2. No, nutcase fundies think its was Gods punishment....
Christians are too busy bringing in food and water and helping people get their lives back to consider such idiocy.

8. Its so funny, they rant about Katrina "destroying" New Orleans
Edited on Thu Sep-15-05 10:00 AM by Rowdyboy
because of gays. Hell, the main gay area was left totally unscathed and in south Mississippi-where there are relatively few gays- there was annihilation. Its inhabitants are mostly low-middle class churchgoers-black and white. Now how do they go about rationalizing that bullshit?

These fundie freaks are soooo messed up.

18. They claim Mississippi was punished for gambling
Since the storm destroyed the casinos. Of course, it destroyed several towns that rejected gambling, as well, and in fact, the eye took the path through the most conservative part of the state.

It's just noise. Fundies have so little to support their views that they make stuff up.

Now, if a hurricane hit Crawford, I'd see it as God's message--since Crawford is hundreds of miles from the coast. :-)

28. There was a group called "Christ in Action" which brought supplies
to Gulfport a lot quicker than the federal government did. Then again, the Canadians got to the region before the federal government did.

31. Cool I know the episcopal relief churches have been collecting
from us for the last two weeks. I know people just want to complain about the frauds like robertson and fawell (and rightly so) but lets give credit were credit is due.

9. I wonder what Las Vegas is doing right in God's eyes?
Edited on Thu Sep-15-05 10:01 AM by AllyCat
Oh wait, that would be in the fundies' eyes. God doesn't really bother with such trivialities. Has actual work to do.

21. Lots of money
Fundies like money. They'll forgive any sin for money.

As for God's priorities, he's still trying to find a way to get Kurt Warner back in the Super Bowl, so he's very busy right now.

Churches. And lots of 'em. Maybe God doesn't like churches.

32. In Il Cardinal George has suspended tuition for displaced children
As a member of the religous left, the Cardinal and I have very little in common but I think this is a good thing. Just giving credit where credit is due.

30. Gee! I wonder whats gonna happen to Vegas or Reno?
The blue bonnet plague! Where everyone grows boobs on their necks

One of the causes of the Revolutionary Wars was the English put tacks in their tea. Also, the colonists would send their pacels through the post without stamps. During the War, Red Coats and Paul Revere was throwing balls over stone walls. The dogs were barking and the peacocks crowing. Finally, the colonists won the War and no longer had to pay for taxis.

Abraham Lincoln became America's greatest Precedent. Lincoln's mother died in infancy, and he was born in a log cabin which he built with his own hands. When Lincoln was President, he wore only a tall silk hat. He said, "In onion there is strength." Abraham Lincoln write the Gettysburg address while traveling from Washington to Gettysburg on the back of an envelope. He also signed the Emasculation Proclamation, and the Fourteenth Amendment gave the ex-Negroes citizenship. But the Clue Clux Clan would torcher and lynch the ex-Negroes and other innocent victims. On the night of April 14, 1865, Lincoln went to the theater and got shot in his seat by one of the actors in a moving picture show. The believed assinator was John Wilkes Booth, a supposedl insane actor. This ruined Booth's career.
