Don't Worry...Christ Is Coming
Utterly amazing that the church members stayed in the pews after this hearing this nonsense. Or, more frighteningly, is this yet another telling ‘piece’ of the puzzle in why our current administration failed to respond to the Katrina aftermath as miserably as they did? It's not totally inconceivable that when a person (or a group of people) believes in approaching Apocalypses with too much fervor, there’s always a chance that they subconsciously help bring on such conditions in and by their actions or inactions to foreign and domestic events. Regardless, this is disturbing in many, many ways. (though I wish we had known days back that we were waiting on spiritual intervention in the rescue and relief efforts, for I wouldn't have raised nearly the ruckus I have)... Jage
Condoleezza Rice took a break today (Sunday) from her round of Broadway shows and a shoe-buying spree that would do Imelda Marcos proud. Why? To tell the hurricane victims dying hourly in their homes that their prolonged suffering is God's will, not the government's fault, and to lecture them on the virtue of patience:
Asked to say a few words from the pulpit, Rice, a preacher's daughter, said: "The Lord Jesus Christ is going to come on time." She added: "If we just wait."
Earlier at the same church service "Rice nodded in agreement as the Rev. Malone Smith Jr. advised the congregation, "Wait for the Lord." Rev. Smith and Secretary Rice were playing on the words of a beloved gospel hymn that says, "He may not be there when you want him but he's right on time."
