(June 4, 2010 at 2:36 pm)theophilus Wrote: Both the atheist in the first story and the man who had faith in God failed to recognize that the natural events they observed were the result of God's actions.

But why is that God? Or if it's merely nature and nothing more, why call it God? If you go around calling Nature "God" all the time, people might think you believe in a supernatural deity as opposed to merely nature. So it's rather misleading. Better to just call nature "Nature" really.
