Divine opinion researching

Whilst I was wondering why I start every post with 'whilst' I decided to make public first set of data on opinion researching the creator.

Methodology is simple, could be coin-tossing, but in my case I found a very cheap lotto which only sells you random numbers, then lined up each ticket to a topic, with alternate altruistic and selfish goals, which are mapped against the numbers that match the draw numbers. 3 or more numbers gets a modest cash prize.

Surprisingly, the creator seems to be fairly conservative, trending more into investing in property, but with surprisingly high level of interest in wind farms and hospices. Giving winnings to friends and purely selfish stuff gets a low score.

       //Giving winnings to friends// Well, presumably if you're a god, your friends are also gods who, let's face it, aren't likely to be in need of a lot.

       Some people do this for real. Google "putting out a fleece".

       You know of course that the Biblically-approved method is to cast lots, which the Holy Spirit apparently manipulates like Qui-Gon Jinn to get whatever result is predetermined by the fates of the all-knowing magic 8-ball.   

       I wonder if a Bible-themed Casino would go over well in Atlantic City?
