Why is California burning so badly that the entire sky is glowing red? Could it be because the Lord is less than happy with Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's recent actions?

Yes. Without a doubt.
Could it be that what we are presently seeing on the national news is California spewing out many of its inhabitants as a result of same? Quite possibly but only God knows for sure if that's the case.

Santa Ana winds, an annual phenomenon.
Severe drought in So Cal, ongoing.
Careless or vicious people; lightning or other electrical ignition.
See? We don't need to fish for supernatural explanations.
If your god is so unhappy then why doesn't he just smite Arnie in a smoldering pillar of smoke and fire, you know, like the good ol' days? Noooo, instead he sets fire to the land in such a way as to be totally indistinguishable from a naturally occurring event.
Some omnipotent deity you've got there.
So your god gets offended at something and proceeds to randomly attack other people in the vague name of punishing those he's actually mad at, whose reasoning for attacking in the first place was never directly established and is widely open to interpretation (but regardless of the reason must be the right thing to do)?
No wonder these people see Bush as an incarnation of God.
scenario #1: Disaster happens. People are hurt and dieing. Property and land is destroyed. This obviously happened because evil people were there and this proves god is real.
scenario #2: Disaster happens. People are minorly injured. destruction is avoided. This obviously happens because good people were there and this proves god is real.
Typical "natural disasters = divine wrath" fundie fare. What always gets me, however, is the phrase, "Governor Schwarzenegger". What also gets me is the fact that he got re-elected, which means he's gotta be - at the very least - a decent politician.
SoCal has wildfires going left and right because (1) fires are a natural part of life in the Western United States and always have been, and because (2) there are idiots running around setting more of them just for shits and giggles. As long as we have crazies, we'll never need to invoke the supernatural.
People in California live in a fire zone, just like people in Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas live in a tornado zone, people on the Gulf Coast live in a hurricane zone, and people in the northern tier of the country live in a blizzard zone.
Every time a tornado rips through the god-fearing midwest, this wrath of god talk is nowhere to be found.
And yet... San Francisco, the 'evil gay center of evil gayness', still stands. And has nice weather.
Check. Mate.
Sounds like god wants Arnie to bring in more gays and fewer navy ships.
Why is California burning so badly that the entire sky is glowing red?
Because it's normal for Cali to have wildfires?
Could it be because the Lord is less than happy with Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's recent actions?
What did I just say?
From a strictly scriptural point of view, I would say, "Possibly!" [...]Do these verses establish biblical precedent for us to at least suspect that Governor Schwarzenegger's recent forwarding of the homosexual agenda in California has brought God's judgment upon its lands? Yes. Without a doubt.
Again, what did I say above?
Could it be that what we are presently seeing on the national news is California spewing out many of its inhabitants as a result of same? Quite possibly but only God knows for sure if that's the case
It would be like Alaska allowing gay marriage, and the fundies say God made snowstorms because of it.
So, God became reconciled with the "homosexual agenda" and stopped the wildfires?
Meanwhile, Sweden is miles ahead with the "homosexual agenda" than California is, and no wildfires anywhere here. Guess God likes us more than He likes you. Nya nya nya...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
