Well, OP, God works in mysterious ways.
That’s why we call it “God’s mysterious ways”
Well, if you listen to that steaming pant load Pat Robertson (which no one should), God is upset that the Haitians made a deal with the devil to oust the French. God has been punishing them ever since. Apparently God is in tight with the French. Probably why Ottawa has been catering to them for so long and look how good Canada has it…no poverty, no earthquakes, no hurricanes, no decimated infrastructure. Damn, God loves us Canucks.
less to do with God and more to do with techtonic plates shifting…
they do have a fault line right there, it was bound to happen eventually.
it’s not rocket appliances.
well…making voodoo dolls sounds a lot more reasonable than listening to these pious pontificating pookas
I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST HAITI, WHY DO YOU ASK. I JUST DISH OUT SHIT TO EVERYONE, SOME MORE DESERVING THAN OTHERS, YOUR TURN IS TOMORROW.
thank you giant spaghetti monster
BUAHAHAHA LS I almost choked on my lunch!!! Practically had a Tim Horten’s chick club coming out my nose.
Pat Robertson…phffft.
He also said:
“The feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians.”
We are NOT out to destroy capitalism!
teehee, that doofus with very few words can insult billions
Wait until Pat reads this:
Medical Dictionary
Main Entry: fem·i·nism
Pronunciation: ‘fem-&-“niz-&m
Function: noun
: the presence of female characteristics in males
I prefer a male presence in female characters….if you catch my drift.
I love you more and more with every post, Pain…
I thought this was about a certain convienience store… I feel so misled…
I’m no deity, but if I were, I’d throw a little destruction down to remind people I exist from time to time, and also to remind people to be happy with what they have. It could be worse.
Average man becomes a god, there’s an idea for a movie. 😉
Since you asked,
The Haitians haven’t been tithing properly. It’s 10% OFF THE TOP, folks. Natural disasters are my version of an audit.
PDG, they made that movie already! It was shit!
Well, I should say parts of it were shit. Morgan Freeman is never shit.
lehova, so was the sequel
PDG, what happened to Haiti is God’s response to the travesty that is the (insert name here) Almighty series. Although, why God would hate Morgan Freeman being cast as a represenatation, is unbeknownst to me…
better than Alanis Morrisette, me thinks… though Dogma was much better than the almighty movies.
Another one of God’s racist hate crimes…
God smites those countries who are in the wrong. Bye bye Haiti.
Maybe he’s right, the Dominican Republic (on the same island) seemed to miss it. Not agreeing by any means, but throwing it out there to see the responses. Afterall it is LTWWB and sometimes ya just got ta stir it.
Or, knowing the good side from the bad, the rich pushed the poor over there when it divided. Didn’t NS do the same with Cape Breton? = )
“”The Haitians haven’t been tithing properly. It’s 10% OFF THE TOP, folks. Natural disasters are my version of an audit.””
HAHAHAHAHA
Lehova…did you make that up? that’s the funniest thing I’ve read on here in ages, can’t stop sniggering when i think of the folks that are gonna read that…posted it on FB, inquotes of course
“”I’m no deity, but if I were, I’d throw a little destruction down to remind people I exist from time to time, and also to remind people to be happy with what they have. It could be worse.”‘
Indeed it could, good point PDG!
I mean, what if there was also a drought and the Haitian women didn’t have enough water to make those delicious little mud cakes they eat?
What are they gonna eat, dirt?
Jeesh…
it’s all caused by global climate change and mother nature is exacting her revenge:)!
Frosty, I’m not sure if it’s an original or not, it just popped into my head. But I’m always happy to hear I entertained someone!
And folks, it’s Iehova. With an I! As in, the old spelling of Jehova!
god does not exist
Calvin…while I will definately agree, god doesn’t exist as per any religious groups mutterings about god & how only they know the path to god & you gotta do what they say, dress like this ,pray like this…this many times yada, yada, yada !
We know something caused a singularity on a molecular scale, to explode/expand & from that, all of the present Universe was created… Religious bullshit, useful only in its power to control people, and gather wealth for the leaders of the religion…that in no way means an omniputant power aka god, didn’t create the universe, & /or doesn’t exist .
what having so many different religions in the world today & all the past ‘dead’ religions proves to me, is that God isn’t religious & god can take a joke.
Not to mention god cares for us, about as much as I care for brussel sprouts !(which is not at all ) ~:)
Right more,
I agree that “We know something caused a singularity on a molecular scale, to explode/expand & from that, all of the present Universe was created… that in no way means an omniputant power aka god, didn’t create the universe, & /or doesn’t exist .”
But remember, our lack of knowledge as to why this explosion exploded is not evidence of the existence of a higher power either. If we believed that everything we don’t understand yet was due to a higher power we would never advance. Apparently the Pope asked Stephen Hawking and other physicists, after the big bang theory was publicized, not inquire into the big bang itself as that was “Gods work” and “the moment of creation”. Gee, I sure do wish Newton and Einstein would’ve stopped working too…
Fizz, if god didn’t want us to inquire ,explore & hypothesize , we wouldn’t be able to. The pope may be a hero to those who follow one branch of Abraham’s monotheistic tree to come out of the middle east.
I give the pope about as much credibility, as say the average panhandler in downtown Halifax. All of them are simply looking for a hand out.
BUT if I had to pick which of them were better people, then I’d pick the panhandlers…after all when was the last time you heard of the panhandlers molesting children & other panhandlers covering it up or protecting the molester, or even relocatng the molester so they can do it again ?!?
I thought so…can you say the same thing about Priests ?
That’s why I worship Thor and Odin, the warrior gods of Norse mythology. No hippy-ass turn the other cheek and get slapped twice here. Somebody fucks with you, you kill ’em with a hammer. Die in battle and Kate Winslet in copper lingerie carries you off to Valhalla on her winged steed. Of course you can be killed by a sprig of mistletoe, but that’s kind of like the Bronze age version of a peanut allergy
Boy, this “god’ character sounds like a real scary prick…worthy of our fear perhaps, but worship?
Panhandlers? Indeed! I worship good olde Rock&Roll… now move over Beethoven.
If I was ever going to worship something/someone
Your faith was strong, but you needed proof
you saw her bathing on the roof
her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to a kitchen chair
she broke your throne, she cut your hair
and from your lips she drew a hallelujah
hallelujah…..
hallelujah…..
hallelujah…..
hallelu……jah
It would be a girl like this ! ! !
ivan,i used to worship xena, the princess warrior.but the bitch got all nice and shit.
Oh yeah, Lifey, I hears ya. I quess that makes us Sunni Xenites rather than Shia’s. Of such differences are major schisms and centuries of sectarian violence born.
but she still is a hot bitch, with a sword.
Don’t get sucked into websites with that tagline. It’s not what you think and it’s definitely not what you want to see
From the absurd, Danny Glover thinks that the earthquake was caused by global warming.
that sob is plagiarizing my shit; mf i pondered that for days!
I was too busy fantasizing about Gabriella. LOL.
See Tim, this is what I meant about schisms. While Gabrielle is indeed a minor prophet in the Spankiverse “There is no Xena but Xena, and aloe is her palm balm.”
