A god sending hurricanes to make mortals believe in him is a sick, cruel psychopath and should be locked away in a psychiatry (where he probably escaped from anyway). I wish he would not send hurricanes, but reason.

Anyhow, making one's own little chatter with god a public matter reminds me of this little passage in the Bible:

5 And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. (Matthew 6, 5-8)

Or in short, geetrue:
Keep thy religion to thyself.
