[Why does God allow evil things to happen?]
9/11 and the tsunami, as well as AIDs, is a punishment from God because of the acceptance of homosexuality by liberals. SO you can't blame god for this, blame the liberals for supporting the sinners, that caused God's wrath.
He did it in Noah's time, he did it to Sodom, and he has struck again.

We can't blame God, you got that right, but it's because he doesn't exist. If he existed, we would be fully justified to blame him for being an intolerant psychopathic fucker who gets pissed of because things are as he made them...
How truly bizzare! Firstly, attributing unrelated events to an imaginary being, but to ice your little cake of stupid, you pretend to know the motives of the aforementioned imaginary being.
Are you sure he's not just protesting against reality TV, or the wonder bra (boobs sag for a reason right God?) or Evangelists never giving him a cut of their scam?
I'm really confused now. Just who causes these problems? God or Satan (or you devil of choice)? If God, why is Satan such a bad guy? If Satan, why doesn't god care enough to try and stop him?
It seems that the tsunami is Satan's way of gathering souls (weird way to convert people if you ask me) or God's punishment for unrelated crimes (lousy aim if you ask me).
So what's this person saying - that the 9/11 victims were all homosexuals? Or that God thinks it's OK to kill everyone because He's mad at liberals for not killing homosexuals? If God doesn't like homosexuals, why doesn't He just get rid of them ? Is His aim that bad that he has to wipe out big parts of Indonesia because He's mad at liberals for not doing His work for Him? This has to be the most ridiculous, self-concocted explanation of God's motives I've ever seen. It's a wonder God doesn't strike hithesh down for thinking God's as stupid and bigotted as hithesh would like Him to be.
So out of everything in the entire known universe, out of all the murder and atrocity, the hatred, bigotry, and selfishness, the genocide, matricide, and infanticide, the one thing that really pisses him off is the consentual act of two human adults.
If the idea of same-gender sex torques his nipple nuts so much, why didn't he just make human beings with a non-contact reproductive method like fish? Or a non-penetrative method like dinosaurs? Or why not make human sexual behavior instinctual, and remove the whole "pleasure" aspect of the experience?
Really, when you think about it from an engineering standpoint, if homosexuality is wrong, then its presence is really a design flaw. Blame the designer, not the product.
So God expresses his displeasure with one group by ... wiping out a random segment of the population who may or not be the ones he's pissed off at, by a means that bears no obvious correlation with whatever's pissing him off?
Your God either has terrible aim or is incredibly inept. If I were God and wanted to get a message across that doing X is bad, I'd make a point of specifically targeting those who do X. And I'd make it something that could at least be plausibly linked to X, or at least smite them while they are doing X.
I've forgotten the Bible passage pinning the Noachian flood on homosexuals. Genesis 6, the relevant chapter, seems only to discuss heterosexual pairings between the sons of God and the daughters of men, and then how "every inclination of the thoughts of his [man's] heart" was evil.
This guy is an idiot. What about Krakatoa or St Pierre, where thousand idiots were killed and no homosexuality was accepted then?. Besides, if it´s a chastiment by God, why is he chastising the Thais, who are not supporters of homosexuality, for what the liberals in the other peak of the world do?. It is so utterly ridiculous it makes me laugh. And this guy is a stupid etnocentric racist.
On the reasons god caused (fill in the blank).
God did not cause 9-11, followers of satans religion islam caused 9-11. God withdrew his protection from America, allowing the attack because of feminists, birth control pills, homosexuals, the ACLU and the democrats.
Thailand and Indonesia was are popular vacation destinations for Swedes. A fundie preacher in Sweden blathered the usual fundie nonsense about homosexuality. He was arrested for hate speech and convicted. God sent the tsunami to Indonesia to kill the Swedes vacationing there to punish Sweden for persecution christians in Sweden.
Why didn't god hit Sweden with a tsunami you ask? Because god works in mysterious ways. Or maybe he has bad aim.
Alternate tsunami explanation: The islamic god is the real god, and he killed 200k muslims because they
follow infidel customs like women walking around with naked hair, selling alcohol to tourists in hotels, allowing infidel tourists to worship the false infidel god Jesus, watching soccer matches on TV, watching indian movies on TV, watching sesame street on TV,
doing just about anything that wasn't done in the 12 century.
I don't think fundies should push the liberals did it theory, because that would make liberals powerful enough to completely obliterate entire countries without using bombs or armies - something conservatives are unable to do.
Yes, it's all because of the gays. Every natural and man-made disaster and disease is because of homosexuality, because we all know being homosexual is the most evil thing you can ever do.
Except for the part where it isn't.
Wow, I never knew liberals were so powerful. They can piss off Gawd so much that he lashes out at random victims in random parts of the world, because he can't seem to target them directly. Maybe if we put liberals in power, they'll make nice with Gawd and he'll stop killing everyone else.
"9/11 and the tsunami, as well as AIDs, is a punishment from God because of the acceptance of homosexuality by liberals."
Assuming just for a moment that God actually exists, how do you know that God is punishing the world for "the acceptance of homosexuality by liberals?" Maybe God is punishing the world for the bad behavior of Fundies. Maybe he's tired of you people spouting vicious crap in his name.
"SO you can't blame god for this, blame the liberals for supporting the sinners, that caused God's wrath."
You have no evidence to support that assertion.
"He did it in Noah's time, he did it to Sodom, and he has struck again."
The Flood story is a fiction ripped-off from earlier myths. There is no evidence that Sodom was destroyed by your God. In fact, there is no evidence that you God, or any god, exists at all.
So, what you are telling me is, God keeps doing the same thing over and over again... with no results?
The definition of insanity is: doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.
God exists. And he's insane.
The funny thing about God using a tsunami or a hurricane to kill a bunch of people is that supposedly God promised Noah that he'd never flood the earth again. So by using the flood waters of a hurricane or a tsunami to kill all the homosexuals and liberals, God is showing himself to be a liar. Funny that the fundies forget about God's promise when they can blame a natural disaster on their current boogey men.
9/11 and the tsunami, as well as AIDs, is a punishment from God...
Quite true. God launched the tsunamis because everything in Indonesia is way overpriced, he gave Africans AIDS because he didn't like European colonialism (and he's a procrastinator), and he helped 9/11 along to punish the US for being infidels and turning our backs on him and his prophet Mohammed. He also used AIDs, or Automatic Idiot Displays to entertain me for reading FSTDT.
Or maybe tsunamis are natural disasters, AIDS is a disease that is spreading throughout Africa through unprotected (heterosexual) sex while the Catholic church tries to advance the epidemic even farther by suppressing the use of condems, and 9/11 was yet another act of faith-based violence.
...because of the acceptance of homosexuality by liberals.
Ah, so God is punishing people halfway across the world because some people here believe that discrimination is wrong, and he came down to Earth to tell you this to your face?
SO you can't blame god for this...
Discrimination is wrong. Refusing to discriminate is right. If someone punishes us for refusing to discriminate, then he is wrong.
If God existed, he would be to blame if he punishes us for doing the right thing, then he's a bastard. If he punishes other people for our actions, then he's also a moron.
...blame the liberals for supporting the sinners, that caused God's wrath.
No, you don't blame the victim. If Hitler were to execute a resistance member for helping Jews flee the country, you would blame Hitler. You wouldn't blame the resistance member for supporting the undesirables and causing Hitler's wrath.
He did it in Noah's time, he did it to Sodom, and he has struck again.
Noah didn't exist, the flood that God caused never happened, Sodom didn't exist, and there is no evidence that any disasters in the world today are caused by God. There are quite a number of disasters caused by peoples' belief in God, but none caused by God.
Keep in mind, there have been disasters throughout history. Back during the 1300s, there was a nasty plague and back then, everyone believed in God, and no one would tolerate gays. What was that a punishment for? People beat themselves up and crawled into church hoping to "repent," but it didn't do any good. What sins were they being punished for?
Perhaps God was punishing them for sins in China. According to you (and the Bible), God frequently punishes innocent third parties instead of the guilty.
Of course, Christians claim that everyone is horrible, so they can always say that the victims of God's wrath were sinners. Naturally, this takes the wind out of their insults against liberals, since they believe that they're just as bad as them, but fundies aren't that big on logic, are they?
Actually, according to the Bible, with the whole Sodom thing? The townspeople wanted to rape angels. Then Locke offered up his virgin daughters for rape in the angel's places.
If you're gonna use a damn story from Bible to make your point, at least get it right first!
Sarcasm people! Sarcasm!
I was surprised to find this "quote" of mine, on this particular website. :)
(It sure made my day; may God bless, and i appreciate the 15 seconds of fame.)
It should be noted, that I'm a liberal, and a gay rights activist,
SO you can't blame god for this, blame the liberals for supporting the sinners, that caused God's wrath.
Just like you can't blame a husband for beating his wife, I suppose. After all, she deserved it for not getting home from work in time to make his dinner.
here's a thought:
God is actually so sick of hearing you fuckwits raging on other human beings that he is sending death from above. And instead of exclusively saving the righteous and punishing the evil he wants to confuse you so the game is more fun for him to play.
And we all know aids was just from an alien fucking a gay ape in africa.
There's that, or the logical conclusion that we can't blame god. But mostly 'cos he isn't there to take your call of complaint.
> It should be noted, that I'm a liberal, and a gay rights activist,
And people are still replying, as though this were serious?!
PAY ATTENTION PEOPLE!
Isn't God omnipotent? If he doesn't like homosexuality, he could make everyone heterosexual.
It's as stupid to punish because of acceptance of homosexuality, as it is to punish because of acceptance of tall people.
The sin of Sodom was inhospitability and greed, stupid. They did not help the poor and needy.
Perhaps God was punishing America for its behavior to the poor and needy
Why the small "s" in AIDS? Either it's Aids or AIDS, surely?
Edit. Poe's law apparently. If you're a gay rights activist; why are you helping anti-human-rights activists? You sound exactly like THEM, even the spelling errors are in place. So how are we supposed to know that you're not sincere?
“SO you can't blame god for this, blame the liberals for supporting the sinners, that caused God's wrath.”
No, if God’s the one issuing punishments without making SURE that the people know why they’re being punished, then God’s a fucking dick.
I mean, if i come home and there’s trash in the yard and i TOLD the kids to clean the yard, and i just go in and spank everyone, without telling them why, or seeing if they DID clean the yard, that trash blew over outside of their control, I’m a fucking dick.
Also, if i say, “Don’t blame me for the spanking, YOU guys failed the rules,” that’s child abuse logic.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
