Ctholics may respond to unanwered prayers by becoming agnostic (not sure about god) and may believe God does not want to answer their rayers. God does not answer selfish prayers but if it was a good prayer then he would answer it in his own time to fit in with his own prayers and they way he wans to answer the prayer. Catholics may think God will answer the prayers straight away and give them a sign or just simply fix their problems straight away. But that is not how God answers prayers but instead will answer them in his own time the way he wants. An example of a selfish prayer: e.g. praying for wealth or love, this won't be answer by God because it is selfish. But an example of a prayer that will be answered is: e.g. Praying for sick one's.

Summary:

-Selfish Prayers

-Becoming AGNOSTIC

-Not answering prayers the way they would like.

Catholic AnswerThe only way that a Catholic should respond to the problem of "unanswered prayers" is by talking with their spiritual director or confessor and realizing that there are no such things as "unanswered prayers", God always answers prayers. The problem that people have to realize is that He often says "no" as we ask wrongly, or ask for the wrong things. However, when He says "no" He always gives us something better than we asked for. Our job is to align ourselves with His Will. So if we think that God isn't answering our prayers, we have a lot of work to do so that we may recognize His Will, and grow in prayer so that we may conform ourselves to His Will. To think that God is not answering your prayers and so to leave the Church or become agnostic is just compounding the problem.
