Of course we are not going to have FULL understanding, but that does not mean we can have NO understanding. Like I said, even ants have some "understanding" of us. They try to avoid us, if possible (within their means) for reasons only an ant will know.
The primitive man "understood" that the rumbling volcano was an "angry" god and that some serependitious act of people would "satisfy" himon occasion. Sometime, their "prayers" were "answered," and sometimes they weren't.

Sometime, their "prayers" were "answered," and sometimes they weren't. Just to review and make sure we're talking about the same thing, you are saying that today's Christian has the exact same level of justification for praying to the Christian God as the primitive man did for praying to the volcano god?
