Good grief, I hope this Oliver Thomas is a Democrat -- otherwise the MSM will have a field day with these comments.

Note to y'all: the poor folks suffering right now in New Orleans are not the folks participating in Southern Decadence or even Mardi Gras.

True - but I'll bet you can't say that every one of the refugees are ones who consistently spoke out against the decadence either, can you? Sin is sin - whether it is committed by an individual or approved of by another individual (who perhaps does nothing but remain silent while the act of the sin is carried on by somebody else) or perhaps even if the individual disapproved of the sin, turned a blind eye because profits or their job depended on it. Let's not forget that the mayor who promoted 'Southern Decadence' was elected by the people (which assumes that the rank and file voters were giving tacit approval to bringing in this type of tourism).

In case you don't think that Christians have a responsibility in how they should behave when sin is happening around them, how else would you interpret this? Timothy 5:20 'Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.'

Exactly, only a black democrat could get away with discussing God's cleansing of New Orleans without being ripped to shreds by the media elite. Anyone else would have been "crucified" by the atheistic, socialistic, mainstream media. But the dems say nothing because they "need" 90% of the minority vote to stay in power. I can't wait for the day the democratic party eats its own as thier pollsters figure out that to maintain the 90% level, will likey mean a retreat from Roe v.Wade. That will be amusing to watch and that day is coming sooner rather than later.
