Hood had been found alive. However, I noticed two of the wives of the hikers each said, "I know God is with them on the mountain and will keep them safe and I know God will bring them back safely." Isn't it dumb to say you KNOW something you don't know? Why do people do that? Well, I think they express themselves this way because they hope SO MUCH that they exaggerate. But have you ever tried to say to someone, "Well, you can't actually KNOW that..." and they go nuts on you? "Oh, yes, I KNOW!" Paugh! They know nothing. I wish the hikers on Mt.
