Christian Group: Hurricane Katrina is to punish abortion
http://www.salon.com/politics/war_room/index.html



From Salon War Room:

"And now, here it is. In an e-mail message we just received, a group calling itself Columbia Christians for Life alerts us to the fact that a satellite image of Hurricane Katrina as it hit the Gulf Coast Monday looks just like a six-week-old fetus.

"The image of the hurricane ... with its eye already ashore at 12:32 p.m. Monday, August 29, looks like a fetus (unborn human baby) facing to the left (west) in the womb, in the early weeks of gestation (approx. 6 weeks)," the e-mail message says. "Even the orange color of the image is reminiscent of a commonly used pro-life picture of early prenatal development."

And in case you're not getting the point, the e-mail message spells it out in black and white: "Louisiana has 10 child-murder-by-abortion centers," the groups says, and "five are in New Orleans."

But why would God single out Louisiana? Other states have many more abortion clinics, and Louisiana and the other states hit hardest by Katrina all voted for the pro-life president of the United States. It didn't add up for us at first, but the Columbia Christians for Life have an answer for everything. God has already punished California with earthquakes, forest fires and mudslides; New York with 9/11; and Florida with Hurricanes Bonnie, Charley, Frances, Ivan, Jeanne and the early version of Katrina."

10. It looks more like . . .
It looks more like The Flying Spaghetti Monster whirling His Noodly Appendages in a Sufi dance that commemorates all the Muslims killed by the U.S.

7. And then they pay $18,000 for the toast on Ebay!!
These people need to go to mental hospitals. Maybe they should go to another country and live. This is AMERICA and you, protectors of the fetus while many in this world are dying, are not welcome here. GET OUT!

6. I was wondering when they would start that.
Even if true, why would God hit three Bush states?

I mean Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi?

Not exactly Sodom and Gommorah

8. I was expecting the "Weekly World News"
And the old "Satan's Face Seen in Hurricane!"

But you've got to admire the sheer creativity of the fetus angle. Even if they're insane and actually believe it.

11. These people are so insane.
Edited on Wed Aug-31-05 08:27 AM by Totally Committed
Why, if there is a God, would She/He/It punish an entire city for abortion? And, didn't that freeper say yesterday on another thread that Katrina was to punish the poor (read: those "abusing" the welfare system) for rampant pro-creation?

They are just insane.

18. For the record, six weeks of pregnancy is an "embryo," not a fetus.
Never forget to correct these idiots on their medical illiteracy. It's not technically a fetus until the 20th week of gestation.

And >95% of elective terminations take place before that stage.

That said, yeah, they're dumbasses of the lowest order, these "Columbia Jesus-haters for Life."
