I have been thinking much about this in the last few days.

1st. Nobody is innocent of sin.

2nd. If God did not create the hurricane then He is not omnipotent.

We don't have to understand it, but it would not be the first time. The flood, Sodom and Gomorrah among others. Romans, Ephesians and other books as well refer to times such as this.

Imagine the look the the world is getting of decadence as the pack of wild rats run from place to place wreaking havoc and living in their swoller, trying to protect and preserve it even.

The sinful world is a dreadful place and people need to repent and turn from their evil ways or suffer the wrath.

Romans tells us that God causes ALL things to work for the good of those who love Him and are called according to his purpose. The Tsunami, Islam, Katrina all give us a look at the power of God and therefore no one is with excuse for not recognizing the existence and omnipotence of God. I mean come on, look at the sacrifice he made. Do you not think He created the plan of death of Christ? you don't think he planned Katrina?

I know it sounds bizarre but I don't see how it could have been otherwise.

Try reading your Bible rather then skiming the highlights.

In the case of the flood there was only one good person left on earth. In the case of Sodom and Gomorrah there were not 10 good left in the whole valley.

I know for a fact there were a LOT more then 10 good in NO.

Try this verse instead, "It rains on the just and the unjust."
