It wasn't but ty Mister Agenda. That verse references Moses and the water f om the rock story in Exodus 17. If you read it, it's about people quarreling with each other. In it's broader sense, both verses state not to test whether God is there or not. I must admit to not following the Bible on this every time, as I'm very stubborn and inquisitive. I believe Jesus used it in rebutting Satan for asking him to cast himself to see if the angel's would save him. Not putting God into a forced promise, especially for selfish gain, I would say is the overarching point. It doesn't say to go about ignorantly smelling flowers and being blissfully ignorant and stupid, which is often the tact this argument takes (Not saying it is here, just an observation).
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
