Platitudes That Help Christians Retain Their Faith

RE: Platitudes That Help Christians Retain Their Faith
Yeah, "the Lord works in mysterious ways" is a very common one, that is similar to many of the ones from your OP. It's nothing but a hand wave to "answer" the hard questions in a way that doesn't actually answer anything.

This is why parody religions are so great. You talk about the FSM, and when they call it stupid, you go on about your faith in his mysterious ways.
