Ummm...if you believe in God, the idea is that he is to be thanked because thanks to him the scientists etc...

But in reality, the phrase has lost a lot of its original meaning. Still we need to be thankful, while we may nt get the Saudi Prince medical care, we still get a lot better care than Kings got 100 or so years ago. If I had a time machine and a few neosporins I'd be the richest man in the world. Plots of land in the middle of London and Paris for saving the King's life.

I understand the reasoning, and it's still insulting. The people don't work any less hard if God exists.
