Quote: r3x29yz4a said: 1. I was merely pointing out the satirical irony of natural disasters devestating the states that claim god on their side.
Satire only works if it is grounded in reality and/or based on the actual facts.
As such, for your point to be satire, you would need to demonstrate that god is only smiting the red states with natural disasters. However, he isn't, as evidenced by the wildfires currently plaguing "blue" California.
Therefore, your satire fails.
but this thread came after I read a Fallwell quote blaming 9/11 on feminists. He said it was God's wrath. Ironically, I was going to link to the Wikipedia section with the quote, but the page has been edited: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_fallwell
