Jesus statue struck by lightning – Religion - CNN.com Blogs

I'm very dissapointed that evangelist Pat Robertson declined to interpret the significance of the strike given his usual eagerness to blame other US natural diasasters on hedonistic lifestyles.

Well, I suppose it's past irony to note that they stuck some steel beams in a lake next to their building, covered in Styrofoam, and after it gets struck by lightning, causing a fire with damage to the tune of almost three quarters of a millionh...

They decide to do put another one exactly the same exactly where it was... Seems to me that whether the lightning strike was some kind of divine disapproval or happenstance of natural forces......

Well. Either way, it seems to take a certain kind of mindset to say, 'Order us up another one just like it!'
