I'm not sure getting rid of it is necessary, you could just ADD a clause for acts of nature and acts of gong (as opposed to God... because we are kind of the gods and goddesses and if acts of god/desses were ruled out, then we could legally feed them bad stew).

I think the difference is that events and gong rings are made in good faith and hope that something positive will happen for the village
