Hmmmm........a vengeful God, ya think?
Ohio's top Republican lawmaker, Senate President Bill Harris, slipped on ice outside a hotel near the Statehouse in Columbus, broke a leg and missed the governor's State of the State address Wednesday.

from article covering effects of the snow storm.

Hey...it's their god, not mine, who is vengeful.

1. Don't ever expect a believer to say that.
When something bad happens to one of their lunatics, it's the work of Satan. It's only when good people get hurt that it's that vengeful god of theirs.

Personally, I won't believe in that particular god until every televangelist is reduced to a pair of smoking Bruno Maglis by lightning strikes.

2. The mission at San Juan Capistrano like most of the CA missions
was built with slave labor. But compared to Africans, Native Americans did not make good slaves; they tended to prefer death to enslavement.

Sometime shortly after construction was completed, a Sunday morning earthquake brought the church roof down killing several attendees.

I don't believe in an afterlife, but I do believe in Karma.
