Consider the following chart:

God doesn't want a strong leader + Man prays = No strong leader.
God doesn't want a strong leader + Man doesn't pray = No strong leader.
God wants a strong leader + Man prays = Strong leader.
God wants a strong leader + Man doesn't pray = Strong leader.

1)In any of the instances above, did praying actually change God from doing what He was already planning on?

2) So what good is praying then?

3) What truth are Catholics strayed from? If your answer is "The truth that -=Baptist=- or some other Christian God is better", let me tell you that's just not going to happen.

4) You still didn't say "But Your will be done" in the poem. That's still the whole point.

5) Can you answer a question without babbling irrelevantly? What if it's a question from God? What about this one:

"Are you still so dull?" - Jesus, Mt 15:16
