Natural Disaters or Gods Wrath?

Question

Has anyone noticed the negativity that is spreading like wild fire!
The shootings in the virginia college
These floodings all over New Jersey and the death tolls associated with them all.

It seems if you add up every event, to date from just 10 years ago, you would have an interesting case for Gods Wrath, through natural disasters according to religious doctrine.....

And it doesn't matter what religion you adhere to, whats your opinion of this?

Answer 1

ok. It has been pretty scary this last year with all the things happening. When you look at the twisters, hurricanes, war,
Anna Nicole, Don Imus, increase of murder, more secularism than religion, war and the latest shooting at Vir. Tech you have to really sit back and wonder.

Tom Delay just wrote a book that proclaims the end of the world in less than 50 years. He quotes the Bible and it's signs as proof. I'm not a religious nut by any means but when I heard this book being discussed on TV I listened and it scared me. There really is tons of religious signs that we have gone too far .. I don't think the world will end but I think we have to start changing things or it will end. We are destroying each other and the planet...how long will it take man to wake up and acknowledge the part they do play and start making a difference?

Answer 2

pay attention of the fake prophet. human beings have expected issues like this for hundreds of years. If this became into all God became into able to, we could do what we would like. So no, i do no longer have confidence it incredibly is God's Wrath. WWII became into plenty extra intense as have been any wars earlier or when you consider that. while something like the Indonesian tsunami in December 1996 happens international huge, then i think of we are getting close.

Answer 3

Violence is was and always will be a part of human nature. To say that God wanted a man to take a gun and kill innocent people is as outrageous as it is sad.

The Floodings are a result of a Nor'easter, a common Atlantic storm that occurs at this time of year.

So that's two things. You think that these two things add up to God's Wrath? Wrong, wrong, wrong...

Answer 4

The reason why it seems that these incidents are increasing year after year is not because there are more natural disasters or other bad things happening. It is because the reporting on them is increasing due to improved technology. Even 10 years ago the news was not as instantaneous as it is today. With the increase in use of things such as you tube, now everyone can know what everyone else is doing.

Answer 5

One of the driving forces behind the invention of God was the need to explain natural disasters. However, the earth has been flooding, erupting, quaking, and storming for a very long time. It's only since the advent of "thinking man", that an explanation is even needed.

Answer 6

I think that this has nothing to do with the wrath of a fictitious god. There is ample evidence that most of the trauma that society has endured over the past ten years is explainable in the form of a man made set of circumstances, such as global warming, to natural disasters that are unpredictable, like the 2004 tsunami.

Answer 7

More people, less rescources = overpopulation, war, less people getting the sort of helpo they need and going crazy.

As far as natural disasters, there were these 'disasters' happening naturally on Earth for years before humankind inhabited the place, and I dont see why God would get pissed at animals and smite them with an earthquake, or a hurricane.

Answer 8

Actually if you read the book of Revelations the wrath of God that will be poured out on those who did not believe in Christ is much, much worse than the natural disasters, shootings, hunger, and wars we see today. The Bible says something like only one sixth of all mankind will be left after Gods wrath ends.

PS: Those who do accept Christ and do not renounce their faith will be caught up in the clouds with Jesus when He returns before Gods wrath is poured out.

Answer 9

I stubbed my toe this morning, wonder if god made it happen!

Buried my wife in 1996 from a freak aneurysm, Made me loose direction for quite a while but I never blamed God or the Devil for it! The crazy's were created by the people who took parental authority away from the parents! Its how a law is followed to the point of stupidity!

Sorry it would have been wrong to punish my son for killing every cat in the neighbor hood so be happy that he is all grown up and going through sniper school in the Army now!

Answer 10

I don't know if what is happening is unusual or if the world has just become so connected that we now here of things that we would not have heard of in the past. We are in the information era and I don't think there are accurate enough records to compare what has happened in the past 10 years to decades past. I do see your thinking, I just don't think that the resources are available to know if something is going down.
