2. Who cares what they do as long as they stay on their side of the bunker.

3. They SHOULD ...
but they'll probably just think that "God" has abandoned them because they weren't "Christian" enough. They're probably too far gone to see the light.

5. Freepers are easy to trap, simply remind them that
by their logic, anything that happens is a result of God's will, and therefore proper.

The problem is, they begin to show their true colors in such situations, and therefore can't really argue with you, because their politics doesn't mesh with their religion.

6. They will rationalize it to fit their notion of "faith".
When Kerry gets in, they will decide God has done it for some reason that is beyond their understanding. That he works in mysterious ways, that they are not the ones to question, or to draw back the veil. It will be a trial sent by God to test their faith.

They'll probably think it's a sign of the End Times and run out to buy something to wear for the Rapture. I know of a couple of people who did this when Mt. St. Helens started belching last month.

Count on it - they'll find some way to twist their heads around it to make it fit into their twisted little notions of religion.

8. Nah. They will be too busy praying
For something to happen to Kerry before Inauguration day.

A FREEPER PRAYER: "Jesus, please make John Kerry go away in some manner for which we cannot be reasonably implicated. And give me a new SUV, a big red one like the good Deacon got after he was acquitted of the charges. Bless our Republic and all the worthwhile people. And make sure my daughter finds a good man, and by 'good,' I mean 'rich.' Protect us from the Evil One (Clinton), and keep us from taxes.

Now don't just stand there, Heavenly Father. You heard me. Get to steppin. They will be done, and by 'thy will,' I mean 'my will.'"

Lord, DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE WORDS THAT ARE COMING OUT OF MY MOUTH?!!

10. According to a woman quoted in a WaPo article
it would be God's way of letting the faithful know that we are in the end of days and they should prepare. Look for an increase in sales for back yard bunkers and dried provisions.
