NOM speaker blames East Coast earthquake on gays

Within hours of an earthquake striking the eastern U.S. Tuesday, a rabbi that has spoken for the anti-gay group National Organization for Marriage (NOM) was already blaming homosexuals.
In a video posted to YouTube, Rabbi Yehuda Levin asserted that “one of the reasons God brings earthquakes to the world is because of the transgressions of homosexuality.”
“An email went out in my community just a few hours ago, ‘How long will it take Rabbi Levin to tie this earthquake in with homosexual marriage?’” he began. “Not very long at all. I’m happy to see that people — even if some of them are scoffers — are starting to see the connection.”
“Yes, there is a direct connection between earthquakes and homosexuality. There was in Haiti and it is here, in New York, in Washington, D.C., where they passed homosexual legislation ordinances, in New York City and state, where they opened, especially on Sunday early, where they passed the homosexual marriage law.”
Levin continued: “We want everyone to understand that if this kinds of activities continue and are legislated into the moral fiber of the country and are forced down the throats of the religious people, it’s a revolt against God. And literally, there’s hell to pay.

So if that is the case, why did God have the earthquake centered on one of the most viruently anti-gay Congressmen's district?
If he is punishing NY, why not have the earthquake ACTUALLY IN NY??

The NOM argument is totally bogus, everyone knows the earthquake was caused by the Founding Fathers of this country rolling over in their graves at what is going on in Washington!

Why do we pay any attention at all to a lunatic, or a group of lunatics, who has/have access to letterhead paper and a fax machine? Doesn't acknowledging them just encourage then?

Tell that to the Republican Party, who invites this group to speak at functions.

Morons are given airtime by both parties.
Pretty apparent this was caused by King Coal's surface mining in Virginia.

That's it! The guys who went to war over taxation without representation, and dumped tea in the Boston Harbor rather than pay tax on it are upset with the Tea Party. I knew you would use your logic to solve the dilemma.

My original thought was with every body up there, regardless of affiliation, but I should that would have never flown.

This is another sign that plate tectonics does in fact exist, even though Michelle Bachmann says the world is flat.

The sad reality is that both major political parties will get involved with any "lunatic group with a fax machine" if they think it will further advance their endless grab for more power. A pox on the both of them.
And I stand by my original comment.

Quit exaggerating.
Unless you have a source.
