Don't agree with your assertion that "Most people" say it, but I understand what you mean and my answer is sarcasm. However it is interesting how many people are sensitive to any question which is ambivalent regarding the existence of a supreme being and are quick to defend any perceived insult to that perception even when, as in this case, the question is more about hypocrisy than spirituality.

Sounds like a TV cliché, like "What else could possibly go wrong?"
This is another question in the "Why do atheists call on the name of the Lord in times of trouble?" vein. Prove your assertion that people say that commonly, then explain why many people agreeing on something necessarily makes it true.

The same reason that when something bad happens they say there is no God. I think people just need to to believe that whatever happens, it is nothing to do with them.

Atheists know in their heart GOD exists but their pride wont allow them to believe outwardly.

I never say that and I've never heard anyone say that. Maybe its just the people you associate with.

It is just a saying. Doesn't mean that they really believe it. It means that maybe someone up there really does care.

Because everything good that happens proves God exists, and everything evil proves that sin and Satan exist.

the word good is derived from the word God so good is God and God is good
