The company operates a storage cavern for petrochemical waste in a salt dome underneath Bayou Corne Louisiana. The dome is apparently collapsing but the company is claiming this ongoing disaster is an act of god.

4. Response from my daughter about this.

Sounds legit. My research for grad school is about tailings dam failures and the mining company always tries to claim the failure was an act of god. In one instance a failure occured due to under ground springs. The mining company claimed they had no way to know about these springs and they cant be blamed. However the locals knew all about these springs and there were maps with the locations of each spring.

5. It was an act of Dog, if you believe Big energy companies are Dog.

6. Hmmm...

"the company is claiming this ongoing disaster is an act of god"

Sort of like leaving a campsite without properly extinguishing a camp fire and calling the resulting wildfire "an act of god".
