Just because a Quack says it....doesn’t mean it’s NOT true...

Bizarre, I think, that 2 of the major symbols of DC, the Washington Monument and the (yes, unofficial) National Cathedral are severely damaged, while everything else is more or less unscathed.

Is Deism—and it’s absent “god” who never communicates with (it’s/his) Creation—now the National Religion, even amidst Conservatives?

Just because Pat Robertson says it, makes something wrong?

Sounds pretty bigoted to me...

Agreed. PR has been seriously off base at times, but I don’t find this to be a stretch at all. God does intervene in the affairs of men. We have as a nation strayed from the principles upon which this republic was founded and there are serious issues that must be addressed. This weakening of foundational (Judeo-Christian) principles was apparent long before they showed up in the Washington Monument.

From a biblical understanding, there is no such thing as chance. God in his grace does warn us.

So all the Christians about to be hit by Irene had it coming?

Please. Robertson is an idiot.

Not bizarre, and "everything else" was not left unscathed. Many building suffered structural damage. There may not have been too many complete building failures (though a few did partially fall), but there are lots of chimney's down, concrete stairwells and sidewalks full of cracks, and other assorted damage in a fairly wide area around DC.

I agree with you. Not all who write on this site are Conservatives by any measure.

To absorb vibrations in rear differentials, FORD used to put a long piece of metal with a lump of vibration deadening material at the end. It would 'dampen' the vibration.

Vibrations have a tendency to travel along(up) something like the Monument or Cathedral Spires, and without a dead mass at the top, they vibrate like crazy.

Perhaps SHAPE has more to do with this than the HAND OF GOD.
