Why not unleash a legion of angels on Iran, Egypt, Syria and North Korea and Russia? Or raining fire and brimstone wouldn't be bad either...those old time judgements really did the trick. They can't even find Sodom and Gomorrah.

Pffff... Russia ...
Get with the times dude, Russia has joined the 'free' capitalist nations, anti-communism is sooooo last century.
And, by the way, the last time someone tried to unleash a legion of 'angels' on Russia the result was that they (the Russians) waved their flag on top of the Reichstag four years (and several million dead) later.

Funny thing is .... the loosing side claimed to be the protector of western christian values on a holy crusade against the barbarian atheistic slavs .... much like a certain government nowadays, ....
I guess your God disagreed.
They can't even find Sodom and Gomorrah.
It's amazing how close these folks can get--but they always end up missing entirely. Come on, guys, follow that thought out to the logical conclusion. Accepting the facts won't kill you, promise.
To be fair though, the sight of 1000 guys in white dresses and halos, flying with big birdy wings, playing harps and hovering over your capital city would be fuckin awesome. Putin would shit himself! That'll teach em.
Not sure how much damage the harps would ultimately do though.
@ Toffee
No...the harps wouldn't do much. But those durty pinko commehs field artillery and anti-air batterys would make instant hilarity out of the heavenly host :P
Couldn't you just see it? Explosions of feathers like fireworks....mixed with a bit of flak.

BWAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHH-HAAAAAH!
Oh, and feel that fundie love.
The fact that God hasn't unleashed any such legion of angels should suggest at least a couple of possibilities to you.
Can you think of one?
Also, I think you should talk to the fundies who insist that Sodom and Gomorrah have been found.
They can't even find Sodom and Gomorrah.
That's because THE LORD nuked them both from orbit. It was the only way to be sure.
And that was when god got rid of sin forever! Once and for all! Halei--- Wait a minute...
@ Toffee - I think 1,000 harpists might make me give up - shit, the 100 strings of Montovani would do it for me. Like 5 hours of Donny Osmaond, or Phil Collins Muzak . . .
AAaaaaaarrrrgghhghgh
@Marsten:
The History Channel has claimed to find all of them?
Also, I haven't been able to find Hogwarts.
This is clear proof that not only does it exist, but its magical protection is keeping it invisible to me.
Why hasn't it happened?
Why hasn't "god" slaughtered anyone himself since the recorded events of the OT? Why does he need mere humans to do it for him now?
On an interesting note, archaeologists have found two towns they believe to have been the historical Soddom and Gamorrah. Strangely enough, if they have identified the sites correctly, they were destroyed in a war.
Yeah, why doesn't God do that? I've always thought burning bushes, flights of angels (or is it flocks? swarm?) and booming voices were far more convincing then random natural disasters in largely christian areas.
I'm now thinking that this guy must have just been watching Flash Gordon before posting his Death From Above masterplan. Now they were cool angels, I'd unleash them any day.
I can just picture Brian Blessed bellowing the charge order over the Kremlin while Jesus/Flash pilots the stolen bomber with the pointy bit on the front, crashing through the plate glass window and spearing Putin the Merciless through his cold cold Rusky heart.
Unfortunately, as people have alluded, Brian Blessed would be a bloody feathery mess before he got anywhere near Moscow. Shame.
Omfg. That made my DAY, it really did!
"Gee, if they can't find Sodom and Gomorrah, that must mean god destroyed them REALLY HARD!"
"I disagree with these countries! I'm not sure why, but the Government says I should, so like a good little subject I will obey! After all, thinking for myself hurts my brain! And since George Bush is such a good Christian, that must mean that the bad countries are against god! God should make them pay for refusing to conform!"
XD I mock you heartily, "Not Perfect, But Forgiven". I mock you with joy and abandon.
They can't find the witch's house, where she tried to cook Hansel and Gretl, either. Or the wardrobe that leads to Narnia, or the little town where there is a little house at the outskirts, where Pippi Longstocking lives. Strange, that...
So, what's stopping God from unleashing the legions of angels, or the rain of fire and brimstone? We haven't seen much of that in reccorded history, have we? If you don't count Pompeii and Herculaneum in 79 AD... That at least had a likness to fire and brimstone.
Well, that's a fairly good question. I have two or three fairly good answers.
1) God isn't mad at them at all. Which means that eastern orthodoxy (hey, they were original christians), islam (newest addition to original OT) or communist dictatorship are the way to go
2)God is either scared of all those iron chariots and metal birds those countries own. Or doesn't exist
3) ask your local preacher/pastor. He "personally" knows Yahweh and needs your money to get closer to him.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
