You're almost certainly right. IIRC; the name derived from the Wizard of Oz.

Pah... what a load of old nonsene! I suppose God invented Meteorology as well did he?

meteorology

\Me`te*or*ol"o*gy\, n. [Gr. ?; ? + ? discourse: cf. F. m['e]t['e]orologie. See Meteor.] The science which treats of the atmosphere and its phenomena, particularly of its variations of heat and moisture, of its winds, storms, etc.


So, if this has been proved to be a science, then wtf is God doing messing around with such things

Only Michael Fish can really control the weather...

Go out on top of a hill during a thunderstorm wearing full plate armour and shout out "all gods are *******s" and see if you get smitted.
Isn't that the tried and tested experiment?

well apart from any heat/metal twisting caused by the bolt, you should actually be ok, tucked up inside your very own faraday cage

Proof of his existence or non-existence is not possible, ultimately it is a matter of faith, except for someone who has taken that step of faith, who would then tell you the spiritual revelation of god for them is so real that no 'proof' is necessary. I've never tried to prove he exists in this forum and I never will!

Neither does it mean he didn't, nor does it mean the Bible/religion is incorrect.

Just because I can't prove my position, and you can't prove yours, does not mean that you must therefore be right.
