Divine Warnings?

[dee1124]

Seems to me that there was something a few years ago about some bad tornadoes being touted as divine retribution for something that happened during the Clinton Administration. I've heard the 9/11 attacks described that way, too.

Well, it's an election year again and last time Florida was at the center of the spotlight. Could Charley and Frances be warnings that things better be on the up-and-up this time?

Yes, this is a terribly political idea and no, I'm not wishing those horrible storms on the people of Florida, I hope no one suffers anything worse than a flooded basement.

Just a thought.

I don't believe in divine warnings. The earth is ever changing and we use what is a natural occurence as a warning from a higher suppossed entity.
Anything such as terrorism is brought on by man.

We just need to adapt.

I can't see a divine being taking a serious interest in the politics of one nation.

Things like this just go to show how far someone will go to convince themselves that what they believe in is real. Not saying that any particular belief is wrong, just that too many people claim and want to believe what they don't really believe.

I don't have a date or context (it was a quick Google search for "God Bush"), though I'm sure it was this year: "I trust God speaks through me.
Without that, I couldn’t do my job."

Thanks.

We won't even bring up John Ashcroft's remark about there being no king in the US except Jesus.

Easy, girl, easy. Think nice thoughts. The silly men will be gone soon enough.

I thought it had been pretty well established that hurricanes were caused by homosexuals while premarital sex caused tornadoes and abortions resulted in earthquakes.

That clears it up nicely....Sorry about the hurricanes and tornadoes everyone. I'll try to cut back.

King of the Jews
King of the US

It's just a matter one syllable.


But really. If God wants to say something, why don't he just issue a press release or something? Triggering a hurricane is a) childish and b) pretty hard to understand what he's trying to say.

Start a blog for fuck's sake.

warning: impending religious joke. Repent Sinnah!

He was going to, but then he remembered how much trouble he got into when he tried to dictate a book.

And it was such a clever spy thriller too. Oh, what? You were thinking the Bible?

Surely NOBODY is that big an idiot!

LOL...think again about whom you're speaking of, if they can be close to the Almighty, the Beatles are fair game.

I think one's alongside him already

I know one 'missquote' put out by rival US promoters who's products couldn't match them, stated they'd said they were bigger than God. You can check the FULL text the quote was distorted from.
