I'm not saying every theist is the same, I'm opening up for discussion trends I have observed. I'm sorry if that's not acceptable to you.
Yes. I would characterize your description of the Theist thinking in that thread as an absurd caricature. Theists I'd say nearly unanimously don't involve God in their street crossing. And the vast majority don't go to the doctors "Just in case."
Maybe someone with a severe mental illness, or maybe one of those snake handler type people might, I guess. But Theists look both ways before they cross the street so they don't get hit by a car. That's it. Anything else you are trying to project onto the thinking is about you, not reality.
