Silent Evidence (from Black Swan)
“Diagoras, a nonbeliever in the gods, was shown painted tablets bearing the portraits of some worshippers who prayed, then survived a subsequent shipwreck. The implication was that praying protects you from drowning.
“Diagoras asked, ‘Where are the pictures of those who prayed, then drowned?’”
