Why prayers are not answered
Hello.
For years I have been thinking about the reason why our prayers are not answered (without any special interpretations, as it will help next time).
In ancient times, thinking was very much mixed with imagination, so that an accepted prayer did not break the balance of free choice, and therefore prayers were more likely to be accepted, and yet there would not seem to be a real visible meeting to the observer.
In contrast, in our time, when the intellectual distinction between imagination and reality is very clear, if any prayer were to be accepted, it would appear to be a truly open invitation and would nullify the power of choice.
What do you think about this thought?
It is possible. But the opposite explanation is also possible: because involvement has decreased, the difference between imagination and reality (scientific thinking) has become more pronounced. And of course, it is also possible that both are incorrect. I have no way of knowing which of the explanations is correct.
I have suggested in the past that it is God’s policy to withdraw from the world, just as a parent withdraws from supervising their adolescent child.
I certainly don't think it's possible to verify one way or another with scientific (philosophical) tools, but it fits in very well with the rule that God rarely performs overt miracles.
The difficulty with your suggestion is our soul's desire to return to the leadership of God that existed at the time of the prophets. (This is what is commonly thought, although personally I am almost convinced that our state, which can be defined as knowledge, is greater than the state of the prophets, which was a more vague prophecy.)
And let's end with a joke
According to my words, a wonderful virtue has been found for receiving prayers, and that is, to mix imagination with reality, and indeed many have done so and been saved.
A kosher (with legumes) and a happy holiday.

I'm not sure this is my passion.
