What many Christians fail to understand is that God did not target the people of Haiti for their sinful ways no more then He specifically targeted Indonesia in 2004 when it was devastated by a tsunami, or America on September 11, 2001. God is sovereign over all nature all of the time.But God uses natural disasters to punish evil only some of the time. Some Christian leaders should not embarrass themselves by assuming, without it being clearly revealed by God,that a specific natural disaster has come upon the earth as a specific judgment by God on specific people.

This reminds me of that hurricane that was supposed to hit "gay days" celebrations in Florida, and Pat was all over it as God's wraith against gays.
Then the hurricane took a right turn and slammed into Pat's Virginia headquarters. Oops. Now it was just a natural disaster, not judgment from God.
