Would be nice if they could at least blame god. They'd rather blame drag queens for upsetting god.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure if God is upset at anyone, it's the people claiming he's upset at drag queens. But that's just my own limited understanding, and I do not claim to know the mind of God.

I mean obviously depends on the god... but if we are going with the judeo christian god. He does a lot of insane things for very little.

Floods the earth for being evil

Kids mock a bald man... God sends a pack of bears to kill them.

Woman turns around and glances at her home town being destroyed, turned to salt.

Quite simply god of the old testament bible is pretty all over the place on what he'll punish large swaths of people for. Though while I'd note he didn't worry much on collateral damage. He didn't miss his targets (IE... sure I could see the god of the bible letting a hurricane kill millions in the bible belt on it's way to hit LA or New York... but doesn't seem those storms have a great track record of reaching the people they think god wants to punish.

Other comments are wrong to blame this on "stupidity" instead of corrupt profit seeking incentives.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Right. They're a lot of things, but stupid isn't one of those things.

This is true if we ignore monotheism and go with one of the -isms where humanity is god.

David J. Darling, renown astrophysicist, proposed that we are actually God, capital G. That we evolve into a universal collective God consciousness and reach back through time to create ourselves.

Oh don't worry. They believe it's man made, just not in the way you want.

"Democrats are creating hurricanes to kill republicans"

Also

"Climate change isn't man-made"

People are generally ignorant and stupid.

Neat, huh?

[–] turtlepower@lemm.ee 4 points 10 hours ago

Yup. Which is why we need to bring back the guillotine.
