Giving God the glory for the horrible hurricane

Pointer to a thread on another forum (skeptics not railroads).

Muslim bigots.

Christian bigots.

(No Jews, they have other problems.)

And a pleasant surprise.

Please read all the way down and comment.

Thank you.

The wind is the wind of Allah?

So does that mean the monsoon that destroyes many moslim homes is also the wind of Allah?

If something that destroys something and kills in america is from Allah, then what is the destructive force that destroys and kills everywhere else in the world?
Is Allah responsible for all these deaths on Earth?

What crap!

So Muhummed, If it is Allah killing in america, Which god or Prophit is responsible for killing in india?

How can anyone call a weather condition an act of god? What cobblers!

Sure there are helicopters there. More likely to be shot at than in Iraq, sorry to say.

What is it with you Americans?
If you aint firing at the enimy, you fire at the british (why the heck is it friendly fire?), if it aint to british it's fellow americans.

What is it with you guys and guns?

Seriously though, I hope people start pulling together rather than attacking each other. It really is nasty out there, I really hope everything gets better soon!

In this case the problem isn't "Americans with guns", it's professional criminals.

I agree Ab (I meant the above in a tongue in cheek way).

Criminals feed from other peoples misfortunes and these parasides are using a nighmare and devastation to get what they want.
I hope those involved ARE brought to justice!

Four of the countries offering aid the the affected areas are Afghanistan, Russia, Cuba and Iran. Now there's irony for you.

Except in the case of Cuba, I see decency not irony.

In the case of Cuba, I see Fidel trying to get rid of some malcontents, again.

Yes, of course it's decency. The irony is not in the intention of these countries but in America's attitude to them.

I read somewhere that Sri Lanka had offered aid.

Meanwhile the USA has just given $1.2 billion in aid to Israel. And not for the Palestinians. :roll:

There's an old song. The music goes down and around and it comes out here.

Substitute money for music, and you have a good idea what's going on.

I hope god is throughly ashamed of himself for this. I hope also those who left the oap's to die in a nursing home in New Orleans(?) rot in proverbial hell for that. :evil:
