Question for Oral Roberts. Did God remove his "protective shield" from
Edited on Sat Sep-03-05 12:27 PM by mzmolly
the Red States?

Bad taste I know.

I just wonder if the likes of Oral Roberts will find "godly" rationale for this disaster any time soon?

I hear some fundies are already blaming it on the practice of Voodoo in NO? :eyes:

On edit: for those unfamiliar Oral Roberts (or some such idiot) claimed that God removed his "protective shield" from NY on 911 due to the so called "sinful nature" of the city.

President vacationed.

I have a Republican Governor in Minnesota, we're still a blue state and have been for years. When one discusses red/blue states it is generally in the context Presidential elections.

2. I am really hoping that the rationale of people understanding the
basic need to survive this will finally drown out the idiocy of the conservative freak speak. :hi:

3. The entire country is suffering because God is punishing
us all for allowing the bush crime family to take over our country and destroy it.

17. My point is Katrina is not God removing protection from red states.
Proof was Florida beating the record for number of hurricanes to hit one state in a hurricane season.

11. Can't you stop that bullshit about God ?
Maybe some could notice that we live in the XXIth Century even if some red states haven't passed the 1600th century level...

Let God out of natural disasters and Bushmade disasters...


Jeeeezzzus

13. Not bad taste at all.. I think relevant..
as it exposes the dimwitted morons who believe that crap for what they are.

Geez, I don't see jesus down their rescuing babies from the devastation. I don't see the all loving hand of god expressing compassion for the sick and dying in NOLA.

Get over it, fantasy worlders.
