If it's any consolation, I regularly beat on God about why
God doesn't do some burning bush thing to each person

go get them like God decided to go get me?

If it weren't for God's unilateral action I'd still be
outside. But saying that is no help, more like an insult to
someone who is willing to believe but lacks any concrete
reason to do so.

Thanks Quasin, at last someone who understands the situation.
Sometimes it seems theists are unable to see anything outside their
religious world.
