I could think of several things, eg: 1. There are no gods 2. "God" is an undefined entity. 3. Gods dont work; they do things, but you cant call that work --it's more like a hobby. 4. God used to work, but he/she/it is now retired. 5. "Mysterious" should be lower case. Hope this helps regards Milan

Jesus is going to be crucified and following him is a trained seal balancing the cross on its nose. One observer says to the other, "The Lord works in mysterious ways."
