I believe that our government has orchestrated a society based on fear - They just took a different approach. Americans are scared of everything because of media and lack of information. People hear a story about something happening to one or two people and they must get the vaccine, or pill, or insurance policy, or alarm, or whatever. It is amazing to me that people get scared about something that there is a very low chance of but get in their cars and drive 70-80 miles an hour and think nothing of it.

Which, of course, does not explain why God is letting me experience His acknowledgement of my prayers.
Clearly you separated yourself from God, publicly denied Him, and presently invest a material amount of your time on Christian forums exercising a negative volition making false assertions about Him.
You're shipwrecked (1 Timothy 1:19), in a spiritually bankrupt and deceived state, with a darkened heart (Ephesians 4:18) and it's clear as day to those of us in communion with God.
Yet even in your lost, deceived, spiritually bankrupt state; you serve the purposes of God fulfilling the role of an antagonist... a role you chose for yourself and presently live out somewhat obsessively.
My relationship with God continues to be strengthened in times of adversity... the very thing that led you to dispose of yours.
My tribulation was worse than your own. It was a perfect storm that struck suddenly and went on for years leaving me in poverty, debt, facing homelessness, serious illness, physical deformity, terrible pain, abandonment by friends, and all of the intense emotions that go along with living through such a grueling experience.
But I didn't abandon God as you chose too. I exercised my will and continued pursuing Him. That's when it happened. Subsequently, He supernaturally healed the most serious medical issue (the other remains but is manageable), began to assist me in rebuilding my career (a process that continues), restored my family to me (mission completed successfully), and led me to a church where I made new friends and experience Him work supernaturally as if it is common it happens so often.
It is from my present position of knowing that I watch you make false assertion after false assertion about God from your deceived state as the sand of time flows through the hourglass.
"But for the cowardly and u ἄπιστος, ον and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death" -Revelations 21:8.
Yet while you live, God's offer of reconciliation remains (2 Timothy 2:13).
