I guess that in Christianity, it's subtle to discern what's in an individual's power and what's not, albeit everything is ultimately in the god's power.

So, in the face of hardship, does an individual only passively pray, or does he both pray and get up and do something about it?

The above is my primitive thoughts.

另外一面，佛教極其講究“因果律”，貌似一切操之在我，也貌似根本無必要向佛祈禱。與上面的基督教的看法極不同。
