- Remind me how you came into my life?
- I talked to Arthur.
1:03:09
- He said you were beautiful, and smart...
- He always was the brains of the outfit.
1:03:17
It was the house I was born in.
When we lost it, it broke my husband's heart.
1:03:21
- The insurance company didn't pay?
- They said it was an 'Act of God'.
1:03:30
- Mr. Ryan?
- No.
1:03:34
The insurance industry reckons that the
'Act of God' is just a figure of speech...
1:03:38
The churches can't possibly agree with that.
1:03:43
- I suppose for legal purposes...
- What about for religious purposes?
1:03:48
For moral purposes?
For philosophical purposes?
1:03:51
Is there such a thing as an 'Act of God'
that isn't meant to be taken seriously?
1:03:55
I shouldn't think so.
1:03:59
It means what it says,
what else?
1:04:01
Do you think my boat was sunk by an 'Act of God'?
1:04:03
Who can say with these things?
1:04:06
The insurance companies
think they can.
1:04:09
But we don't go running around saying when
the weather's bad it's an 'Act of Insurance'.
1:04:15
Did God make the bolt of lightning
which struck my boat?
1:04:19
Yes, and no.
1:04:21
These things do not have easy answers.
1:04:23
If you can't tell me what's an 'Act of God'
and what isn't, and these men can't tell me,
1:04:28
how can some shiny-arse
with a diploma in accountancy?
1:04:31
Quiet, please.
1:04:34
If God does exist,
the Churches must be liable.
1:04:39
The Churches can only win if they
prove God does not exist.
1:04:48
Do you want to tell them?
1:04:52
Aren't you hopelessly compromised, Your Eminence?
Isn't it one of God's commandments,
1:04:57
That we mustn't take his name in vain?
Isn't that exactly what they've been doing?
