THINKING LIKE THE RELIGIOUS RIGHT

First the disclaimer: I do not believe the thought and behaviors of a large group causes God (whoever or whatever that may be)to cause innocents to suffer.

If I were thinking like some Evangelical Pastors who, in the past, have blamed those who deviate from their beliefs for all the major disasters in our society, I would have to ask the question, if that thinking is accurate, how do they justify the weather forces that are keeping the Republican convention a bit off kilter since they are not able to have the President and Vice President in attendance? How do they account for the deaths and distress to Evangelicals as well as the rest of us, the sinners who believe in equality and that all mankind is created equal in the eyes of God. It is just one of those puzzles in my mind......is there anyone who can explain how this works?

Hocus Pocus, you lost your focus.

Faith means believing things that are not true. There can be contradictory or circular logic, because it's magical! ^.^

Faith INCLUDES believing things that aren't true. You are kinder about the logic than I might have been. ; )
