A lost cellphone? Really?

This girl I know made a facebook post saying how blessed she was that she had her phone found in a Starbucks after she carelessly left it there the other day. People from her church community started liking it and everyone was saying to her that "God is good." "God really wanted to give you a surprise!" I don't resent people for any belief in a creator or whatnot...but I highly doubt any higher power really is going to give two shits about your iphone 6 being left in a Starbucks. It seems very small minded. But oh well.

I'm actually embarrased for people like that. When people say and actually believe that this or that happened because you prayed or God wanted it to happen. Ummm really? It's action that made it happen people, and other good people. Also, out of everyone i've met in my life, each person that was raised in a very God positive household, as in "god will give you what you need" home, they are truly messed up.

It's not about the iPhone 6 specifically. It's about the higher power actually giving a shit about your troubles big and small.

When I was in my early 30's, my mother convinced me that my (lucrative and fun) career was worthless and that my life's purpose should be to do nothing but stay at home with her and help her win fights with my dad (they're still married). I was riding the bus to a doctor's appointment and I placed my tuque in my lap. I was crying so much about that day's fight that my tuque slid off when I got up and I didn't notice. I frantically ran back to the bus, which was now parked, and desperately hammered on the door to get my tuque back. Things were bad enough at home that I wouldn't have been able to handle getting yelled at by my parents when I got home. So yeah, higher power or no, it is an incredible feeling of gratitude.

If there is a God, how can it allow Starbucks to exist?

I feel bad for people who believe in God. It's such a waste of brain cells.

Cell phones are evil.

It was Satan who found the phone for her.
