thanks, god.

[fr0d0]

It would probably remedy the situation if people of religious convictions would actually think before they thank God directly for his intentional saving of their lives. While they aren't explicitly stating that they're thankful for other people dying, they are (however unintentionally) implying that God chose to save them but not the others. Because if God had an involvement in saving them (which is what some of these people actually believe) then he must have also chosen not to save the others.

You're assuming a lot though, and nothing backs up your logic, apart from superstition.

God is nothing to do with it. You just don't define God accurately enough.

How should you be able to define something that doesn't exist?

Why should you comment on it if you don't think it exists? I have faith that it does, therefore I have grounds to explore it.

You're talking about a specific definition of God, and aren't following the reasoning for that definition. Whether it exists or not is besides the point.
