"I have a 90% success rate. I am one of the few people who know how to pray."
Let me guess, you only pray for things that have a 90% chance of happening.
Confused?
