I can't ask "God" anything because he doesn't exist!

I've prevented many natural disasters! Every night I put on my magic hat and wave the Twig of Prevention. This protects Canada from hurricanes. It obviously works, because I don't even know when Canada last suffered a hurricane. Can you imagine how many disasters I've prevented? Canadians should be thanking me, but they never do.
