You'd think that if God had decreed that she build a pipeline for natural gas, he could have at least supplied some specs, the way he did with the ark. It would have saved the people of Alaska tons of money in bidding for the engineering plans, the enviromental impact study, the amount of graft being paid to construction crews, the safety inspections. lobbying for the federal funds to underwrite the project... Trouble is, you go before congress, and you tell them, "God has decreed this pipline be built." "Oh, really?" says congress, looking around to make sure there are no sharp objects lying around. "Really," you say, "Here are the plans." At which point, you pull out the stone tablets, with glowing letters, written by God's own mighty hand, his power eminating from every line as you see the perfection in every weld, and the devine in each pumping booster station... and lay the devie relics before them. "Did you get three bids on this, as per federal regulations?" They ask.
