“They would tell the students, “We’re gonna water one. We’re gonna take care of one. We’re gonna leave the other one to God.” And of course the flowers that they took care of and watered and fed bloomed and flourished, and the ones that they left alone withered away and died. And they said, “See, the flowers left to God died. There is no god.”
Funny, you could do the same thing with the State. Leave one pot of flowers for the government to take care of and one pot for the class to take care of. I wager God will water the flowers far before the government gets there.
Better yet, leave a flower pot outside for God and a government worker, and see which one God takes care of.
