| 18. Bishop Spong says something similar |

A retired bishop of the Episcopal church. When his wife was sick with cancer, the entire diocese prayed for her. He imagined that if the janitor at one of those churches had a sick wife, the whole parish would pray for her and that would be it. Would God be swayed more by all the prayers for the bishop's wife than the fewer prayers for the janitor's wife?
I consider myself an agnostic. I've never seen any evidence of anything supernatural, but I'd consider it the height of arrogance to state that I was 100% positive there was no God.
