POLITICS: Religious Idiotarians Weigh In: "I just knew some of the world’s religious idiotarians would not be able to resist using Hurricane Katrina to prove to everyone else once again what moral cretins they are. For starters there is Franklin Graham: ‘This happens when we take God out of our schools and God out of our society.’



Actually, this is what happens when storms form over large bodies of warm water in summer and smash into populated areas near that warm water. Hurricanes are older than Christianity. They are older than human beings.



Anyway, I'd like to ask Mr. Graham why he thinks Katrina struck the south, which is the most God-fearing part of our country? Why didn’t God send an earthquake to Portland, Oregon, which is known as the ‘least churched’ city in the United States?



My favorite, though, is from Muhammad Yousef Al-Mlaifi in Kuwait. He wrote an article called The Terrorist Katrina is One of the Soldiers of Allah, But Not an Adherent of Al-Qaeda. What a card that guy is.



‘As I watched the horrible sights of this wondrous storm, I was reminded of the Hadith of the Messenger of Allah [in the compilations] of Al-Bukhari and Abu Daoud. The Hadith says: 'The wind is of the wind of Allah, it comes from mercy or for the sake of torment. When you see it, do not curse it, [but rather] ask Allah for the good that is in it, and ask Allah for shelter from its evil.' Afterwards, I was [also] reminded of the words of the Prophet Muhammad: 'Do not curse the wind, as it is the fruit of Allah's planning. He who curses something that should not be cursed - the curse will come back to him.'



'When the satellite channels reported on the scope of the terrifying destruction in America [caused by] this wind, I was reminded of the words of [Prophet Muhammad]: 'The wind sends torment to one group of people, and sends mercy to others.' I do not think - and only Allah [really] knows - that this wind, which completely wiped out American cities in these days, is a wind of mercy and blessing. It is almost certain that this is a wind of torment and evil that Allah has sent to this American empire. Out of my absolute belief in the truth of the words of the Prophet Muhammad, this wind is the fruit of the planning [of Allah], as is stated in the text of the Hadith of the Prophet.



Hey, Muhammad. Remember when we liberated your country from Saddam Hussein’s atheistic totalitarian regime back in 1991? You're welcome.
