I don't care if she credits God, Buddha, or the Flying Spagetti Monster. She prayed & found the strength to do what needed to be done - and saved hundreds of innocent lives. Nothing else really matters to me.
I was just disputing your point that she's somehow inspiring people not to take action - taking action is exactly what she did.
