WTF?
What deluded wingnuttery is this? God's grace "only" killed hundreds? How fucking evil is Rollins' God?

Couldn't collapse it at night while there was no on on it?
Or inspire an engineer even?

So, that's why governments don't bother with inspecting and maintaining infrastructure...the cross-tian's god is looking after it.

black death, bubonic plague, inflenza pandemics, ebola: yep, the big man certainly is looking out for us!!
But at first sight, not sure whether the site is a pile of poe or not; it feels fundie, but the tongue is firmly wedged where it shouldn't be!

So, we still have inimaginable plagues, viri, bacteriae and many other problems that we have mitigated in part, thanks to the human research, so what?. Are you saying that God is "selective" with them or what?. And about those bridges, they're built by humans so?. That John Piper selectively never read Jesus in Matt(those who were killed in the Temple are guilty of NOTHING)or the Book of Job. Moreover, he is absolutely stupid. Why one bridge yes, others no?. Why can't he accept that natural phenomena is..............natural?, that accidents happen?. Because if he wanted to do what you claim, he would be killing people every single day and preventing us to find the cure.

@apYrs:
Yeah, I can't tell if it's poe or not. I really hope so. But that's the point of Poe's Law, right? You know there's some wingnut out there who actually believes this pile of merde.
All I have to say is: gee, thanks a lot, God. No offense, but surely an omniscient, omnipotent deity could do a bit better than this?

So, in effect, the only evidence of god you are presenting is that plagues, viruses, disasters and catastrophes are not as bad as they could be?
What marvelous evidence of his existence it would be if those same plagues, viruses, disasters and catastrophes simply disappeared.
Hell, I'd settle for just one but I'm not about to hold my breath.

What's hundreds of people killed to Dave Rollins as long as he's not one of them?
Empathy and sympathy does not exist in Christian mythology since god does everything. It's god's sandbox, we're just droppings that sit there and are disposed of when he feels like it.

In other words, love God or God will kill hundreds more with collapsing bridges.
Rollins, God would like to see you out back.

Nice way to overlook bad maintaince and bad government, that did not protect people when the bridge was faulty.
I remember Putney Railway Bridge in London was damaged when a boat hit it. For years in was repaired and trains had to go slow,that is what is supposed to happen when a bridge is damaged, peopler are informed and it is fixed, even if it makes people later for work.
And I am share the people of the Twin Cities will be reassured to know all their bridges are in a state of negligent ill-repair.

With friends like John Piper's God who needs enemies?

So, in other words:
* Diseases and plagues = evidence of God.
* Lack of diseases and plagues = evidence of God.
* Bridges falling = evidence of God.
* Bridges not falling = evidence of God.
Somebody needs to explain to David Rollins exactly why this is a load of bovine fecal matter -- that is, if they can penetrate his Force Field of Ignorance.

Science is the good guy in the fight against epidemics.
Official negligence caused the bridge collapse. It may be luck with the other bridges, or perhaps they were designed better.

So how come when religious fervor was at it's hight in Europe in the 1300's a horrible disease called the Black Death killed 1/3 of the population and God didn't stop it?

Your god is either incompetent, impotent or a callous, uncaring bastard.

"...with hundreds killed and injured ..."
Actually, 13 died. But since when has a fundie ever let the truth get in the way of lying for Jebus?

God just emailed me to tell me that he hates your guts Mr. Rollins. He also wanted me to tell you that when he wants your opinion about engineering bridges He'll drop you a line but otherwise shut the hell up.

He has in his grace collapsed the bridge killing and injuring hundreds. Yep, sounds just like the god of Abraham...

Yeah, when was the last "act of God" that didn't kill, maim, or otherwise destroy?
Please?
Anyone?

So, whatever happens is an act of God. So, what's the point?

Thank you David, this is what we call an
Appeal to consequences. It's a logical fallacy, of course, but don't let that stop you.
By the way, you're not making a great case for your god.
