GOD IS PUNISHING US FOR BUSH’S PRIDE

By Peter Fredson

September 3, 2005

I went to the local grocery store to get some hot-dog buns. While there I greeted an old lady, a Baptist neighbor. “How are you doing today,” I asked.

“Not too good. I’ve been watching the TV news about the terrible hurricane on the Gulf Coast, and I’m all upset.”

“Yes,” I said, in agreement with her, “All that death and destruction is terrible news, and our officials seem to be stumbling in the dark about giving prompt aid.”

“Well,” she said, “I’ve been praying for answers from God. I asked him why he caused all the horror. Then a great light came over me, and I heard him tell me why all this happened.”

“Oh,” I remarked, with great interest.

“Yes,” she replied, “God said he was going to show the Americans what all the death and destruction that Bush caused in Iraq was like. And God said that Bush committed the sin of pride, and needed a lesson in humility. So that’s what happened.”

“You may be right,” I said, “I hope he takes this lesson to heart.”

Then I paid for the hot-dogs and went home, wondering it were possible for a petulant, irritable, irresponsible president to even consider the possibility that he might have been mistaken in declaring war on a far-distant land.

Meanwhile, the hurricane season is only half-over. Let’s see what develops.

  • I am not sure that all this happenned for the benefit for Bush.

    I think it is more (1) a simple test from the creator for all of us and (2) a test for the White Man in America. The reaction of the Whites is all too predictable. I’ve had people tell me that they will not be giving any money to the effort but they might consider giving blood. Since there hasn’t been a call for blood donations — they are quite safe from contributing anything at all.

    It is said in various versions of the bible that the wicked will be given oportunities to be wicked and the receiver of the wickedness will be given the the results.

    God tests men against men in his trails.

    Enjoy, because the results of these [wicked] peoples will be twice as much as anything they encountered in this life.

  • Don’t use GOD for Americans it is SATAN! Obviously did the satanist in the White House not pay his dues to the devil.

    But don’t let us joke. By now it is predictable that the Gulf of Mexico will experience more and more violent storms and hurricans.

    You can betray your people, your mind, your believe, but you can’t betray nature. Pandoras box has been opened by the energy hungry lifestyles of our century. We can’t no longer take excuses.

    I’m sure FOX news or other propaganda channels will find a cooperating scientist who claims there is no global warming! But does it help?

    Example of positive attitudes:

    house starting to burn. Negative attitude somebody cries fire, fire.... (normal people)
    Positive attitude - look how beautiful the flames are (Americans).

    Go ahead it is your house!

  • since we went into iraq...i have often asked..."what must God think of us?"...how can any christian justify the act of war?...it is hypocritical...

    but to actively pursue the death and destruction of thousands of people...to wage war on an entire country that has NOT waged war on us...is evil...and worthy of retribution...

    i consider God to be a loving God...but if in fact he is "punishing" us...then so be it...

    we...as a country...have foolishly re elected a man who would take us to war until false premises...a man who has been "told" by God what to do...not MY God...i can assure you of that...

    what WOULD jesus do?...and what will bush and his minions do when the walls come tumbling down?...

    the expression "love it or leave it" does NOT apply here...a true patriot questions it’s government...and has the right to do so...although the "right" to question has been seriously tested these last few years...

    i KNOW i am not alone in my disenchantment...but some days i wonder...

    thank you for your time...

    i am...a deeply ashamed citizen of these united states...

  • That is a way I didn’t look at this. I made a comment today to my family that it was ironic that Sept 11 after he got elected we lost the trade center and such. Now almost Sept the year after electing him again, we have this devastation. I wonder if it is about him .....

  • Grandma and Alzwarqui (Iraq’s freedom fighter chief) have a lot in common. Alzwarqui also said that God "Ala" was punishing the United States..."Our prayers have been answered," he said. In other words our God is bigger than yours. What they do not have in common is that Alzwarqui has a 25million dollar bounty on him by Bushco.
