National Public Radio Commenters Blame God For Miraculous Finding Of Lost Florida Girl

One more reason that National Public Radio should not be Fed Funded, is that they have the most incredibly low ratings in conjunction with the most incredibly bitter, sour, hopeless, and liberal hosts and listeners.

Case in point: Most everybody (except NPR listeners) have marvelled at the miraculous finding of the Winter Springs, Fla. girl, Nadia Bloom, who was discovered by a fellow church member who reportedly was awakened by God at night and "told" to go back into the gator infested swamps to retrieve the fortunate/unfortunate girl who had been lost for days.

From the NPR site, I found the following comments (there were none that were positive) which were quite critical of the miracle. Here's just a sampling from NPR blog/comments, and expect to see the same on ABC's,NBC's,CNN's, and, of course, MSNBC's sites:


Pat S (pds51) wrote:
First let me say it's wonderful he found the little girl, citing God's help or not. Great news! But, it always amazes me when people who give credit to God for helping them do something amazing (find a lost little girl in a freakin swamp by themselves) don't consider giving God credit when horrible things happen (like NOT finding all the other missing/abducted children who end up raped and murdered). If one approached the question with an open mind its quite obvious that either 1. God likes to harm little children b/c the number of children who are never found or turn up dead far outweighs the happy alternative OR 2. God has nothing to do with this (pssst... b/c he's not real).

So let me understand this clearly. God actually told Mr. King where Nadia was. Are we sure that God wasn't, say, reminding Mr. King where he had stashed her in the first place?

[There were many more like this, but why read too much of their depressing talk?]

What bitter, bitter people, those libs. Happy Tea Party Days!

The Left has no understanding of Christianity. But their ignorance doesn’t bother them — they are always ready to pronounce judgement on things which they don’t understand.

Well, the NPRers are a Godless, secular lot. So, we need to keep them in our prayers.

They think that God should operate like they think, otherwise none of this makes any sense.

Well, I have NEWS for them: 1)They’re never going to figure out God; 2) God doesn’t make mistakes; and 3) They can either believe in Him or not.

I believe I know the answer to #3.

Most of the time these kids are murdered as fast as anyone realizes they have disappeared, so all the prayers for their safe return are, unfortunately in vein.

But in this case, we give God all the praise and glory for guiding this dear man to her.

These leftist vermin wouldn’t shed a single tear if that girl was brutally raped to death. The ONLY things that leftists care about: their own pleasure and the well-being of their fellow criminal scum.

Exterminate all leftists like the vermin they are!

Didn’t God know she was going to get lost in the first place? If He knew that, why let her get lost and have all that suffering?

Liberals may not believe in God, but God believes in them.

And knows them all by name.

Amen!

Keep a few around in zoos, so those who come after us can see the dangers themselves.

I suppose they could be useful for scientific purposes. Same reason they keep smallpox in a lab somewhere.

I don’t consider it realistic to annihilate them all but it would definitely be worthwhile.

I’m sure Amy Goodman accused Karl Rove of losing her in the first place.

God does not, will not suborn our free will. And little girls have loads of it, bless’em.

Yes, apparently even the autistic ones. If she had been bitten by a snake or gator, would it still have been her free will decision?

You are living in a fallen world. God explains it all in the bible.
