Rita, Katrina: Religious Fringe Sees Apocalypse Now
You say global warming, they say wrath of God
by James Ridgeway
September 21st, 2005 5:41 PM
WASHINGTON, D.C.-Religious groups have pitched into help out with
relief efforts after Hurricane Katrina and are now preparing for
Hurricane Rita, a Category 5 storm on course to barrel into Texas this
weekend.
So where some point to global warming as a root cause of this
double-whammy of calamity, others see a divine plan at work. They
believe the hurricanes are God's punishment for various sins.
Katrina struck a few days before the annual gay "Southern
Decadence" celebration in New Orleans- festivities that Repent
America, a Philadelphia religious group, says fill "the French
Quarters section of the city with drunken homosexuals engaging in sex
acts in the public streets and bars."
Mardi Gras, with women exposing their breasts in exchange for trinkets,
and the presence of abortion clinics had made New Orleans one of the
"Murder Capitals of the World," a pit of sin, stated Repend America
director Michael Marcavage. "Although the loss of lives is deeply
saddening, this act of God destroyed a wicked city," Marcavage said.
"From 'Girls Gone Wild' to 'Southern Decadence,' New Orleans was a city
that had its doors wide open to the public celebration of sin. He
added, "From the devastation may a city full of righteousness
emerge."
Worldnetdaily.com, the conservative web site, reports from Jerusalem,
"While most religious authorities seem to agree one cannot discern
the intentions of God, there has been talk in some circles here and on
the Internet that the storm that turned parts of the Gulf Coast into a
disaster zone, prompting hundreds of thousands to evacuate their homes
and possibly causing upwards of 10,000 deaths, was thrust upon the U.S.
for its support of the Gaza evacuation. ''
"Katrina is a consequence of the destruction of [Gaza's] Gush Katif
[slate of Jewish communities] with America's urging and encouragement,"
Rabbi Avraham Shmuel Lewin, executive director of the Rabbinic Congress
for Peace, told WND. "The U.S. should have discouraged Israeli Prime
Minister Ariel Sharon from implementing the Gaza evacuation rather than
pushing for it and pressuring Israel into concessions."

Both religions are full of nuts peddling their empty claims. But at

Coastal city took Rita's best shot
While hurricane spared much of the Gulf Coast, Cameron, La., was
devastated.
CAMERON, La. -- A dead cow lay inside the sanctuary of a Baptist
church. Entire homes were pulled off their foundations. One resident
knelt in rubble and teared up behind sunglasses; his beloved dog was
missing.
While some parts of the Gulf Coast are moving closer to normalcy, this
city is a stark reminder that other areas still are in crisis.
Hurricane Rita seems to have packed a smaller punch than Hurricane
Katrina, the damage I've seen here is as bad or worse than anything I
witnessed in Mississippi after Katrina.

... The tornado was one of at least 14 twisters that touched down
Sunday in Mississippi, meteorologists said. More than 100 homes were
damaged, the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency said. At least
three tornadoes struck in Arkansas on Saturday. ...
In central Arkansas, a tornado with 155 mph winds stayed on the ground
for nearly 10 miles, damaging homes and a church. The church's steeple
was sheared off and blown across a highway, meteorologist John Robinson
said.
Tornadoes were among the deadliest elements of Hurricane Rita, which
made landfall Saturday on the Texas-Louisiana line. Two deaths have
been directly attributed to the storm: one person died Saturday in
north-central Mississippi when a tornado overturned a mobile home, and
an east Texas man was struck by a fallen tree.
Last storm there were satan's legions putting on christian masks and
sheeps clothing to spread malicious lies that storms are not acts of
PHYSICS but acts of divine retribution for not following the republican
agenda. I just thought I would post some of the blasted churches in the
news to show that Acts of PHYSICS cannot be prayed away, nor lied away.
The PHYSICS of Global Warming has run a hot poker up the butt of
faith-based denialism.

A storm assessment team from the National Weather Service in Little

Rita's rains overwhelmed the rooftop drainage system at Beth Shalom
Synagogue on Jefferson Highway, sending water cascading into the
sanctuary, but sparing the congregation's torahs and those rescued from
New Orleans two weeks ago.
"Well, it's our turn," Rabbi Stan Zamek said as he and members of the
congregation walked through inch-deep water Saturday morning.
Fallen ceiling tiles and dangling electrical wires littered the
community room in the 22-year-old building.
The library, which stored seven of the torahs from New Orleans and the
sanctuary ark housing the synagogue's five torahs, escaped damage. The
torah is the central, sacred object of Judaism. Each scroll,
hand-lettered in biblical Hebrew on parchment, contains the five Books
of Moses.
http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/news/stories.nsf/nation/story/725CD3...
Right along Highway 69 is Christian Fellowship and Worship Center. At
least it was there until Rita. The storm blew off the entire front wall
of the building.
"It also took out the back," said Don Doleman.
Doleman and his wife, Cyndi, were returning to their home in Beaumont
from their getaway to the north when they stopped as they often do to
take a look at their church.
"That's when we noticed the whole front was missing," said Doleman, a
service technician. Next door, a huge highway sign had crashed into the
roof of a nearby building.

ABOARD A NATIONAL GUARD BLACKHAWK ABOVE SOUTHEAST TEXAS (AP) _ Peering
intently from his helicopter window, Gov. Rick Perry points to the
evidence of Hurricane Rita's wrath _ flooded streets, a trailer home

with half its roof.

Across from the fire station, the First Pentecostal Church's white
steeple lay in the parking lot; a little ways down Main Street the top
half of the First United Methodist Church's stained glass window was
missing. The Vidor Church of Christ, which faces Interstate 10, might
have been damaged worst of all with half its roof torn off by Rita's
fury.

In Port Arthur, streets were covered by murky floodwaters. An
underpass of a railroad bridge showed the water to be 7 feet deep.
Trailers lay on their sides, roofs were yanked from churches and
utility poles were bent at 45-degree angles, testament to the ferocious
winds that gusted on shore.

Gladys, however, was impassable due to giant trees from the front yard
of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church falling across the road. The
eastbound side of Delaware Street was also blocked by other fallen
trees. Brick walls along the street were reduced to rubble.
The damage throughout downtown and the West End was mainly fallen
trees, but few, if any, structures were leveled.
Rita did, however damage the facades of many buildings.
The new Howell Furniture Store on Folsom Drive was missing its "H";
shingles were ripped off the roof of Calvary Baptist Church; siding was
torn from the sides of the Eagle Landing apartment complex.

VIDOR, Texas One of the east Texas towns hit hard by Hurricane Rita is
the town of Vidor (VY'-dur). It's typical of scenes left behind the

Houses have roofs that are damaged, churches have holes in their roofs,

also sustained roof damage.

Pope Benedict XVI sent a special envoy to Biloxi to check out the
devastation firsthand, Deaconson said. Archbishop Paul Cordes, the
Vatican's top humanitarian aid official, joined Biloxi Bishop Thomas
Rodi on a tour of storm-damaged neighborhoods and churches.
Deaconson himself witnessed the massive piles of storm debris en route
to St. Michael's church, where a statue of the archangel hoisting his
now broken sword is a mute testament to the fury of Katrina. Known as
"the fisherman's church," Deaconson said, it is a familiar landmark
there.

The skeleton of First Baptist Church of Long Beach sits a block north
of the beach, allowing a view of the Gulf through gaps that used to be
walls.
Senior Pastor LaRue Stephens doesn't know what to do, torn between
those who want to rebuild the church and a finance committee urging him
to eliminate the insurance liability eating up almost 10 percent of the
church's annual budget and to build north of the railroad tracks.
And with wind and hail insurers pointing to the tidal surge as the
cause of damage and flood insurers pointing to hurricane winds, he
fretted that the church might not collect on its $6 million policy.
"They're both sort of passing the buck, and it looks like we're going
to have to get an attorney to resolve this," he said, anticipating at
least $14 million to rebuild the church for hundreds of worshipers that
now gather outside an elementary school.

TAMPA - The smells hit you first; a repulsive brew of stagnant water,
spilled fuel, decaying fruit and rotting flesh.
Then you notice the sights, like something from an imagined apocalypse:
Thousands of drowned chickens lumped on the shore, barges and casino
boats washed inland, churches without walls or pews. Houses wobble on
the stiltlike remains of their first floors, left behind after water
carried off walls, windows and furniture. Even leaves seem to have been
plucked from the trees.
Tampa police Cpl. Mike Morrow brought these memories alive Friday,
describing his 10 days in Biloxi, Gulfport and Pass Christian, Miss.,
helping survivors of Hurricane Katrina.

The damage to the town was "phenomenal," he said. Entire buildings
were blown away and scattered across blocks. At the First Baptist
Church of Gulfport, the roof, steeple and support pillars remained, but
the walls were gone. Alyssa, 16, said she "did a lot of cooking" in
the tent kitchen, but also had time to visit with victims of the storm.
Many needed a shoulder to cry on, she said.
