Many of these natural disasters occur because of mans being totally out of sync with the laws and physics of the planet. Cause and effect are more the reason as to why there are such powerful destructive forces that wreak havoc with our world, not because God doesn't give a shit.
There have been natural disasters since the beginning of recorded time, way before the invention of the destructive technologies you describe.- Destruction of Pompeii and Herculaneum by volcanic activity
- Destruction of the Minoan civilization by tsunami
- 1201 Egyption quake which killed over a million
- 1556 quake in Shansi China which killed over 800,000 people
- Ancient cities destroyed by quakes: Troy (numerous times), Ugarit Syria, Helike Greece, Bronze Age Crete just to name a few
- 1780 Great Hurricane in Caribbean killing 22,000
- 1815 90,000 Indonesians killed by volcanic activity
- 1883 volcano in Indonesia kills 36,000
- 1887 900,000 people killed in China due to flooding of the Yellow River
- 1931 over 3 million Chinese killed in flood of Yantze River, 1 million more killed in 1938
I'm not saying that humans have never caused a 'natural disaster' to take place, but if there is a God, you can't let him off the hook that easily. He'd be responsible for the seismic activity which causes most natural disasters (tsunamis, volcanic eruption, earthquake, etc.).
Now, you have to ask yourself, if this god is so 'perfect' and full of love and compassion, why did he create the world in a manner that causes his objects of love pain, suffering, and death?
I'd really like to hear the answer. If he did this by accident, then that would prove how imperfect he really is. If his creations are flawed, then he would be flawed as well.

My parents pressured the hell out of me to move out. They even invited a real estate agent over for dinner! She became my constant companion for the next couple months.
When I finally broke down a bought a house, they were constantly thinking of excuses to get me to stop by: "We're cooking out on the grill this weekend." "I have some things for you to pick up." "I need you to break in the pool for me."
If I'm not over there, they're over here every weekend. I'm like, "Did you want to get rid of me or not?"

Do a search for 'hookah' on eBay and you'll see a lot of cool ones at reasonable prices.

'Bong' is just slang for a water pipe. For some reason if you go into a smoke shop and call it a bong they'll ask you to leave...

This is the first time I've ever heard of someone actually using a bong to smoke tobacco. I know they sell tobacco in bong shops, but I thought it was just to throw off the fuzz.
Back in the day we made a 'hookah' out of one of those giant, plastic Coca Cola bottle banks. We bought four two foot lengths of tubing and stuck them in the sides, put one large tube through the top and down to the bottom where the water is kept, and put a large brass bowl on top of the tube for the 'tobacco'. We then sat around and sang that Coca Cola song.

Who can and can't a JW sit next to at the hall?
by JH in.
there are so many unwritten laws, but most witnesses know when it's wrong to sit next to someone.. name a few cases, when it's ok to sit next to someone, and when it's not ok?

My brother and I used to get in trouble if we sat in the back row of the Hall, but no one ever explained why.
What's the deal with the back row? It seemed to be the more rowdy bunch and all the females had infants.
