| The lord works in mysterious ways or so the saying goes.
The bible both included stories of prayers answered and prayers apparently ignored. Did Job HAVE to go through losing everything and his wife turned to salt? The list goes on. It's pretty well made clear by example that prayer does not always equal a response.
A response wouldn't make sense in the context of heaven and hell either. If God responded to every prayer in a way that everyone could see then what sane person would doubt God's existence anyways.
What do you say to an atheist who sneezes?
