Yeah I do not get it.

Like this bridge collapse in Baltimore this morning. All over facebook, praying hands and people claiming they're going to pray for the victims. If you thought that worked, why wouldn't you pray that no one would be on the bridge at that moment? Why wouldn't you pray that no ships hit the pier of the bridge? Surely those two things would be within God's power.

I used to see an SUV near work that had a vinyl cut on the rear window that said something like, "so-and-so, 1978-1998 - God cured his pain and called him to heaven". In other words, no matter what, God comes out on top - either he's cured and look how great God is for curing him! Or he dies and look how great God is for ending his suffering!
