I'm more than willing to take the "blame" here. I answered K_J the only way I know how. My answer is the only answer I know because my life experience has proven it so.

All humans have "a thorn in their side" and many of them have prayed to have it removed. Some prayers are answered in the affirmative and some are not. Would that have been a BETTER answer? I was merely giving an example of the answer another human received.

Thanks for not locking the thread, though.
