This kind of selective perception is the root of all religious conviction. Whenever something fortunate happens it is seen as validation of God's support and blessing, When bad happens it is not seen as evidence of disfavor but rather the work of the Devil and allowed as a test of faith. Few people ask objectively if their own actions or that of others may have precipitated the result. Or if the laws of satistical probability could have predicted the likely outcome of any situation. Good and Bad things happen without gods or boogiemen pulling the strings.
