What happened to the good old days where a natural disaster hit, everyone chipped in to help out the victims and that was it, we called it a day? After the quake everyone from youtube crazies like Tamtampamela above (I don't know how long the video above will be available, it keeps getting pulled, she's getting the death threats she rightfully deserves, turns out God is good), to Pat Robertson, to Glenn Beck are searching for religious reasons as to why such a natural disaster would happen.
Meanwhile God is probably up on high like "Bitch STFU, don't go telling people Japan is my fault, I got enough on my plate, I don't need the blame for this." I mean I know I've joked about God being spiteful and the "smoting" one before, but I highly doubt the guy decided the kick of to lent should be human tragedy, just doesn't seem in his MO.
And as for Glen Beck:
BECK: We can't see the connections here. Now look, I'm not saying God is, you know, causing earthquakes. Well -- I'm not saying that he -- I'm not not saying that either.
God -- what God does is God's business, I have no idea. But I'll tell you this: whether you call it Gaia or whether you call it Jesus -- there's a message being sent. And that is, 'Hey, you know that stuff we're doing? Not really working out real well. Maybe we should stop doing some of it.' I'm just sayin'. And -- yesterday I got home and I was thinking about all the messages that I could bring in, all the things that I could tell ya, and oh I've got stuff on Hezbollah. Oh, I have stuff on radical Islam in America that'll make your eyes fall out. Or I could just tell you the answer, and the answer is: Buckle up. Buckle up, 'cause it's going to be a bumpy ride.
Make sure you keep your arms and legs inside the car at all times. Because, things are gonna get bumpy and, just a few reminders there at the beginning as this rollercoaster takes off, always a good safety tip: Keep your arms and legs in. Don't do anything stupid, what do you say we follow the big top ten. You can call them Moses' ten commandments, or ten rules of um. What do you say we start doing those things? Because the things we are doing really suck and they're not getting better.
Mind you this isn't some youtube crazy or radical Christian like Pat Robertson, this is a major figure in this countries news media, trying to connect the dots between an ongoing disaster and some kind of religious day of reckoning.
