God helps those who help themselves, right? Isn’t that in the Bible?

Uh, you're kidding, right? That slogan is found nowhere in the Bible, it's been misattributed to the Bible by the Ayn Rand types.

It's been correctly attributed to the ancient Greeks, who were of course polytheists: "The gods help those who help themselves."
