Oh look, Bastard carries a torch for me with his sig how cute! ;o)

Naw, it is just such a funny phrased thing. I was going to use the "I want to know why" because it made me laugh more, but I thought that it wouldn't make much sense by itself.

I imagined that like Cindy Lou Who looking at the Grinch when he stole the presents.

Like someone standing next to a Tornado and saying "Why tornado, why do you destroy our land" only it wouldn't reply with the fact its heart is 3 times too small, it would just say "cause I am a tornado motherfucker!"

I just find the idea of someone wanting to understand a tornado funny.

LOL, yes, I have got the reference to Cindy LouWho before!

I saw a tornado once appx 350 yards away from me but it was about an F1 to an F3.

On my 18th birthday one hit down around here, my step dad was on Search and Rescue and got the call. It was actually really weirdly time, cause I blew out the candles, like "oh, make a wish" and the phone rang right after. he looked at me and said "jesus, what the hell did you wish for".

Natural Disasters are a scary thing, but I never try to understand why they happen, I just accept they do. I mean, I am sure in terms of climate change and other factors, there are some contributing factors as to why they happen more frequently than before. But I do not know enough about that subject to say anything that would resemble an educated opinion on that subject, so just leave it there.

But regardless of those changes, they happen.

I have a hard time swallowing either pill.

I do not think that "God" (I would like to tell me exactly what God is, and why he would need people to come back to him)

This was just a work of nature, there is no bigger spiritual play at work. It is just nature being nature, and doing what it does. No reason, other than the fact it is nature.

I agree. When I was in Christchurh earthquakes that killed 160~ people I absolutely saw it as natures movement of the tetonic plates. Twisters are created bye the atmosphere another form of nature as high and low pressure systems move through with different types of fronts and changes in air pressure.

Just for the record... I never said I didn't believe in science or nature! Just wanted to open minds to the possibility things happen for reasons we often don't know right away.

Usually what I find it is (oversimplified) is to help us grow and learn in some area.

BastardofYoung · 05-24-2013, 01:32 AM

I just have a hard time believing that this God character would call people in that way. Wasn't the whole point of the flooding of the arc to say that no disaster after would happen by him?

Maybe that is just exclusive to floods.. I dunno.

But even I did believe in God, my first response to that would be, why would he take children? why not take someone who lived their lives, not someone who was just starting theirs? doesn't make sense to me.

But either way, that is not a possibility at all. That is just something I feel people say to try to take reality away from, well, reality. There is no deeper meaning to any of this.

okay?.....

did I miss something.

Thats what i was trying to figure out, Bastard. I dont have time to decode cryptic comments from the psychologically deformed and for him to do so on a thread like this shows no respect for the dead. FYI he showed pics of an old lady drunk, followed by Rambo. O.0
