More proof of the fantasy of God

A sad story to recount from last weekend. A pastor at a Baptist church in Waco, TX was electrocuted to death while performing a baptism.

Not withstanding the sorrow of the loss of this pastor's life, I wonder if anyone would bother to ask, why would God allow such a thing to happen? Why couldn't God protect this pastor from electrocution during a "holy" seromony?

To me, this is one extreme example of the fantasy of belief in God - no God exists, therefore, no being could stop the laws of nature from electrocuting someone who mixes water with electric current no matter how "holy" or secular the person.

Also, this should be a wake up call to those religous zealots who don't bother to learn enough science to realize that electric currents and water don't mix.
