Oh, and I should add, if it doesn't start reliably, I will go shopping for another truck.
Can you say the same about your faith, prof? If your prayers aren't answered by your god(s), do you try other options? No, you cannot. And that is perhaps the most important difference: when my truck doesn't start, I don't paint my face in ash and do penance; I don't beat myself with chains in order to demonstrate my humility before a god; I don't climb into the confessional and beg forgiveness.
I get out my toolkit and fix it -- or I move on to another vehicle that will get me where I want to go.
When's the last time you've shopped for a vehicle, prof?
