http://www.minutemenunited.org/modules.php?name=News&file=print&sid=323 Katrina Means Purity, Cleansing Date: Friday, September 09, 2005 Many are wondering aloud why God would allow such a horrible catastrophe to befall our nation. But as a wise man once said, "words mean things". Is it possible that the Lord is trying to send a message to our nation? A year ago when hurricane Ivan was threatening New Orleans, many church leaders were crying out to the Lord for mercy, for salvation for New Orleans, for a turn from sin. At the last hour, Ivan tracked to the east and the "Big Easy" was spared. The name Ivan is Russian for John, and means "God is Gracious." A year later, after New Orleans refused to head the warning of God, hurricane Katrina visited her wrath upon the city. What is little reported is that the storm hit on the eve of the nation's largest gathering ever of homosexuals and deviant sexual behavior in the city of New Orleans. Southern Decadence (www.southerndecadence.com) was to kick off on August 31 with the blessing of the leaders of the city. Long the cesspool of America, New Orleans was flooded by Katrina. It is interesting to note that Katrina is German for Katherine which means "purity or cleansing."
Interesting coincidence... So why would NOLA be punished and not other American towns? Sin is everywhere, isn't it?
not saying i agree or disagree with it, just something i found interesting and could cause some good debate.
I think I got it. It should have come during MARDI GRAS... so much "sin" going on... sheesh... how untimely of Katrina...
What does it mean in Jamaica? It killed about 20 people there. Or in Grenada. Another 40 or so died there. What about in the other US states it hit where anywhere from 14-40 people died?
Or maybe those islamic dudes talking about america, you know another one's coming (though still scard since my mom's living in houston. Come on, I don't think god wants to or have us kill anybody, it's a not in his agenda anymore. Jesus died for our sins to end all of that. I don't know what books those "christians" were reading, but I thought me and the big man in the sky is cool now.
Hey! My god likes the boobs for beads policy of New Orleans. As a mater off fact he created both boobs and beads.
What's the debate? Everyone knows Thor and Odin hate black people and jazz music. Damn the Norse Gods!!!
(1) That original article makes me feel sorry for the idiot who wrote it. (2) Loki is totally into the Rebirth Brass Band, there is no way he would let that happen.
Sodom and Gomorrah comes to mind. Some places are more sinful than others, and no I'm not saying New Orleans deserved this. It isn;t in my place to judge whether anyone deserves anything.
