    It’s relevant to the folks who believe in divine intervention, isn’t it?

      The folks who believe in divine intervention don’t care about what actually happens in reality in any case, so no, it’s not relevant to them, either.

        I would think that the difference between it being a bullet vs a piece of glass would be the difference between divine intervention or not to many of them.

          If logic worked on religious people, then there wouldn’t be religious people. They will just say the bullet WOULD’VE killed him, but god stopped it and only hurt him with glass. God can’t be proven or disproven, so those that want to see divine intervention always will.

          If you’re someone who’s going to claim divine intervention, it’s to reinforce your own beliefs, and message to the people who hear you that you hold those beliefs. Glass vs. bullet isn’t going to matter.
