In God's eyes we are all equal. He does not take sides.

Don't blame God because your chess is not as good as it should be.
(you will get a whack from a thunderbolt and these things hurt.)

The only person to blame is...........?

Equal in God's eyes, does not mean equal in our eyes. If we win or lose at chess has nothing to do with the issue.

As for you question, who is to blame? Why it's my opponent. If my opponent made the moves I wanted him to make, I'd have won the game every time!

"If we win or lose at chess has nothing to do with the issue. "

I thought the issue was does praying to God to help you win a game of chess?
(read the opening post again).

You lose at chess because you made the last blunder.

The issue I was talking about is "equal in God's eyes".

It isn't our blunders that cause us to lose. I've won lots of games where I blundered. It is when the opponent taking advantage of the blunder that causes us to lose. If the opponent doesn't see the blunder and doesn't take advantage of it, then the blunder can become a great move!

"If the opponent doesn't see the blunder and doesn't take advantage of it....."

Then he has made a blunder......and loses.

The last player to make a blunder losses.

Edit: I'll clarify 'blunder'. A game turning mistake.

If I were to ask MY God for help, it wouldn't be legal, as MY God is real. But for anyone who has beliefs contrary to mine, there god is false, and it is totally legal. 😉

Cayce was an amazing man, but most of his predictions were way off.
I channeled him once and played him, he sucked at chess, but beat me at backgammon and draughts.

Whatever God it is you believe in, all created us as equals.

So giving chess adivce to one would not make it fair on the other,
it would be unequal.

However, if you find yourself playing for your soul v Satan then the
Big Fellah might offer some assistance.

He loves it when you check ...[text shortened]... he Devil gooes potty when that happens.
Apparently you can hear the bellowing all over Hell.
Sure he created us as equals, but those who follow his wisdom are usually blessed with numerous gifts are they not? Who says gifts are not such as an epiphany?

Third party assistance? Can't prove that one lol.
