-and yet, you tell us that this is exactly what you did and you claim that your god responded to it. Mystifying, really. This is why people have enduring questions. Because the answers we get from one breath to the other never make a lick of sense.
If you believed, or wanted us to believe, that you couldn't actually do this and didn't think it could work - then why tell a story about doing this and having it work? Further...if you really believed this sort of shit wouldn't work wouldn't you..then, even if those events you described before actually happened - and I'm sure they didn't- come to the conclusion that they were unrelated..not because you're a skeptic, but because you don't think that's how god works?
Which version of your belief do you want us to accept as genuine and accurate? The first, the second, or the third - where your beliefs are genuinely incoherent?
