Prayer for the Riemann Hypothesis

In October 2008, I submitted a prayer at the Prayer Request Site asking for a zero of the zeta function with real part different from 1/2. I gave to whomever fulfills these prayers (let's call it god) a deadline of a month. As the deadline is well over, I can now safely declare that

god told me that there all zeros of the zeta function have real part equal to 1/2; in other words, god told me that the Riemann Hypothesis is true.

An unsolved problem in Mathematics has been solved by the mere intervention of the owner of the Prayer Request Site, i.e. god. Isn't it amazing how prayer works?

Not being ungrateful, I submitted a thank you note at the Prayer Request Site:


PRAISE THE LORD!
Thank you for showing me that the Riemann Hypothesis is true: all zeros of the zeta function have real part equal to 1/2. Can you please help me write a paper now? Or is it sufficient to simply declare that you told me so?
