  Just enough to keep people dependent on joke-hova all the time. Why didn't joke-hova instead provide enough for the whole month with some left at the end? Could it be that thing is that stingy and does not want people to have anything beyond the absolute bare necessities, yet wants continuous praise for that?

  Perhaps getting a real job, and not going on that wasteful trip, would have resulted in a better financial situation. I wonder how many people joke-hova is going to let down, including those who made the donation to this parasite, when they get into need. Such as, for every witless that gets the exact amount of their bill (and never more), there could be hundreds getting foreclosed on, evicted, repo'd, or have their electricity turned off because they could not come up with the money. And joke-hova doesn't give a fxxx. Or, those who, in their old age, reap the benefits of cutting way back on their income so they could pious-sneer for 40 years only to end up destitute and they get nothing.

  Mark Twain put it very well about how those miracles work:

  "If science exterminates a disease which has been working for God, it is God that gets the credit, and all the pulpits break into grateful advertising-raptures and call attention to how good he is! Yes, he has done it. Perhaps he has waited a thousand years before doing it. That is nothing; the pulpit says he was thinking about it all the time. When exasperated men rise up and sweep away an age-long tyranny and set a nation free, the first thing the delighted pulpit does is to advertise it as God's work, and invite the people to get down on their knees and pour out their thanks to him for it. And the pulpit says with admiring emotion, "Let tyrants understand that the Eye that never sleeps is upon them; and let them remember that the Lord our God will not always be patient, but will loose the whirlwinds of his wrath upon them in his appointed day."

  They forget to mention that he is the slowest mover in the universe; that his Eye that never sleeps, might as well, since it takes it a century to see what any other eye would see in a week; that in all history there is not an instance where he thought of a noble deed first, but always thought of it just a little after somebody else had thought of it and done it. He arrives then, and annexes the dividend."

  "If it turns out that there is a God, I don't think that he's evil. But the worst that you can say about him is that basically he's an underachiever ." - Woody Allen
