If I can’t blame YOU, who else is there to blame?
Father Wages Court Battle Against Funeral Protests “Military deaths are the work of a wrathful God who punishes the United States for tolerating homosexuality.” (ABC News)
Why Is Pat Robertson Blaming Haiti? “The [Haitian earthquake] was divine retribution for a pact with the devil.” (Time Magazine)
Disabled Kids are God’s Punishment for Abortion “God is taking “vengeance” on parents who have had abortions by making their other children disabled.” (CBS News)
why is it people like THAT who make headlines and give Christianity a bad name? why don’t they write about Christians like ME hehe… oh.. coz there’s nothing to say about me i guess… how are you honey? nice to see you on my blog tonight, if i find a way to make money online, i’ll tell you about it
so you’re taking a little trip? so to speak? sounds good, i think you could use a wee vacation. and i agree that nobody wants to hear about the glue, unless someone’s sniffing it lol (a Christian preacher hopefully)
It’s an ugly world out there. This is why I mostly stay at home. Well, that and because I don’t want to cause earthquakes….
That is atrocious and most excellent of you to mention it…I guess they must skip over the “THOU SHALT NOT JUDGE’ Oh well, Cracked up at Nursemyra’s comment lol
Whether or not I’m able to fathom such thinking (and I’m not) is irrelevant. It’s frightening to live in a world where it exists and to see its consequences.
“Blame is for God and little children.” (forget the author)
Yaaaaaaaaaa, that’s why there are earthquakes? Well shit i guess science had it wrong all along. Seriously? Why are there so many total wankers out there? Why does religion have to be about blame? I never understood this. Something bad happens, oh it has to be Satan or some human worshiping him or something equally ridiculous. Why can’t people just relax and enjoy life?
I love nursemyra’s comment.
If you extend a leap of faith beyond personal belief in to an established religion it’s no longer about faith any more,it’s about control, power and oppression. On the other side of the topic, I don’t know about earthquakes but some women can make the earth move
I believe earthquakes are caused by people who visit each others photoblogs and always say “great photo and story” even if they think the picture is total crap and didn’t bother to read the story. Oh, I almost forgot to say, great photo and story.
I recall a Muslim friend telling me the reason women should dress modestly is because men have dirty minds. Blindfolds would solve a lot of problems here and there.
It takes two to shake the earth. I’m puzzled by their one sided logic.
Surprised they didn’t mention that every time a woman has an orgasm skies split in half and a lightning strikes. Everybody knows that.
Kids say the darnedest things. Adults say the stupidest things.
I want to comment on this, but I seem to have been rendered speechless with astonishment…
Suddenly I remembered something–a tidbit of wisdom–a buddy of mine related coming from his mother years ago. I guess it was timeless and she was right: “One thing you can always count on: Human stupidity.”
Jeezus H. Christ.
Oh yeah, Sera! I enjoy the comic today. Looks like you might be trying to start an earthquake, though. Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha! Uhhhh…. no. This is just too scary to be funny…. I know. It’s not, really….but it is…
ET beam me up!!! Hurry!!! :-/
I read that in the news and I was like…WTF!
Do you think men will respect women more, then? I mean, if we can cause earthquakes…
“Honey, do the dishes!”
“Nah, football is one”
“Honey…!”
“…”
* Whole house shaking, man running to do the dishes *
“on”, not “one”. Rha, it kills the joke…!
I am Christian and a strong one. My church does wonderful things for the community – the whole community. I have never understood why certain sexual preferences are grounds for others to exclude, denigrate, and discriminate. I know what the scripture says about sex and I also know that things are relative. For example, incest is bad but not if you are a patriarch. There are many other examples throughout the bible.
Last year, I had the honor of knowing a woman that was homosexual. We would chat, and argue, and it was great. I have never met anyone like her before or since and I am better for having known her. There is no way that women, homosexuals, or guys in Santa Claus suits are responsible for earthquakes. Instead of pointing fingers at others we should take a clue from Jesus and love our neighbors as we do ourselves.
I’m so changing my Adult Friendfinder ad to “Man Looking for Women Who Cause Earthquakes”.
spontaneous combustion is bizarre huh? i used to fascinated by it when i was young, i wonder if it hurts alot, and how long it takes? one time i walked into a bathroom at a bar and there was a pair of cowboy boots standing in front of a sink with nobody in them lol there was a cig burning by a can of hairspray, and i pointed and yelled ‘SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION!!!!’ but nobody paid me anymind, meanwhile the poor girl was never seen again… jk she was prolly takin’ a pee
On the other hand if we could blame GOD for everything we might stop blaming each other’s beliefs for what occurs naturally in earthquake prone areas that happen to be occupied by humans.
There is always someone to blame when we attach ourselves to a moral system of declared abstract absolutes- inevitably leading to highly unethical consequences.
Best wishes
man, thats just crazy!
I thought it was miniskirts in the ’60s. Man, do I feel like an idiot.
I do believe they could cause earthquakes in the physiology of males!!!LOL!!!! GREAT post Sera!!!!
Stupidity is the most dangerous and widespread of human diseases.
i survived the great boobquake of 2010 lol
