Yes I believe in God...just not that God...usually throws them. Or, if you were God couldn't you come up with a better plan than this. It all comes down to expectations. What did you expect a God to be or how would you define God. 2 fish are swimming in the ocean when a 3rd one swims up and says "ok guys, where is all this water you keep telling me exists...that you say both contains and sustains us all? Huh? Huh? I don't see it. Where is it? You're just making it up huh?" To which the other 2 fish reply..."What were you expecting?"
