I wasnt talking about predetermination and free will actually. What an illogical comparison. There is a physical realtionship between a star and its satellites(the earth in this case) incidentally the sun does not rise. The effect of the Earth turning causes the viewer to think the sun is rising. Could a similar sort of illusion be responsible for the cause and effect misunderstanding of prayer the religious hold?
