“But Lord, during this hardest trials of my life, why was there only one set of footprints?”
“Because,” says the Lord, “Sandpeople always ride single-file, to hide their numbers.”

Pretty thoughtless misuse of this quote. The Star Wars reference is understandable right off the bat from the use of the term “sandpeople,” however this retooled godly interpretation creates logical fallacies by comparing The Lord to a simpleminded desert nomad Tusken raider, and if that can be overlooked, one is still faced with the quote regarding [hiding their numbers], implying greater forces than The Lord that would warrant hiding from. Overall, a very poor and out-of-context misuse.
Actually I see it as obe one, the wise, saying it rather than him being a sand people, of course most Christians see everything as criticism of the Lord and bad in everything. And become defensive…wonder why they feel they must defend their religion? Or is it they think Jesus, the king of kings, needs their protection? I believe their faith is false and feel the need to protect themselves.
