Some people say God answers all prayers, just that sometimes the answer is no? Has anyone ever received a direct "no" in response to a prayer? Wouldn't it be more accurate to say the answer is ALWAYS "..."?

You said you were out of "anti-religious" questions. That is not possible for you. I don't believe God answers all prayers. Where did you come up with that notion? 5 “Also, when YOU pray, YOU must not be as the hypocrites; because they like to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the broad ways to be visible to men. Truly I say to YOU, They are having their reward in full. 6 You, however, when you pray, go into your private room and, after shutting your door, pray to your Father who is in secret; then your Father who looks on in secret will repay you. 7 But when praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words. 8 So, do not make yourselves like them, for God YOUR Father knows what things YOU are needing before ever YOU ask him. Matthew 6:5-8

i think God does respond to all prayers. i know that when i was in high school, i really really wanted to go to a certain college, but i didn't get in. this completely wrecked my world, and i ended up going to a different one. but i would not trade what happened to me for anything. i am so completely happy where i am right now, and i know that my life is altered from what it would have been. but i have recieved many positive responses to my prayers, usually when i stop thinking about silly things like passing a test, and more important things like what i will do with my life.
