Well... to be perfectly honest, I don't think I've ever been truly given a reason to believe that if a God existed back home, that they would be an exceptionally kind one. Even after knowing people who did believe in a God of some kind, I always thought it was just... an excuse I guess that people used to say and do certain things.

... And maybe Danny did it too, on some level, trying to be something close enough to a God for Rachel to look up to, but that didn't work at all.]
