THE VIEW FROM THE BOTTOM

IS GOD PUNISHING THE PEOPLE IN GEORGIA, MISSOURI AND OKLAHOMA?

I sympathize with and offer my condolences to the residents and victims of the storms that recently struck Georgia, Missouri and Oklahoma, but the situation does cause me to wonder about God’s role in this situation.

Whenever a tragedy strikes an area regarded as “Liberal”, such as San Francisco, or New Orleans, the Wrong Reverend Pat Robertson, quickly proclaims that “God is punishing the people in those cities” for one reason or another. His reasoning is usually that Gays, or people who support their rights, populate the area.

Now that areas rife with his supporters, or, “People of Faith” as they like to be called, have been butt slammed by natural disasters, there’s no comment from Robertson.

Now I’m neither a scientist nor a bible expert but shouldn’t there be a reason why these areas were hit with natural disasters? I think it’s just the randomness of the weather but I’m sure Robertson would have a more mystical explanation. So where is he and why hasn’t he revealed the reason to us?

Was God’s aim off this time?

If you’re fed up with this kind of nonsense, and the blurring of the line between church and state, as perpetrated by Bush and his worshippers, and the currently most vocal of the Republican/Conservative bullshit artists, John McCain, check out this website for some enlightenment and a good laugh.
