Pot, kettle
Some notions are just plain silly. Hurricane Katrina was sent to punish America for rampant immorality, we all know that. We all know that Katrina was specifically sent to punish sexual offenses: homosexuality and abortion. Rabbi Yehuda Levin explains:Levin, a vocal leader in the pro-family movement, asserts that God does not visit significant calamities or punishments on the world in a merely coincidental way. According to Levin, although people may never completely know what God had in mind with Hurricane Katrina, he still judges sin. Also, the rabbi points out that a horrified public saw "in the aftermath of the flood that there was a significant amount of sexual crime, rape going on there. We know the Days of Decadence immorality, homosexual immorality -- they were expecting at least 125,000 people literally at the time that the flood struck. I mean, I don't think it takes a spiritual rocket scientist to make the connection."
Here's the truly funny part. After claiming that God sent Katrina to punish poor people in New Orleans because a bunch of pointy-headed liberals in Massachusetts think it's okay for homosexuals to marry, Levin pooh-poohs another idea:
But while some Jewish leaders have suggested that God may have sent Katrina to punish the U.S. for urging the evacuation of thousands of Jewish settlers from their land in Gaza, Levin is quick to dismiss that notion.
No shit, Sherlock. God cares way more about sex than some promise to restore the Jewish homeland and rebuild some musty old temple. There's plenty of time to punish people for delaying the second coming AFTER we drown a bunch of nursing home patients because the Indigo Girls played at somebody's prom.

Thing about these nimrods that amazes me is this:
In the Old Testament, God tells Lot that He's going to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah (sp??) for their wickedness. Lot says "excuse me, but what if I find 100 righteous men?" God says, "If you can find 100, I'll cancel my plan." Lot then says, "pardon me, but what if I find 50?" God says, "OK, if you find 50, I'll spare the cities for their sake." Lot presses on, and eventually bargains God down to 1. "If you can find one righteous person, I will spare the cities for their sake."
So, I guess that either New Orleans didn't have Lot negotiating for it, or there wasn't at least one righteous person on the whole Gulf coast, or these religious nazis are so screwed up it's UFB!!!!
