(no subject)
I overheard something today which I hear often and annoys the piss out of me:
"All this bad stuff happening in the world today mus have happened because of the judgement of go-ud (the multisyllabic pronunciation of "god" which people around here are so fond of using)."
So, let me get this straight, the Japanese earthquake of 1923 which killed over 100,000 people and the Holocaust which led to millions of deaths and countless other no-good very bad things were just fun little garden parties in history.
But now we've made god mad with our horrible, terrible sins like letting gay people on TV and believing in evolution. And all of a sudden we get these terrible, horrible punishments like Katrina and Iraq which have eliminated a whopping not-even-close-to 1% of our population.
Boy, don't make that go-ud guy angry.
By the way:
Katrina:: Likely caused by the increase in hurricane nastiness associated with global warming (which is mostly our fault, you know, emissions and such)
Iraq:: Our choice (well the choice of those in power, who were for some reason elected by us)
The world isn't worse than it used to be, but the horrible no good things happening now...you guessed it, caused by us.
We need no wrathful god to destroy us, we have ourselves to do it for us.
