Because gays, duh.
god: makes people, makes some of them gay
god: “how dare they be gay!”
He’s not the sharpest tool in the shed, that god fellaNot just gay people, gay animals to.
Unless you ask as an evangelical - in which case it doesn’t even matter because the rapture is due any day now. That’s also why they’re both antisemitic and pro-Israel at the same time. They’re biblical literalists, and also crazy
If they were actual Biblical literalists, they would know that the world ended in 1844. That’s when the Torah, Bible, and Quran all pointed to, calling the guy three different things. There was a pair of guys that never met each other, who fulfilled those prophecies and everyone ignored them, or completely missed it, just like what was predicted. World ended, we have a completely different world now and we need to figure out how to not mess it up.
Not the first time one could argue that the world ended either. The Green Sahara period ended within a century or two of the Bronze Age Collapse. I’m not entirely certain that the one didn’t kick off the other. I am certain that is why the Torah was written, and why apocalyptic Jews, such as John The Baptist, existed in the first place. I’m also pretty certain that’s what caused some of the apocalyptic shit to trickle into the new testament and Quran, later.

God lol
I understand and agree with the sentiment, but I mean, aren’t wild fires supposed to be an expected natural disaster? They’re just getting worse due to more ideal conditions?
You can go across the whole range of natural disasters and find that generally true. Human abuse of our environment make the disaster more likely and likely to be worse, but there’s not a direct involvement nor could you identify a singular entity as the cause.
Unfortunately it’s still all an “act of god” with regard to identifying blame
The only real solution is taxing ahead of time to mitigate an entity’s share of directly caused harm. For example oil drillers are supposed to post a bond to cap the drill site and clean up the hazard. Of course there’s another question about whether that bond is sufficient, or they are able to dodge responsibility, and why the “pro-business” politicians in charge are so ready to wreck the environment for their constituents
Very Unusual natural disasters doesn’t have the same ring to it
