God is punishing us over Iraq, both Katrina and Rita shake up oil industry

[socalover]

Call me crazy but I believe in a God and that power above acts in mysterious ways, I do not believe two major hurricanes headed for oil areas in the same year after the war in Iraq is a mere coincidence.

Flame away!

PS No, I believe the tsunami was a natural disaster

[American Infidel]

1. That's the same bullshit

That's the same bullshit that the radical islamicists use to justify the 9/11 attacks, god works in mysterious ways. There is no god out there who is punishing anybody for anything, just men punishing each other out of hatred and ignorance.

[Lorien]

21. Let's not forget Pat Robertson

fundies always find a way to make natural disasters fit their agendas.

[American Infidel]

24. Who cares what Pat Robertson says?

He's a charlatan and a crank of the lowest order.

[Lorien]

27. Exactly-which is why I'm dismayed

when DUers sound just like him.

[Old and In the Way]

2. Intelligent Design?

Hmmmmm

[ClintonTyree]

7. The Flying Spaghetti Monster is PISSED!

DO NOT TOY WITH HIS PASTANESS! Ramen.

[Bouncy Ball]

3. "God is punishing New Orleans for homosexuals" said the

reich wingers.

Now you are blaming God for this one for your own reasons.

Poor God. Leave her out of this.

[Earth_First]

4. Or as I stated last night...

5. Who knows?

[socalover]

6. We could use this Faith base hypothesis against Bush on his religious

right following....

[sasha031]

8. Mother Nature want to purge us out possibly?

[KerryOn]

9. God us not punishing us.

He is punishing Bush!
And the radical religious groups of the south.

[CatBoreal]

12. Uuummmm....

...and yet the millions of people who either

a) didn't vote for Shrub and/or
b) aren't members of radical religious groups

are what? Collateral damage?

Sorry, the Gods may work in mysterious ways, but they keep it up close and personal.

[American Infidel]

13. Who's god are you talking about?

Allah, the protestant god, the right wing god, the left wing god, or maybe vishnu, or the lord of the flies?

[CatBoreal]

16. If this KerryOn is right....

I'd bet on Kali. This would be right up her alley.

[WhollyHeretic]

10. How about global warming instead of some mythical vengeance. n/t

[Just Me]

11. Although I do not believe God gets involved in our affairs,...

,...I do believe the inspiration we find through God (whomever and whatever and however we perceive that higher power) can lead us to act in miraculous ways whatever the circumstances.

[orpupilofnature57]

14. I believe in god too, but this is ShrubCo Misery, God will punish..

Halliburton.

[Dover]

15. I think God must be an oil man. They are making hand over fist

from these real crisis, not to mention the ones they make up. The little people with the big SUV's do pay, however.

[Xipe Totec]

17. Poor marksmanship if that were the case n/t

[cynatnite]

18. If gawd destroys all the oil refineries and other oil producing outfits...

without taking human life or causing untold damage outside of that, then I think you might be onto something.

[longship]

19. I am *not* punishing you.

You Terrans are so vain. Everybody blames me whenever anything goes wrong. You Terrans need to start taking responsibility for your own doings. I have a strict rule *not* to interfere. Now leave me alone and let me get back to my cocktail. "BARTENDER! I'll take another now, please! Better make it a double this time."

[alcibiades_mystery]

20. Absolute stupidity

There's a flame for you.

And it's my honest opinion.

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

[jedr]

22. Is this a bait thread, so you can show all your freeper Friends;

How Godless we are?....Who in there right mind would make such a post? If however you are just not thinking straight tonight; sit down and do a little research on the net and educate yourself about global warming and read the New testament about a God of love.

[liberal43110]

28. Agreed--the original poster never even replied

This was just bait. Ridiculous and stupid, but mostly bait.

[Splatter Phoenix]

23. Gulf of Mexico.

Water's 4 degrees hotter than ever recorded before; makes it 90 degrees and perfect for upgrading badass tropical storms into fullblown motherfuckin' hurricanes.

God, as per usual, has nothing to do with this and politely steps out of the way as Science passes and offers him a deferential nod.

[American Infidel]

25. Bastardi

Joe Bastardi from Accuweather on Faux News, was saying that the sea surface temperatures have nothing to do with it and its all just a cyclical pattern. Apparently, Fox was able to find a conservative to bias even the weather reports, it figures.

[Zenlitened]

26. .

[progmom]

29. wow.

You have managed to embarrass me as both a Christian and a Democrat. Way to go! :thumbsup:

[Renew Deal]

30. It's convenient to call the tsunami a natural disaster

while this is God's wrath.

[txindy]

31. Hmmm, I thought the war in Iraq started in 2003. God's watch is broken.
