You are God. You get the following prayers at the same time. Which one do you answer [View all]

I mean, let's be honest. God probably get at least more than 10 prayer requests an hour (I can't even get through to my local radio station's Lunch Request Line at lunch ((I have a bunch of songs that I'd like them to play to get me through my day)) and they boast that they have 4 lines coming in. I'm going to guess that God is more popular than the station that plays the Greatest Hits of the 80's, 90's and Today).

If you were God, and got the following prayer requests ALL at once, which would take priority for you? Maybe this comes more naturally to people like me...people who are gifted at seeing patterns. Also, you may not know this but I'm a nurse, so I'm used to triaging people and prioritizing their whiny-ass needs.

So, good atheists...you're god. Which prayer gets answered first?
