Of all the arguments religious believers have ever come up with, that has to be one of the emptiest and lamest. What does it even mean? Nothing. Just empty bafflegab, like so much of religion.

However, I will agree that if one is pining to fill the God-shaped hole in one's heart, one will have no trouble finding a God-babbling huckster to empty one's wallet.
