17. Anyone here read "Papillon" by Henri Charrière?
In very brief summary, it's about a guy wrongly convicted and sent to Devil's Island. Given the conditions on that happy isle, the prisoners must stow their money in a container that they then insert deep into the rectum (a la Christopher Walken and The Watch in Pulp Fiction)

The container is called a plan.

In that context, it's deeply troubling to learn that "we're all a part of God's plan" or that "God has a special plan for each of us."

Make of that what you will...
