My conclusion is that God's people have been doing a lot of praying, but damned little humbling of themselves.

I don't think you can conclude that God's people have been "doing a lot praying". Only God knows this. But you did say one thing right so far that I can tell on this thread. There is "little humbling". I agree. Whether you believe God or not doesn't change a thing however. He will do what He says He will do.Speaking against it doesn't change the fact.
And, yes, I fall short myself; even here on FR. I wrote what I did to encourage another poster not beat anyone over the head with the Bible. I like Laz. He's been here a long time and I've always enjoyed his posts. He sounded discouraged to me.
It seems I have hurt your feelings. I called you insane and made references to your 'sanity' (I was being flippant). I apologize for calling you a name and for being flippant. sincerely sorry.

I disagree, based simply on my own observations over the years.

Accepted.
