Rita(Crosby?) is now a Category 3 Hurricane that may indeed strike New Orleans....again.

Damn...

Speaking of Rita Crosby... That lady I cannot stand.

Which is larger Rita Crosby or Rita the hurricane?? Last I saw it was heading toward Texas, where it could hit the places where the New Orleans people evacuated.

Rita Crosby always sounds like shes going to be out of breath....like shes an obese person or something.

God hates New Orleans and George Bush hates midgets and albinos. All this hate is ruining the world.

I vote for this topic as the worst title ever posted.

God (with a captial G) doesn't hate places or people.

If you want to use a hate reference, use Mother Nature.

Florida was hit with 4 major hurricanes last year. We are in an intense, active hurricane period (10 years). The ocean waters are very warm and that is the trigger for hurricane formation.

God doesn't hate? Go read the Old Testament sometime....early on, God is a real angry entity.

Anyway, at least it got you interested enough to click to read my post.

I take it that Ronnie was joking around with this title. Let's all get a big, fat sense of humor.

P.S. God hates people who can't take a joke.

It has nothing to do with a sense of humor.

People who believe in God may not find funny certain references to God, even if they are meant in jest.

The teachings of all of the mono-theistic religions are that God loves everyone, and while I undestand and respect the fact that you are a non-believer, as am I, don't be surprised when some people find a "joke" about God hating places or things not to be humorous.

Make all the jokes you want to about God, that's your privilege, but consider respecting the way people feel about "God Jokes" instead of making jokes about them not getting the joke in the first place.

I think any intelligent person can take a joke. Hell, in Family Guy, God is a skilled sniper who invented Shrinky Dinks and enjoys using miracles to pick up women.

It's one thing to call a religious person an idiot or whatever, jokes are another thing.

Family Guy is a horrible show with low-brow humor and a total disrespect for religion.

It's one thing to joke. Another is to offend. Family Guy specializes in the latter

Plaw, I don't want to speak for Ronnie here, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say he implied the joke as a simple jest. As did I with my little P.S.

It's all a joke people, we need to laugh about it. There is a terrible situation down there and we've had nothing but grief for weeks. Humor is really needed right now. You believe in God, fine, but a joke is a joke. They use serious situations and try to build some much needed levity in these situations. God loves people, ok, that's great, but when he hates things, now THAT'S humor! It takes a common situation, "God loving things" and turns it around.

Let's not make a big deal out of this. (Even though I know Plaw or JJ or someone will tell me why I'm wrong and how laughing or not taking into consideration EVERY single person's emotions is a sin of some degree or a social "no-no" in some way.)

Family Guy is one of the best shows ever. Not only because it is funny, but because is broke barriers in the same tradition as All in the Family did. Laughing about religion became ok. That's a huge stepping stone.

The Doc [/b][/quote]Totally agree, Ferro.

Thank god we have Carlos Mencia, who doesn't care who he offends. He offends everybody, including himself. If you're offened by Family Guy, you have no sense of humor.

Your mom doesn't have a sense of humor.

Anyway, I like watching other comedy shows. I am a big fan of BBC comedies and I'm glad PBS carries them for the American network system.
The Marx Brothers (Who were Jewish-Americans) are my favorite comedians. Their uncle, Karl, invented Marxism

Actually, she does. But thanks for the insight.

I love these little charades. Specially Hitchock's movie.

Anyways, God doesn't hate New Orleans. He dedinitely hated Sodom and Gommorah. And the pre-flood world. But not New Orleans.

God only loves. He doesn't hate.

Who is Rita Crosby?

She used to be on Fox News, but "defected" to MSNBc or CNN, I forget.

Her trademark is her really, really annoying voice which makes her sound like, as someone has already said, like she is constantly out of breath.

Which God hates New Orleans?

Um ... I'm guessing Shiva :-)

Actually someone wrote a Biography of God, and it shows how over the years he matured from a real pain in the ass to a very forgiving person.
