Gambling is for crooks to take advantage of rubes who don't understand odds and cannot recognize the wicked schemes of thieves.All the states that have lotteries need to have a winner once in a while. The odds against willing a Powerball lottery range from about 175,200,000 to 292,200,000. But every state knows that to keep the suckers and saps buying their almost totally worthless tickets, they need to have a winner every once in a while.
How well does God know math? Assuming he is omniscient and therefore knows everything, he must be pretty good at it. Plus, he also knows the future, so he would obviously be able to pick the perfect winner to convince people that people actually go to Heaven.
As is is, there are more people on this planet that know what a Cola Cola is and what to do with it than are aware that Jesus exists and what to make of him.
It would make perfect sense for the Know it All Deity to realize that an occasional personal appearance of God or perhaps just one person returning from salvation would greatly cause people to believe more strongly.
There was this kid: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Boy_Who_Came_Back_from_Heaven
But God chose a six year old kid named MALARKEY? Does that sound like the name that an omniscient deity would choose? MALARKEY?
