How about those six million people murdered in Nazi prison camps. Why didn't any of them pray?

Really,truly, believing that an all powerful supernatural being that's a lot smarter than you are can be convinced by your groveling to change his mind about anything important is the height of arrogance and vanity. To even entertain the notion that he cares whether you pray to him or not is to give yourself almost equal standing with Him, He doesn't need for you to tell or ask him anything. He has already planned everything and/or knows what's going to happen and should happen until the end of time, if he exists? Do you think you know something he doesn't? Have you lost it? You have no rational reason to believe that you know anything at all.
The chances of you being right about God or the afterlife, etc. is zip, zero. Maybe not that good.
