How many want to bet the Evangelicals blame the flu on gay people and liberals?

Or Obama or atheists ...

Of course. Just like they blamed them for the AIDS virus. The AIDS virus is a gay man’s disease according to the ignorant.

HIV (the AIDS virus) is a little bit different to blaming natural disasters on 'the gays.' The reality is that (other than sharing drug needles) the virus transmits most readily through unprotected anal sex. Males who have anal sex with other males are in a unique position of being able to put themselves at high risk of infection as a receptive partner, and then (once infected) put others at high risk as an insertive partner. This is why HIV will always have a higher incidence amongst males who have sex with other males than it does in the general population.

This doesn't make it "God's curse upon homosexuals." If it did, then surely God would find an equally potent method of smiting lesbians (who are typically at lower risk of contracting HIV than heterosexuals.)

I do love how they consistently suggest causation with absolutely no evidence.

More of God's punishment of liberal America for allowing gay marriage and abortion, no doubt!

God wills it! Oops, wrong century. Let me update that... God hates fags. There we go, much more modern. -_-

It's Obama's fault !

..this is the shit that keeps me coming back 😀

@Stevil absolutely !

If thou toleratist the fag, surely thou shalt succumb to the flu. If thou art a fag, surely thou shalt succumb to the flu. If thou toleratist not the fag, thou shalt probably succumb to the flu. If thou art straight of rod, thou shalt likewise suffer my wrath. Thus sayeth the Dude on High.

@MrLizard -- Hearken to my words for verily I say unto thee that even the slightest crookedness of thine rod increaseth tenfold the chances of contracting the flu. I'm sorry. Maranatha.

@MrLizard -- Perhaps the Big Guy in the Sky hasn't gotten to you yet. Go get your flu shot, or get a rod splint.

Why not ? Everything else is their fault .

Rofl, I would not take that bet.

Well, after AIDS, it seems pretty obvious.

Some evangelical asshole will try to do it.

I find it absolutely hysterical that the bible belt continues to be bombarded with floods and tornados while such "dens of sin" as San Francisco, Palm Springs and Las Vegas enjoy clear, sunny weather almost year round.

Perhaps the big guy upstairs is trying to tell these self proclaimed "christians" something about their behavior. I have a feeling that if there is a god out there somewhere, and if there will indeed one day be a day of reckoning, a lot of these assholes are in for a very unpleasant surprise.

I am sure some of them have figured an angle . Or perhaps a divine punishment, right, plague of toads old testament stuff.

Nah. It’s retribbution for not wiping out Islam.

Some will for sure.

They probably have a plan to "prove" it from one of their fairy tales

Lol yep!

I've seen it. They say HIV was given to gays as a form of punishment.

Maybe some do, but it is wrong to paint any group with broad strokes. WE fight against painting all Muslims as radical, so why think Evangelicals would all think the same?

0

Of course they will. It's god's will.

It wouldn’t surprise me at all!

They need someone to blame. It couldn't be their imaginary friend in the sky sending the flu because they have been bad.

when its really the fault of tv evangelists and the GOP.

Don't be paranoid

Haha, it wouldn't surprise me.

Many...but the worst part is that millions of people will agree with them.
