I get the impression some of these folks wouldn't trust God to sit in on a game of poker.

I like this story:

There’s a story told about former Yankees catcher Yogi Berra that illustrates. It seems it was the bottom of the ninth, with two out and the score tied up. The batter from the opposing team comes up to bat, and when he does, he makes the sign of the cross in the dust of home plate, and, presumably, offers a prayer, asking to hit one out of the park.

Berra, a practicing Catholic himself, bends over and brushes off the plate. “Listen,” he says, “Why don’t we just let God watch the game?”
