This kind of bad/hellish doctrine needs to be fought with good doctrine, biblical doctrine. I will read Dr. Pipers poem... thanks. (BTW Martin Luther was one the most sarcastic theologians in history. How can you expose the foolish teachings of these &quot;ministers&quot; without making the subject look a fool. Sarcasm used constructively can have an amiable quality.)Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13295554340713889995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5970683153008645393.post-75786819972408823462010-01-30T20:35:32.558-06:002010-01-30T20:35:32.558-06:00Tim, let me offer you a poem by John Piper which I think, for me, put awesome perspective on this tragedy: <a href="http://www.desiringgod.org/Blog/2187_a_poem_about_jesus_in_haiti/" rel="nofollow">A Poem About Jesus in Haiti</a><br /><br />Just because the earthquake did not strike us here in the United States does not mean that we do not deserve it. Perhaps that is what I have found the most offensive about Robertson&#39;s words. The presumption that Voodoo makes Haiti worthy of absolute destruction, yet America&#39;s hellish list of evils is somehow protected for one reason or another?<br /><br />You may just see something from me in the coming days, Tim. I have a lot to say, and I don&#39;t always like being sarcastic.Adam Parkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05826908205996140341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5970683153008645393.post-5170460679540543372010-01-30T19:44:44.058-06:002010-01-30T19:44:44.058-06:00Thanks Adam. I am a lifelong resident of Virginia and recently the tidewater area where Mr. Robertson calls home. I completely agree with you and enjoy lighthearted sarcasm however I would also enjoy hearing a positive, balanced reformed view of this tragedy.Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13295554340713889995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5970683153008645393.post-85579457063197037402010-01-16T10:08:56.411-06:002010-01-16T10:08:56.411-06:00Thank you for that post.
