“New Orleans formally embraced homosexuality for tourism dollars and look where that went.”

Where did it go? You’re suggesting that the hurricane damage bore some relation to gay activity in the city? As far as I can tell, the most decadent (and gayest) parts of the city were very well-preserved during the floods and are back up and booming. The hardest-hit neighborhoods were ones that certainly never seen a Gay Pride float.

It may have been cooincidence, but an earthquake and tidal wave devasted the area in the middle east which pandered to homosexuality and child prostitution just before a big homosexual conclave was to meet there. And again this happened in New Orleans, again just when big homosexual doings were to pop. I happen to think that God removes his protection from countries, or areas where people are going against His law. Will we never learn?

New Orleans is not booming--even in the French Quarter. I was there a couple months ago and the restaurants were half-empty on a Friday night. Some of the business owners I spoke to were lamenting the fact that they might have to close up shop because their insurance races are through the roof and the tourist dollars have not come back.
