I understand! My point is that you have no criteria for your belief, which you and the author worded as if it were a statement of fact.

Sadly, they are not always successful – e.g. millions of people are still dying from cancer - which means your God’s 3.8-billion-years-old instructions have failed. Another example of the inefficiency of your God.
