Speaking of people using Katrina

NEW ORLEANS STILL NEEDS YOUR HELP

DONATE NOW!

Let's see, which appropriation of Katrina is the ugliest?

The people who say it's due to global warming?

The people who say it's due to abortion?

The people who say it's due to the sinfulness of New Orleans?

In the global warming claims (the general view of science is that global warming was not specifically related to Katrina, by the way) it's an amorphous "mankind's" fault. In the latter two, New Orleans had all this death and devastation coming since they're sinners.

At least the global warming people don't say Louisiana deserved it. The other two claims do. Seems like a broader 'the lady deserved to be raped' claim, and just as intelligent and mature.

"Judge not, lest ye be judged." Do any of these Christian groups happen to recall this phrase?
