I've been saying that God is trying to get our attention for years, since back when things started heating up in the early part of the decade. Unfortunately, I think people's hearts are hardening rather than turning to God. I've been praying that the disasters in China and Myanmar will be opportunities for God's people to turn hearts. I pray the same for the disasters here in the US.

You make God look like that grade school bully who beats up kids because he just wants attention.
Except in this case, the bully kills people and/or their livelihoods.
Note to Amanda: if you go to school and tell them that your Mom is off her rocker, chances are they'll call Child Services for you.
Oh, you're home-schooled, aren't you? Shucky-darn.
"I think people's hearts are hardening"
Sounds like the work of God, setting up another round of douchebaggery.
God is a fuckin wuss. The so called creator of the universe is "trying to get our attention". Why doesn't he just appear to everyone in the world, that would get my attention.
Oh, but that's not in their book of fairytales, so he has to be a bastard and kill people with earthquakes and tornadoes.
"I pray the same for the disasters here in the US."
Well isn't that just nice. A "True Christian" would help people out in times of need like that, instead of praying for more.
Therefore - you and the rest of your cult are not "True Christians"
So, er, fuck you? Yes, that sounds right.

Amanda's mom is a regular contributor to fundy generated nonsense, and I gathered that Amanda is no longer amongst the living, which might explain the level of insanity in het mom for a tiny little bit.
I could add that as a result of this you don't have to worry about the mental safety of Amanda as she is safely out of reach, the 'Child Services High Up in the Sky' took custody of her, but that would be ... cruel.
(Oh... darn!! now I did just that ... ah well, at least I'll get send to hell, as long as it's far far away from these 'loving' christians it's fine by me)
Obviously God doesn´t seem to care about the percentage of christian fundamentalists in the areas affected. After all the states in the bible belt are as well (if not even more) affected by disasters as other regions of the USA.
So why should one turn to god just because of a disaster if being a follower of god doesn´t mean that your region is less likely to be struck by such disasters than other regions?
Back in the day, God didn't use natural disasters to get people's attention. He'd just go a head and talk to 'em, way I remember it.
According to you, he thinks killing tens of thousands of people might get his point of love and peace across better.
Of course when you pray for such disasters you don't include yourself and your immediate family. You just want them to happen to everyone else, namely groups you don't like, like athiests and homosexuals.
You know, If I thought praying worked I would pray that the Chinese would build earthquake resistant buildings. But since prayer doesn't work I,d be all for teaching them how to construct such buildings.
God: I will force you love me by killing thousands of you in a violent, indisciminate fashion. That'll prove how worthy I am of your adoration.
Amanda's Mom doesn't seem to realise she's worshipping a tyrant.
OK
god doesn't try to get our attention (say) by an unpredicted solar eclipse, a pillar of fire in St Peter's Square, or anything else wonderful.
he just kills people
he, and she, fails.
These selfish, self-righteous people make me sick. When a disaster happens, my church comes together to donate supplies and aid to the victims. Our priest doesn't thunder about the supposed "sins" of the dead and say that it was the just punishment of God. You give us a bad name, you sanctimonious twit.
haha. I can just imagine God, sitting in heaven thinking:
Oh, I know, I'll send a natural disaster to kill half a million people in some third-world country that is allready plagued by such things naturally. That'll get all the atheists to believe in me."
Fucking vulture!
@Darn:"Amanda's mom is a regular contributor to fundy generated nonsense, and I gathered that Amanda is no longer amongst the living, which might explain the level of insanity in het mom for a tiny little bit."
This raises a few questions, such as which one happened first, Amanda's death or her mother's insanity, and whether or not there is a causal link.

God Outdoes Terrorists Yet Again
You've been talking shit, woman.
Praying for "disasters of opportunity" now? How about one that strikes your town, your home, your family, and leaves you with absolutely nothing, not even your goddamn book.
You'd think God could get people's attention by whisking everyone out of harm's way during an earthquake, or healing everyone in an oncology ward, or maybe eliminating poverty and hunger. That would be a god worth following.
Yes, because it's much better to pray for natural disasters to hit poor people, than to actually help them. That's why Jesus constantly wiped out his followers with tornadoes, rather than feeding them.
" I've been saying that God is trying to get our attention for years, since back when things started heating up in the early part of the decade. Unfortunately, I think people's hearts are hardening rather than turning to God"
Hey, God knew it would happen. Really, what kind of a dick knows everything that's ever going to happen and yet still somehow manages to fail quite so badly ??
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
