Sire, je n'ai pas eu besoin de cette hypothèse

Religion, or God, is an utterly useless hypothesis. What single thing, ever, could it possibly help us explain or understand? I'm in good health? God must have wanted it to be so. I'm sick? Why of course, God decided I should be sick. Have two feet? The Almighty must have his reasons for granting them to me. Had I three feet, idem. Etc. If you're looking for answers to anything, you might as well toss a coin.
