Well...Let me put it this way.

If there is a prayer answering god, then it seems pretty
obvious that this prayer was answered.

If there isn't, then this was just an odd coincidence.

All my previous prayers weren't answered.  The ones I
made after the "answered" prayer that asked god to
show me that the "answered" one was being wrongly
interpreted or that it wasn't from the "true" god
weren't answered (did you catch that?).

I don't deny the power of things "unseen", so maybe
it was an answer.  Maybe an answer from a god that only
answers theological/spiritual questions and not prayers
for healings.  I don't know...but you really shouldn't
look a gift-horse in the mouth... %> ;> :p

This reminds me of the story of a minister
who wrote in the margin of his sermon notes,
"Weak argument here.  Shout louder."
