@regehr @lritter to be fair, I think the original usage goes back to things like non-deterministic Turing machines, where an Oracle whispers to you the exact right sequence of non-deterministic choices to make to get the result you want, and in that case (certainly in the presence of things like uncomputability etc.) some form of divine intervention (or at least divine wisdom) might legitimately be required.
