I have to admit, after yesterday's East Coast quake, I expected some yayhoo to suggest it was a warning from God. Well, like clockwork, WorldNutDaily's Joseph Farah says exactly that. He argues that coupled with the approach of Hurricane Irene, it's a sign that God isn't pleased.
Many Americans are scratching their heads today wondering what in the world is going on with a rare earthquake hitting the East Coast to be followed by a hurricane a few days later.
It reminds us that our world can change very quickly.
Things don't always stay the same.
Occasionally God really does shake things up as a sign to us of the consequences of disobedience and indifference to our Creator.
Farah then suggests that we were actually lucky--in his view, the earthquake was "a warning only," but a much bigger one is on the way.
In typical style, Farah doubles down by suggesting that the capital actually should have gotten worse.
Washington, D.C., deserves more than the wallop it got today. It needs a much bigger shaking up than it got. And I have no doubts that it is coming – unless there is a real change of heart in the leadership of this country.
After all, if America doesn't face judgment soon, God will have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah. And God doesn't offer apologies.
He does, however, offer second chances, third chances, fourth chances …
Unbelievable. So Farah is actually wishing that things were actually worse than they were? The mind reels.
