They might surely have a stronger belief now. Assuming some deity did save them, then one must ask why the deity hasn't saved thousand of thousands of other folks who were probably praying quite vigorously as their planes went down. Why these guys?
I know, "God works in mysterious ways" or "God has a plan".
Not very convincing, IMO.
I think you may also find a large number of "believers" don't believe in the "active god" angle, but I could certainly be wrong.
