Whenever a disaster occurs, there are always people trying to capitalize on it to get rich, famous, or just to attack others for political gain. The earthquake in Haiti is a prime example of this. Pat Robertson came out this past week and claimed that the earthquake and many other troubles throughout their history is a result of their making a pact with the devil in exchange for victory over the French. Thus Pat Robertson said that countless scholars and religious figures over the centuries believe the country is cursed and so he says this is why the earthquake happened. Basically God is holding a 200 plus year grudge against them.
Then we have the MSM deciding to use the moment to personally attack Rush Limbaugh for saying he does not think we should give our money to Obama to help the Haitians. While we will inevitably see Obama eventually use this disaster to prop up his god complex by pointing out how much better he is then Bush was at responding to disasters. Eventually his sycophantic followers will point out that we need to continue worshiping and praying in his name for good things to happen.

Then we have Danny Glover who would like to claim that the earth is angry because we failed to get a comprehensive global warming treaty signed at Copenhagen. Take a look at this video of Danny Glover & Marie St. Cyr are speaking on the phone with Laura Flanders of GRITtv about the disaster in Haiti. The way I see it, if I was going to blame anyone for this disaster, I prefer to think God might be angry before I would think the earth is. Also, if I am going to give my hard earned money away to help the efforts of the Haitian people, I think I would prefer donating to a Christian charity instead of Obama's administration website.
I plan on writing about the Haitian disaster and God's part in it tomorrow when I write my Sunday message. However allow be to say categorically that God does not target geographical areas of the world to punish the sin of men. He will one day return with a sword and separate the wheat from the chaff, but that is in the end when all men will see the wrath of the lamb. Otherwise I want someone to explain to me why San Fransisco still exists. Like I said watch for my Sunday morning message tomorrow or check out my blog Gate of the City after 6:00 AM.
