Those are my thoughts exactly. You could imagine how I told the story when I was a Christian. As an atheist, I sort of struggle to have a point while telling that story, other than overcoming the minefield of mental fallacies associated with coincidence.
Ooo, I just noticed you said sign-maker; an important distinction. Perhaps the metaphor could be something like "What at first appears to be a sign from god, is nothing more than a man-made craft." But, you know, flowery wording and what not.

I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
