I found the titel "God strikes Bible belt" somehow ... fitting.

If you think about how waste the Universe is, billions of galaxies each with billions of stars and myriads of planets, and when a god created all that, how could he possibly care for some planet named earth, let alone the sorrows and hopes of particular people.
But then "he" created man after his own appearance, or so texts say that man wrote.
Now did he create earth, or the whole universe ? Is he also god for an intelligent octopus at Aldebaran, or for an intelligent hovering sphere ?
Isn't it a bit self-centered, to think that he'd be entirely there for "us".

(Personally, i think it's plate tectonics, but then it's just me.)
