dairygirl4u2c Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 Here is a site that I thought funny. I hope this catches the attention of those born and raised as God fearing right wings; maybe they'll realize things are as black and white as they think. (I'm not trying to convert them) [url="http://www.bartcop.com/message-from-God.gif"]http://www.bartcop.com/message-from-God.gif[/url] I do realize the south is notoriously right wing, so the southern states getting hit shouldn't come as a surprise. And I also realize that it depends on how they drew the lines of the hurricanes. ie if they followed the center or not. And I also realize that if they did follow the center, then it could be just a coincidence.
DominaNostra Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 I do not know what there is to debate, but it is a nice little conspiracy theory he has. He could also throw in: God hates Christianity because He sent Black Death to Europe (but maybe, for some reason, He likes the Pope since He spared him)...
dUSt Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 This doesn't make any sense. The path of the hurricanes affected the pro-Gore counties as well.
Good Friday Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Personally, I don't believe in a God who punishes for voting records. In fact, I believe in a God who loves mercy and abhors severity. That's the God that Jesus revealed when he chose to die for us when he could easily have punished us, and justly so. That said, I don't think God is particularly happy with America for many reasons. The fact that some of us think the hurricanes are God's punishment reveals the sense of guilt that we feel. Perhaps our own indictment of our country is more telling than any punishment from above.
Scofizzle Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 (edited) thats just silly......i think maybe the storm paths were altered just alittle bit...also hurricanes are hundreds of miles wide.....no one county bore the entire storm...not even if the did vote for Bush Edited September 23, 2004 by Scofizzle
kateri05 Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 thats pure propaganda. :angry: thats my 0.02, for what little it is worth!

Socrates Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 If you look at the rest of this site, (a left-wing "humor" site), it's clear that this is just some left-wing liberal's idea of a joke (and probably intended in part to satyrize those "conservative Christians" who say that storms, etc. are "God's punishment.") Har har, those lefties are a hoot.
MorphRC Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 God doesnt kill innocent people to get over a point.
MorphRC Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 God doesnt kill innocent people to get over a point. Humans have that job.
heyyoimjohnny Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 (edited) God doesn't kill people He's mad at. With the Gates of Heaven open, everybody gets a chance until the designated time. People die because God decides their work on earth is done, not because He has a political bias. Edited September 24, 2004 by heyyoimjohnny
MorphRC Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 Hold on. Im Wrong. He does. Read the OT. He allowed the jews to slaughter multiple peoples.
heyyoimjohnny Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 Yes... but I was thinking that might have had to do with the fact that the Gates of Heaven weren't open... I really have no idea, though. Maybe a more educated person than I could confirm this?
1337 k4th0l1x0r Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 (edited) Maybe I would believe it if they were tornadoes, but these were HURRICANES. In case you've never been near a coastal area nor watched the weather channel, hurricane diameters are in the order of HUNDREDS of miles. The path of the eye is often not the most damaged area. For example, hurricane Ivan did far more damage to Pensacola than to Gulf Shores/Mobile where the eye made landfall. In fact, your precious little left-wing propagandist map doesn't even have the correct path of that storm. Then again, valid information has never stopped the democrats in the past. Why don't you just hang out with your buddies in Boston and New York and wait until Blizzard season starts. Edited September 24, 2004 by 1337 k4th0l1x0r
Kilroy the Ninja Posted September 24, 2004 Posted September 24, 2004 Seems like this thread is going nowhere fast (kinda like Ivan now....). Anyways, since I believe it's run it's course (which Ivan may or may not have) I'm closing it.
