Tides remain a mystery to some people

Bill O'Reilly interviews an outspoken atheist regarding the latter's organization's claim that religion is a scam.  The following exchange ensues:

O’Reilly: I’ll tell you why [religion's] not a scam. In my opinion, all right? Tide goes in, tide goes out. Never a miscommunication. You can’t explain that. You can't explain why the tide goes in...

Silverman: Tide goes in, tide goes out...?

O’Reilly: Yeah, see, the water — the tide comes in and it goes out, Mr. Silverman. It always goes in...

Silverman: Maybe it’s Thor up on Mount Olympus who’s making the tides go in and out...

O’Reilly: No no, but you can’t explain that... you can’t explain it...

The full interview is posted at YouTube; I listened only long enought to confirm that the extract above was not taken out of context, but couldn't listen to the whole thing because I find both people annoying.
