2. Neither have I - but I suspect he gave credit for the girl's
survival and rescue to whatever deity he worships, rather than the combination of luck (hers) and skill (the rescuers) that actually accomplished the task.

4. I don't blame them - our whole culture is built on 'All you need is gumption & you can do ANYTHING'
Glad she's OK

Glad she got to see the ocean before most the sea life dies...

5. To be fair, Jesus DID enable her to walk across the water to safety
He would have towed her boat to shore, too, but he had to deal with some shit over in Israel.
