I always wondered how insurance companies pay out on claims of flood, tornado, hurricane damage, etc. to people who are atheists.

If you do not believe in God, how can you receive compensation for damage resulting from so-called ‘acts of God’??

Maybe insurance companies can address that.

"We hear of the conversion of water into wine at the marriage in Cana as of a miracle.
But this conversion is, through the goodness of God, made every day before our eyes.
Behold the rain which descends from heaven upon our vineyards;
there it enters the roots of the vines, to be changed into wine;
a constant proof that God loves us, and loves to see us happy.
The miracle in question was only performed to hasten the operation,
under circumstances of present necessity, which required it."

-Benjamin Franklin (Letter to Abbé Morellet 1779)
