Also to try to explain. The Bible is a book. Spiderman is a book. Should we believe what is in the Bible because it’s a cherished book? Well by that logic we should believe in spiderman. As Carl Sagan famously said “extraordinary claims require extraordinary proofs”
Let’s grok “God gifted this to me” (even though nobody asked)
1) God is handing out arguments for atheism?!
2) My only credentials are “internet rando”. So when I say finding this was “an act of God” if there’s a way to CHEAT to find this you can safely assume I used it
3) The search space is not “All of imgflip” I was specifically mining 11 year old memes and this happened to be an 11 year old meme
4) The beam width is unspecified. I felt like I only looked at a few images but my history probably says otherwise
5) This was self-discovering. I didn’t have to know it was there to find. It knew what it had.
Whether finding this should still be attributed to God I leave as an exercise to the reader

I mean... Stan Lee is pretty much Jesus at this point. xD
I look at all these Jesus-and-a-verse memes popping up and I think to myself “these guys are patting themselves on the back for doing Jesus a solid but they have NO IDEA what they’re unlocking”. I’m sure you’re all like that scene in V for Vendetta “My Turn”
Also, wishing you well while I present this quibble, some Christians in antiquity had something other than the book. I do not know what. They had several collections of writings and declared from scratch “these writings are your infallible Bible”
Finger fumble. “These writings are your infallible Bible” and “these other writings are con men trying to pull a fast one with fake scriptures”. They couldn’t use the Bible to tell the two apart; they were making the Bible. AND not all Christians everywhere agree where the “cut” should be made. But the Bible itself can’t tell you; you either think for yourself or blindly follow someone else.
