More hurricane stupidity...

As in those that are blithering idiots trying to say that "It's da homer-sexers' fault!"

Did Gay Sex Cause Hurricane Harvey or Was it Climate Change? Some On the Right Blame LGBT Americans (No Seriously)

LGBTQ Americans have caused the country billions of dollars in structural damage, killed dozens of people, and displaced thousands more from their homes, according to the evangelical figures who believe gay people caused Hurricane Harvey.
Despite overwhelming evidence that adverse weather and climate change had a hand to play in the storm that has devastated parts of Texas, numerous voices emerged that suggested the biblical proportions of the flood were, well, literally biblical.

Among those crying “science be damned” and waving their pitchforks in the general direction of the LGBT community over the past week were minister Kevin Swanson, who believes the Bible preaches death to gays, and the similarly delightful radio host Rick Wiles, who thinks Ebola would be a handy way to wipe out the LGBT community.

when we had a wise president named Obama in office, that their End Times baloney only started up when they sent a racist, sexist, narcissistic orange maniac to the White House.

look really silly. Now they might get away with it if the epicenter of the Big One in San Francisco was under one of the more notorious gay pleasure domes, but Houston? And not even Houston, the suburbs and exurbs of Houston, especially to the south and west where all the Leave it to Beaver families live.

And they keep on doing it, any natural disaster is proof of god's wrath against somebody else they have never met who lives a thousand or so miles away.

Makes you wonder why this Bronze Age rubbish still sells so well.
