Kinda reminds me of a joke.

A flood happens and a man's house - with him on the roof - is floating down the
river.  The man prays to God asking for rescue.

A man on the bank yells, "Catch this rope and I'll pull you to shore."  The man
replies, "No, thank you.  God will save me."

A man in a boat comes by and tells him, "Get in and and I'll take you to
shore."  The man replies, "No, thank you.  God will save me."

A helicopter shows up and lowers a rope ladder. "Climb up and and I'll take you
to safety."  The man replies, "No, thank you.  God will save me."

Finally, the house collides with a bridge and the man is killed.

In Heaven, he asks "God, why did you not save me?"

God replies, "I sent you a man with a rope, and boat and a helicopter.  What
else did you want me to do?"


I use this to remind people that someone's not going to do their work for them.
 They need to help themselves when the opportunity presents itself.

Sitting around waiting for someone else to help you means that you will go no
where.

.... The best defense against logic is stupidity.
