This is from a current Reuters article:
"At St. Aloysius Catholic Church in Baton Rouge, several hundred local parishioners and storm survivors attended Sunday service. "I wish we could take your broken hearts and give you ours," Rev. Donald Blanchard told the gathering.
In addition to consoling storm victims, the church's lead pastor, Jerald Burns, said Katrina's tragedy needed to be a rallying cry for parishioners, church leaders and government leaders to help the needy.
"It's not what God is asking of us," Burns said. "It is what God is demanding of us.
Some people walked out of the church in tears in mid-service. "
Does anyone see anything in what this pastor said that would cause people to walk out in mid-service?? If he had said it was all President Bush's fault, I would understand, but sounds like he just called people to help others in Christian service.

"Some evacuees see religious message in Katrina"
I think maybe some walked out in tears because they were overcome with emotion. It's a God thing maybe.
