Then why use the word 'god' in the first place? While luck -both good and bad- is a hugely significant factor in terms of how things play out for us, that's not god. Sure, some persons have exceptional natural talent, but this isn't intentionally given to them... it's just luck. Lucky to have great parents, lucky the phenotype worked out, lucky there were no catastrophic accidents that ended a life early... none of this is consciously given by anyone or anything any more than getting great cards are given to a poker player. It's just how things play out.
