New Orleans closely resembles Sodom and Gomorrah. Man is doomed to repeat history he does not learn from.
The cool thing to do, blame the government.
And I wouldn't call Katrina the "Fist of God", more like the "Front to Back Seat Open Back Hander".
Not this crap again...
It's Karl Roves evil doing to get those vote frauding democrats out of N.O. to get rid of Sen. Landreau in the next election.
What a bunch of crap! I believe it is very dangerous to start assigning blame to God for natural disasters. God's ways are not our ways and it is extremely presumptuous to pretend to know why a disaster such as this occurs. Hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, tsunamis all are natural occurrences that have always happened and will continue to happen.
What I'm about to say makes me sick to my stomach but it will very much be true: The next LA election will have record numbers of dead people voting.
What nonsense! For every storm someone has to attibute the hand of God acting to punish us for ______________(fill in the blank). Let's see, so far it's Global Warming, the War in Iraq, now the expulsion in Gaza... can alcohol, marijuanna, abortion, and Mardi Gras indulgence be far behind?
Well we had Ruby Ridge, Waco, Ok City, 9/11 amd now this, seems the voice is getting louder each time.
Reminds me more of a book I read about 25 years ago called Lucifer's Hammer. I rarely read fiction, but that one sure left a big impression. The current breakdown of law and order in Nawlins keeps bringing it into my mind.
This ass is in danger of giving anti-Zionism, anti-Semitism, whatever, a good name.
My thoughts exactly, this is just a continuance of our biblical times, 2000-4000 years in not even a second in the existence of our Almighty God.
For all the secularists, they seemed impotent at this recently unleashed, the folly of man shines most when he believes that he is omnipotent, just my 2 cents.
reminiscent of a certain televangelist's remarks that 9/11 was God lifting His protection... even German newspapers are saying Katrina is our fault for ingnoring global warming..
BTW, this reminds me of how Pat Robertson said the hurricane coming towards Orlando was God's wrath at gay days, but Bonnie veered and took out his headquarters in Virginia instead.
There was a thread this morning with a number of people believe this kind of crapola, right along with the envirowhackos and Islamists.
Maybe Robertson had angered God in some way?
What about Betsy or Camille?
What did we in S. Fl. do to piss off "God" in 1992?
Anyways, I thought "God" was pissed at Tampa this year over whats-her-name.....
If Katrina was punishment for not supporting the Jews of Gaza enough, the Christian population of Mississippi would be last on the punishment list.
If Katrina was punishment for the licentiousness of New Orleans, why does Europe still exist?
The rain falls on the just and the unjust, you psychos.
(And I know, Piranha, that you are not among the psychos).
