Tornadoes, Fires, and Divine Wrath at Red States

[Vogon_Glory]

You know, if the current round of tornadoes and range fires had occurred in Democratic-voting states, you'd hear the religious broadcasters and their pals in the right-wing propaganda organs saying that those natural disasters were caused by Divine Wrath because the Almighty was angry at the locals for voting for pro-choice, secular-minded, atheistic, America-hating liberals. Of course, since these states vote Republican nothing will be said.



:tinfoilhat: :silly: :crazy:

1. God and I talked last night - his Kansas tornadoes missed last night.

He was trying for Fred Phelps.

[proud2BlibKansan]

3. They missed Kansas altogether

Tornadoes were in Missouri.

[amitten]

5. No, they did not miss. Lawrence, KS got hit bad.

They closed KU down because 60% of the buildings were damaged.

10. Isn't that where the National Severe Storms Laboratory is?

Where the tornado hunters are based? Odd, that.

[proud2BlibKansan]

15. I was thinking about last night

Didn't Lawrence get hit yesterday morning? And I thought it was just wind, not a tornado.

[amitten]

16. Yes, it did. There were several tornados reported in the area.

According to someone I know who attends KU...

4. Please

you would lose some of us along with them. Ignore them and don't wish for us to go down with them.

[rkc3]

14. I agree, I would hate to lose any people capable of

thinking for themselves.

When shit like this happens, and I do feel bad for any one who suffers through these events (even nutters), it always seems like Jerry Falwell or someother pompous ass has to share his conversations with God about why he did it.

It makes me laugh when a pompous ass like myself gets to make the comment first.

2. That is ridiculous

It is almost spring. Guess what happens then? Bad weather on the plains. Every spring. Not only the springs following an election where the plains states voted Republican or Democrat.

The states on the east coast have hurricane season, we have tornado season.

8. really ridiculous

[Dr.Phool]

9. Yeah, but they were getting nailed in early February

Dead middle of winter.

Quick!! This calls for a live sacrifice.

6. The religious nuts will say that ...

Red States are being punished for the sins of the pro-choice, secular-minded, atheistic, America-hating liberals in the Blue States ... just like US soldiers are being killed to punish homosexuality and tolerance in the US ... just like 3000 people died in the WTC because the liberal, pagan sister of a gay atheist had an abortion ... etc. etc. It never occurs to them that they did anything wrong or offended the gods in anyway. :eyes:


On edit: Why does an act of NATURE always have to be an act of GOD? I guess, it's one and the same as far as they're concerned. :shrug:

7. Illinois is a blue state

They had tornados last night.

God is not punishing the red states, any more than He is punishing California every time they have an earthquake.

Tornados rip through the midwest and south this time of year. Hurricanes rip through the Gulf Coast in their season. Earthquakes hit fault lines and sometimes other places for scientific reasons.

Sam Kineson would have said that if you don't want these things to happen to you, you would move. (He had the joke about starving people in Africa-they live in the desert! Of course there's no food there! Send them trucks and take them to where the food is!).

That's what the freepers would say if all the victims were democrats or black.

[kineneb]

12. no punishment

...as the famous t-shirts explain...shit happens...

God shuur don't look like no tek-ton-ick plate to me...He dont even look like no dinner plate...:evilgrin:

"The deity you are attempting to reach by prayer is currently on vacation. Please leave a message and a substitute diety will be contacted regarding your request. Beep."

[Beelzebud]

11. Illinois is a blue state, and central Illinois got nailed last night.

So spare me this BS.

[cssmall]

13. Har, fucking har har.

Don't know where you are from, but cut it some fuckin' slack pal. These tornadoes were only few miles up the road from me. Not trying to be a dick about it, but who fucking cares what they'd say, it's not like a damn thing that they would say means anything anyhow.

17. We had terrible storms here last night

Had to rescue the dog off the porch and had all 3 cats in bed with me.
Straight line winds and rain.
It was pretty fierce.
