- While you are considering the possibilities,it would be prudent to keep in consideration the posibility that the bible is correct in its warnings to heed God and the laws of morality. Fires can be started by people, but people can''''t start floods, hurricanes,drought earthquakes,tornados,tsunamies.

LOL
Assume god is real and omnipotent. If so, seems like he/she could send a more unambiguous message. After all, fires, tornadoes, etc are merely natural events that can easily be explained.
For example, how about if god replaced Las Vegas with a giant porcelain toilet 5 miles high? Or caused one of those phony televangelist to spontaneously combust during a live broadcast? Or did something really useful, like growing the arms and legs back on our Iraq war vets? - Reply to this comment
- I hope we have cleared that up.
I am considering only possibilities, likelihoods of some fires, in the future, eventually being caused by some extremists if the rest of us do not get in line with what THEY think is proper moral conduct and with what THEY think is proper reverence to the Lord. I think those possibilities are pretty d@mmed good

"Pretty short sighted and and biased of you to suggest that perhaps these fires were started by christians when its known that lightning is the cause...." Posted by jankebenz at 01:58 PM : Jul 10, 2008
"...I have kept a fairly close eye on the events down in northern California and have not heard of any-man caused fires so I am NOT ACCUSING (my emphasis) anyone of anything - yet...." Posted by LloydBest1 at 12:54 PM : Jul 10, 2008

Pretty short sighted and and biased of you to suggest that perhaps these fires were started by christians when its known that lightning is the cause. As a matter of fact it was reported that an unprecedendted amount of lightning was responsible for the fires. Now I,m not saying that God sent the lightning as punishment for immorality,but it would,nt surprise me if that were the case. Who then are the wing nuts if after being warned by the bible and many people as to the consequences of sin,keep right on practicing and promoting immorality . The bible is cystal clear that blessings will come to the God fearing nation, and calamities to those that rebel against him. - Reply to this comment

Here is the proof that is BS! - Reply to this comment

- In view of some of the mean spirited rantings by the more hysterical elements of the Christian Right, I have to wonder if a few of them might think they can help things along if they set a few fires themselves.
Perhaps it is already being done?
I have kept a fairly close eye on the events down in northern California and have not heard of any-man caused fires so I am not accusing anyone of anything - yet.
But if Eric Rudolph and the Rev. Paul Hill can use scripture as a basis for defending their awful crimes, then it ain''t too much of a stretch to assume one or two of these wing nuts will also. To them, spreading their message is of all consuming importance. If that means burning innocent people out of their homes and even killing a few of them, so be it... - Reply to this comment

- Don''t you know these poor folks are just about at the end of their rope? The firefighters have been at this nearly a month now. They must be exhausted and ready to go home.
God bless them all. - Reply to this comment
- ...I don''[t know what GOP said...it looks like it was removed.
Here, east of Sacramento its nearly impossible to breathe outside and not so easy inside. It''s been like this since around June 20th.
Is God punishing Calif. for the legalization of Gay marriage? Could be.
I suggest watching out for brimstone. - Reply to this comment
- GOP_forever....I hope your comment is removed and you are banned from commenting on this site forever. Yes this is a free country but you are one of the types of people i wish I didnt go over to Iraq for and defend. Your comment is both ignorant and mean. How can you wish bodily harm or even death on a person just becuase your religion seems to encourage blindness anddeafness to anyone different than you?
