Tornados Smashing Churches - "God's" Way Of Saying Stop?

Post by JustDucky »

How come that is never said? That it's "God's" way of saying no more church for you or your town or whatever? It's "his" way for everything else. Why not for churches? Makes me wonder.

Well, not really. Hypocrites.

Ha ha. I've got garlic salt.

I just saw someone on the news in Slidell or somewhere nearby that a church got destroyed. He said something really goofy about the church. But when someone dies - DIES! For instance, I dunno, 9/11 or plane crashes - suddenly it's God's way!

Nobody ever says that about a church getting blown apart.

Or do they?

if they do, they are called godless heathens and then have a cross burned on their lawn

Meaning it's the religious people who say whatever but they never say it about a church. That I've heard.

Are heathens automatically godless?

Which is amusing, given that when the Scots Burn a cross,
it means "I will defend this land to the death"
:D So I guess they are offering protection????

either that, or the furry-legged transvestites are telling them to bring out their sheep and no one gets hurt. :D

Personally: tornados sweep thru a community, and I feel sorry for the people affected. The buildings, which can be rebuilt, are more shigata ga nai

I believe so, at least insofar as the way I was told the phrase translates. As long as no one gets hurt, buildings can be rebuilt.

Maybe it's God's way of saying he hates the church, and wants a better one.
