| Well God hates gay people so much he wanted to finish off the ones that went to Houston. Or maybe he's a racist. |

If God is doing that to Galveston for a little festival, I can't wait to see what he does to Las Vagus.

| Maybe God's pissed off about all the oil rigs the beautiful Gulf of Mexico he created 6,000 years ago. He's just trying to clean things up a bit. But of course one wonders why the heck he put oil under that pretty Gulf when he created it in the first place if not to be pumped out and refined by the Faithful. |

Obvoiusly, the silly bastards failed to learn their lesson the first time. quote:
The burg of Galveston, Texas, bustled on Saturday, September 8, 1900. It was a busy place, rivaling New Orleans in shipping and culture: the city was to be Texas' bright, bold future. It had an opera house and 37,000 productive, happy citizens. And sitting in his carriage on the beach that morning was bumbling meteorologist Isaac Cline, firmly convincing himself that the city wasn't going to be obliterated that week. He did a pretty good job at that for just less than week.
Isaac thought he knew it all, and he honestly believed there was nothing left to learn about the weather. He had various gizmos and an overly healthy ego with which to combat any nagging doubts anybody else had. In 1891, after Galveston had survived a moderately nasty storm, he wrote for the Galveston News:
The opinion held by some[1] who are unacquainted with the actual conditions of things, that Galveston will at some time be seriously damaged by some such disturbance, is simply an absurd delusion.
In short, he was a perfect example of a US Bureau of Meteorology man. The Bureau, run by director Willis Moore, suffered a deservedly dismal reputation because it did things like ban the use of the word "tornado" in order not to ruff the feathers of the natives. The men in charge decided that natural disasters made them look bad and figured the best way around the PR problem was to understate the severity of inclement weather. They also banned the terms "cyclone" and "hurricane". We presume that a major storm forecast could now be termed as "light choppy seas" or "possible showers".
At least they're not lying about it again, but the score will soon be: Hurricane 2, Galvaston 0.

Texas was Katrina's target.... god obviously missed, so he brewed up another cat5 and pitched again.
The fundies will never admit it, but god is pissed at TX for voting for G.W. Bush.
