Is 'God' sending Harvey to punish Texas for their hate?

[jaF0]

Now forecast to be a major Hurricane at landfall Friday or Saturday and possible stay close to shore creating horrific flooding.

Can't help but wonder if this isn't comeuppance for the incessant hate displayed by Perry, Abbott, et al.

Pity it has to fall on people that probably can afford to suffer the effects the least. By now, mass evacuations should be underway.

It can only be thus. The will of Gaw-hawd cannot be thwarted.

Just send your hurricane deflection dollars to Pat Robertson and all will be OK.

Notice how {JHWH} always sends storms to smash trailer parks and humble villages, not sinful downtown districts? {JHWH} either is a bad shot or has a wicked sense of humor.

Oh for (pick one: heaven--shit) sake! Don't you know anything about Bible Belt, Bible Thumpin' beliefs?

For the pious believer it isn't punishment, but a test of your faith. It's only punishment if you don't believe. Same storm, same destruction, same outcome, but totally different reasons you and your Baptist neighbor have to go through it.

..." for he causes his sun to rise on the bad as well as the good, and sends down rain to fall on the upright and the wicked alike."

In other words it makes no damn difference if you believe or not, you're gunna get whacked no matter what.

If donnie had kept his promise and built that wall, maybe it would have stopped that hurricane from illegally entering the US?

 

[jaF0]

Coming in from the Gulf, so it must be the fault of the Coast Guard.

Evacuation orders now being issued for some locations.

To even think you can comprehend the will of God is a sin in and of itself.

You know we're gonna get some rain here when the Roadside Advisory signs (which usually say things like "Accident Left Lane 1 mile Ahead" all say "FILL GAS TANK NOW"

God is paying back that Green Eggs and Ham bullshit from Cruz.

or...

Boarder Patrol sent by God!

Texas is merely effluvium washed down from the mountains of New Mexico.
This storm, like all storms, will erode NM a bit more and splort TX a bit deeper.
As Antarctica and Greenland melt, Houston and Corpus Christie will go away.
BTW the USA's 2nd-largest canyon is in the TX panhandle. It'll probably stay.

It would be a nice show of good faith if Trump would, you know, appoint a Secretary to the Department of Homeland Security, to which FEMA reports. Just in case there's a natural disaster. Is that too much to ask?

Yes. It is.

Hurricanes are bad, but at least we have a fully staffed Executive Branch manned by competent, experienced people who have respect for science.

FEMA is a commie plot to round up honest Americans into concentration camps. So I hope FEMA does not enter the Great State of Texas.

Would FEMA be welcomed if they arrived in fully-loaded taco trucks?

I don't like all the flooding that Houston gets, but God is not mocked and Cruz lives less than 15 miles away from me.

There is something really fucking weird going on. I swear this thread was titled differently a few minutes ago.


Maybe I'm just going nuts.
