... Well, not many people *are* prepared when God's judgement finally comes. Remember: Japan has a long history of Christian persecution; they were even driven underground for four hundred years. I certainly hope the other nations of the world can learn from this example.

That doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Would you explain further thanks.

I'm not sure what you mean, Tank. What doesn't make sense?
It's not obvious which previous post your post refers to (if any) thus its context is indeterminate and meaning ambiguous.

Oh I was answering the OP, but viewed the thread title as the actual first sentence of the post (not the news quote), so that's what I was referring to.

So are you saying you see the Tsunami and earth quake were some form of divine retribution?

Just to clarify, are you seriously suggesting that the Fukushima disaster was an attack by a deity on the people of Japan, because historically they had persecuted Christians?

I must say I think that's what he's saying.

Probably best just to back away very slowly then.  ;)

In all fairness these judgements (tsunami, earthquake, nuclear crisis) aren't all that surprising, and terrible as it seems, actually very justified. I've lived here for a while now and Japan is a deeply pagan country. To make no mention even of the Christian persecution that historically plagued the nation before God saved them, there's idol worship, zen meditation, prostitution, homosexuality, gambling etc.

EDIT: Maybe that last one isn't so bad but I'm sure you get the point lol.  ::)

Given this, and other evidence, Mr Yagi-Atama (aka BobTheTroll) will no long be participating on the forum.
