Billy Graham’s daughter: ‘9/11 was God’s punishment for trans people, evolution, and secularism’

http://deadstate.org/billy-grahams-daughter-911-was-gods-punishment-for-trans-people-evolution-and-secularism/

Anne Graham Lotz, the daughter of famed evangelist Billy Graham, appeared on right wing pundit Steve Deace’s radio show this week to remind listeners that God has forsaken the U.S. because of transgenders, the teaching of evolution.

Lotz said she hopes that “some of this craziness would settle down” in the U.S., which, according to her, “seems to be shaking its fist in God’s face and telling him to get out of our politics, get out of our schools, get out of our businesses, get out of our marketplace, get off the streets…”...

According to Lotz, the only way there will be “peace on the streets” is if people repent and accept Jesus as their savior. Only then can God “reveal the plots of our enemies and terrorists before they are carried out” and “control the weather patterns and protect us from these violent storms that are taking human life.”

She added that “God allows bad things to happen” like the September 11 attacks and the San Bernardino shootings “to show us that we need Him, you know, we’re desperate without him.”

Some people who profess Christianity should read dialog attributed to Jesus, instead judging others, while engaging in bazaar prophesy. Jesus said plenty on ways to treat an enemy and nothing matches her sanctimonious hate-mongering.

policy in the Middle East. But if she is saying God is a terrorist who uses human beings who are angry with US policy, that's a really passive aggressive God. (As a Christian, I find this kind of superstitious thinking to be the sign of an unstable and hateful idiot.)

"Nice world you have there, my children. It would be a shame if something were to happen to it.

Say, some of my other children were to fly planes into the World Trade Center. Now, I don't want that, and I'm pretty sure you don't want that, so maybe we can come to some kind of agreement?"
