Yes, that's always puzzled me, too. It suggests a lack of faith to me

There was an amusing scene in a sitcom here on Saturday (the sitcom is called Outnumbered) . A family are stuck in a foreign airport waiting for their delayed plane, and they find themselves have to explain to their little daughter why some people want to blow up planes with bombs:
Mother: They believe that God wants them to do it
Little Girl (continuing to colour in a picture): That's just silly
Mother: Why's that, darling?
Little Girl: Well, if God wants to crash a plane he can do it himself. God can do anything he likes.
