    I’m sure the families are all super-perplexed that God chose to smite their little girls.

    Recently, four women on a girl’s weekend in Florida, took shelter under a beach cabana during a sudden storm. The cabana got hit by lightning, and knocked all of them unconscious. They recovered, and one of them was on the news, saying in her thick southern drawl that she was praying and thanking God for protecting them.

    I was so shocked, I yelled at the TV “Honey, have you forgotten that being struck by lightning is God’s traditional method of smiting people he HATES? If there’s a God, he wasn’t trying to save you, he was trying to KILL you!”

    Religious people who are being rampaged by natural disasters should really be reconsidering their version of religion. It seems that their God isn’t on board with their choices.
