And you know this.... how?
Did you even TRY praying for your imaginary deity to fix your furnace? Maybe if you asked he would magically repair your furnace and save you the time, trouble and expense of getting it fixed yourself.
But, of course, we both know what would happen if you did this. Nothing. So you must have a ready explanation that works for you. Even if it has no foundation in reality.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
