I completely agree with you, but I think some people say that because it is a way of not feeling alone, that means that if God saved their lives He is also with them at all times, which He is, I think but I dont think he would change the setting of things, you know free will, if you where involved in an accident is because you messed up or someone else messed up and thats it, somebody screws up, somebody pays.

I have been in accidents and near misses where a fraction of a second later, a few inches to the left and I would be dead. One incident I remember moving, jumping actually after being frozen where I stood. But I was more lifted, because I do not recall "jumping", I remember being light though. Similiar incident happened again about a week later, I decided to stop logging.
My oldest brother pulled my out of the water one time before I learned ho to swim. He said he was just laying on the beach (river), relaxing when he got an urgent and very strong sensation to find me, and jumped in the water without really thinking about it.

We tend to turn to fate when **** hits the fan. Instead of believing and communicating with God on a constant basis, most people only do it when things get really bad. People say this in an attempt to keep faith and believe that whatever comes out of a situation is God's will. I've done it before, several times.

I agree that when people say this it bothers me...
But this is simply because of my beliefs. I believe that God is always with us, whether good or bad things happen. It is up to us however, to choose what we make of it. I mean I don't believe that God would be with someone who survived a disaster, and abandon the one who lost his/her life.
Why people would say this? I don't know.

God doesn't want our lives to be "perfect" in anyway. So many individuals face various trials and challenges. Despite that, God is always by your side. So God is basically protecting you in the very dangerous and scary process.

You can't say that because you don't know. If you knew God, then you wouldn't have had to even ask the question.

It makes them feel special and important to imagine that, out of a universe of a billion billion stars, that an infinitely wise and powerful being would find the personal goings-on of a bunch of talking monkeys to be the most important thing EVER.

I hear ya my friend, it always irritates me when I see a person suffering from a painful and dibilitating desease, gasping for air while their body burns up from the insides with cancer, and someone says, he/she is in Gods hands now. Why is this imaginary God so cruel?

Good question. Why let something bad even happen to someone just to go in rescue afterwards?....

it's right that god made things unfold but the result of the accident might had been more painfull if good wasn't with them
