Malibu's Rich - no match for Fire!

[-Cp]

I can't help but think of Christ's words from the book of Matthew:

19"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

22"The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light. 23But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

24"No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.

Gee, I guess GOD is sure showing them, those rich heartless bastards..... are you saying that Jesus is a socialist?

I'm confused, it sure seems like the biggest televised Bible quoters like James Dobson, Billy Graham or Houston's own asshole, Joel Osteen....... are nothing, but, about money....... did they misread their Bibles or was there a problem in their version? That is my biggest problem with the Bible, it can be interpreted to mean whatever you want it to mean. I find it hard to believe that GOD is responsible for such a poorly written book. A GOD that could create an animal as perfect as a fox could certainly write a book that wouldn't need "Bible Lawyers" to interpret it for us. A great miracle would be that no matter what language you speak, when you would read the Bible, you would see it in your language and you could easily understand what it was saying. That's why I don't believe it is the work of GOD and in fact is an insult to GOD.

It's alright if you want to keep quoting it......... some need it as a crutch to know how to act, others just know.

Uh-oh all those rich folks laying about on South Pacific islands better watch out, might be another tsunami along anytime as soon as God is done with burning Malibu. Better get a warning out to Nice and Cannes as well, fires up in the forests in the hinterland might come down to the beach. Same for Mykonos. And Paris.

Damn I'm glad I'm not rich. But hang on, poor people here get killed in bushfires and lose their hovels too. What about them? Does God have it in for the poor as well?

Jeez ya can't win! Rich or poor He's gonna get ya!
