You are so right. Last summer when we had the worst drought in history here in Houston (and most of Texas) everyone it seemed complained about "mother nature." This made me understand that this euphemism for God and His control over everything was just the way we complain about God or rather blaspheme Him.

Do the Greeks speak of "mother nature" as a separate and real force apart from God? Here they do, especially on things like the weather segment on television, I think this is in part because they either don't believe in God or they are too ashamed to admit that they do.
