God's a Dick

[Dixon Carter Lee]

Tomorrow there will be a story about some guy's house that escaped storm wreckage somewhere, and some schmuck is going to say that God was watching out for him. Which, of course, means, that at the same time God was saying "Fuck you" to everyone else.

I didn't even know that there was a hurricane that happened in new york until a few minutes ago, which I'm sure will come to a surprise to new yorkers, considering that they think NYC is the center of the universe.


Glad you're ok DCL!

It's a Divine warning that all of you should vote Republican.

Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the Earth quakes, the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol' storm right in the eye and says: "Give me your best shot. I can take it."

I guess if you look at it as God saying 'fuck you' then its what you get. If you have faith in God you know that everything happens for a reason and he (or she) never gives you more than you can handle.

Hope everybody is all right.

Well, God apparently gets a kick out of impregnating rape victims. He's all about dick moves.

False. Brother "Rick" said it best at this location (http://www.thelutheran.org/article/article.cfm?article_id=4779 )

I have to say something here. How does one define "more than you can handle"? Does that mean how you face hardships, trials, tragedies, and sufferings in life?

One needs to take a look at the verse that directly proceeds this to fully understand what Paul is talking about. 10:12 is "Therefore, let anyone who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall." Put that verse back-to-back with this one and it becomes evident that the underlying theme of verse 13 is NOT about facing hardships, trials, tragedies, and sufferings in life, but temptation -- namely, the allure to do wrong, to do evil, and how one can escape that allure (In fact, "temptation" is used in place of "testing" in most translations). The key words in this verse are "he will also provide the way out". Provide the way out of what? -- temptation. One is not provided the way out of a loved one's tragic death, our house burning to the ground, or losing our life's savings in a stock market crash. These are examples of circumstances that God allows in our lives from time to time, but they are not temptations. Look at Job and everything that happened to him -- and, by all accounts (Job 1:8), he always took the way out when tempted to do evil.

This is a verse that's been taken out of context for a long, long time. Maybe scripture does contain a verse that deals with how one faces hardships, trials, tragedies, and sufferings in life, but it's not THIS one.

Amen.
