For religious people, this is the undeniable prove that God is not around, or if exists, is evil.

For the rest of us, it's tectonic plates moving.

My condolences to all the people suffering in Haiti.

If you're pathetically simple-minded and arrogant, sure.

Like what's-his-face... the crazy evangelical that was talking about how the Haitians made a deal with the devil back in the 19th century to escape the French (and thus, are being punished). Not Falwell, the other jackass.

I'd say he just sounds more like a crackhead.

haiti is notorious for voodoo. i doubt god is overly keen on voodoo.

i seen a pic of a man bawling his eyes out whilst holding his baby daughters body. you could almost feel his pain.

I find it impossible to imagine the grief of people who have lost all their familly, it puts our petty whinging into perspective

Pat Robertson.

Who seems to overlook all of the Christians living there and missions work carried out regularly.

When I hear jackass comments like that, it reminds me of the passage in scripture in the book of James that talks about how anyone who wants to be a "teacher" (of Christianity) must be extra careful in their actions and statements since they will be judged doubly by the Lord on the day of judgment.

Like that piece of shit Falwell saying that 9/11 was God's judgment against the USA. I can't tell you the rage that fueled inside me. So God was judging me? God was exerting his wrath against me, just because I was faithfully going to work? God executed my friends that day as judgment against the actions of other people?

What an ass-kicking from God.

Didn't they have a civil war as well recently?

Tough break for all the Haitians, having so many shitty stuff in such a short space fo time. Feel really bad for the UN deaths though as they were there to actually help people out.

God is around, it is that if you want Him to show His face in everything thing be thankful that HE isn't a God of telling you where you can work, how to act, ordering you to worship Him, who you can marry, what kind of car to drive, where to live, what to eat ... should I go on? God allows things to happen based on what's in our hearts/minds. Personally He wouldn't be a God, He would be a total dictator whereas you would not have the freedoms you have to do what you want to do.

My condolences to all the people suffering in Haiti.

My condolences as well, and a hearty support to all people who are going there to help.

I heard what he said, and as a Christian I am ashamed of him as someone who says he is a Christian!

50.000 deaths. What a terrible and unbelievable disaster !!!.

I wouldnt maybe go that far, but I without a doubt this isnt the time or the place for that.

I realise I wasn't very clear, but I don't mean those suffering may think God doesn't exist. My post was directed at Falkomagno.

My comment is a deeply ontological reflexion about the existence of God. His response, in the other hand is a childish flame. I don’t see how you rather the former.

I don't "rather" either. I only posted that its not the time or place to discuss such things....

But I agree, in the sense that this is not the right place to discuss such a things.

did you read ALL of his post?

Why is there no talk about how Brangelina have given more money to the relief than the CHINA?? USA, who everyone hates, sends troops supplies and $100 million. Europe does nothing as usual. Why don't you send your universal healthcare down there?

Sorry I guess I should have said, Europe does very little compared to the US.

Actually, there is a surprisingly low maximum amount of money the EU can send over or donate at a time or at least that's how it was reported in the media here in Belgium

I wouldn't be too surprised if in the end Europe will spend just as much or more for relief as the US - give these things time. Yes I realise time is of the essence in instances like this - but you shouldn't be so quick to judge just because you're biased for some reason

EDIT: also, this is right at the doorstep of the US - Europe is on another continent so the fact that the US was able to react quicker with the navy already in the area is only natural

Wow now the Haitian Prime Minister is saying probably more than 100,000 dead. That's about 1% of their entire population. That is horrible.

Also I was watching the news about the relief effort. The U.N. have areas set up to distribute food in a, more or less, orderly manner, then they showed an American helicopter swoop over a large crowded refuge camp and just start tossing out boxes of MREs into the crowd of hungry people. Needless to say pandemonium ensued, way to start a riot guys.

So how does the earthquake fit into God's plan?
