From salon.com:
When Hurricane Katrina struck land in Louisiana, an antiabortion group called
the Columbia Christians for Life declared that the storm was God's way of
punishing New Orleans residents for allowing "child-murder-by-abortion centers"
to operate among them. Al-Qaida apparently believes that Katrina was God's way
of punishing the United States -- and New Orleans in particular -- for its
tolerance of homosexuality. But right-to-lifers and terrorist groups aren't the
only ones with interesting Katrina theories to share: Nation of Islam leader
Louis Farrakhan is suggesting Katrina is God's way of punishing the United
States for the war in Iraq -- and that the federal government may have
intentionally destroyed levees in New Orleans during the storm to rid the city
of its African-American residents.

Does anyone still wonder why I'm anti-religion?
FILM FLAM
This week's drive in visit was the last one organized by degenerate SG, but
there's still a few warm evenings and worthy movies for the drive in so if
you're interested in continuing the habit (or picking it up) for the next couple
of weeks email me. I'm thinking of catching Roll Bounce next week - roller disco
at the drive in, hell yeah!
This week we caught Tim Burton's Corpse Bride. If you loved Nightmare Before
Christmas you'll like this one too. Corpse Bride has less singing and less
interesting characters than Nightmare, visually speaking. I was ok with less
singing but I was a little dissappointed in the visuals. I also found the plot a
bit slow and predictable. Once the novelty of the animation wears off the movie
wears a bit thin. I think both Corpse Bride and Nightmare Before Christmas would
make better hour-long specials for the holidays rather than full-length
pictures.
