Today I was driving down the street and pasted a church with a changeable billboard sitting out front to tell you how welcome you are. A billboard to tell you the time of bible study and services. This billboard was void of such announcements. Instead it spoke of the recent earthquakes and which bible verses to read to discover why they are happening. I made a mental note of such verses. When I got home I pulled the paperback bible off the back of the toilet and went to my room to educate myself. There I found out why God is killing these people with earthquakes. Its because they are evil. They have strayed. The deserve this and the end of the world is near.
Do you get this? God made the earth shake. Killed hundreds of people, because they were evil. Evil? Haiti is evil? Little babies in Chile are evil? The dogs and cats crushed to death are evil? If they were evil why didn't Satan save his obidient children?
Someone posed the question to me, "wonder what they would say if it happened to them." I knew exactly what they would say, "The Devil did this to us!" You know that "evil-doer" we call a fallen angel but really has God-like status in the Christian faith.
Must be nice to never have blame bestowed upon your annoited Christian head. Never responsible for your actions.
If its good, God did it. Which means you are a good Christian. If its bad the Devil did it and you need to talk to God more.
Or you talk to that other God called Jesus. Oh it is all so confusing.
I am really glad the Christians know what is going on. Here I thought tetonic plates were moving and pressure was building and perhaps the domino effect might be going on. You know one moves it triggers them all. But darn it all to heck, it was God the whole time and he was weeding his field. He only keeps wheat you know and they were evil weeds.
Silly me, I was so ignorant. I thought weeds were just flowers and plants that wildlife ate but not what you wanted in your perfectly vain lawn....oh I really need to stop reading science and read the bible!

My ex-Christian husband explained to me that although he agrees with my above statement that some would be offended.
I want to say I felt very angry when I read that billboard. Heard this on the 700 Club and various other places.
This was not really aimed at ALL Christians. But I will not lie here to make it all better, I did aim this at the science disbelieveing fundies that are among us.
I know the majority of MY Christian friends do not feel that these people were evil. They know they live on a fault line that sometimes moves. They feel sad for those people. They do not preach that God is weeding his field of evil doers so the good can remain. I find that very very arrogant.
I will not apologize because a blog is about opinions. I am not a reporter. I also have free speech on my side. Just as the fundi Christians do.
To each their own.......
