When Robertson dies, who will tell us why?
  • Why God?

    I, too, have never understood why people after hurricanes, etc. claim that God is behind their survival. So that means God slew everyone who didn't survive, right? What arrogance to make such claims, but then that's just what one expects of Robertson who is a junior league Elmer Gantry. What's especially disturbing, though, is the way the MSM plays into this rhetoric and routinely reports about "miracles," jsut as they're calling the surviving miner "The Miracle Miner." It's degrading and sensationalistic and as cheap as running segments on windows or dish pans that supposedly show the face of Jesus. We are more and more a nation of boobs and yahoos.
