Pastor’s abortion dream inflames bushfire tragedy<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\nThe Catch the Fire Ministries has tried to blame the bushfires disaster on laws decriminalising abortion in Victoria.<\/p>\n
The evangelical church’s leader, Pastor Danny Nalliah, claimed he had a dream about raging fires on October 21 last year and that he woke with “a flash from the Spirit of God: that His conditional protection has been removed from the nation of Australia, in particular Victoria, for approving the slaughter of innocent children in the womb”.<\/p>\n
Pastor Nalliah said he was helping to co-ordinate fire relief, including providing trucks to distribute clothes and food and giving his own blood, but he said he must tell “the truth”.<\/p>\n
Asked by the Herald if he did not believe most Australians would regard his remarks as being in appallingly bad taste, he said today: “I must tell people what they need to hear, not what they want to hear.”<\/p>\n
He said it was no use “molly-coddling” Australians.<\/p>\n
Asked if he believed in a God who would take vengeance by killing so many people indiscriminately – even those who opposed abortion, Mr Nalliah referred to 2 Chronicles 7:14 to vouch for his assertion that God could withdraw his protection from a nation.<\/p>\n
“The Bible is very clear,” he said. “If you walk out of God’s protection and turn your back on Him, you are an open target for the devil to destroy.”<\/p>\n
[…]<\/p>\n
He quoted a headline describing the fires as “The Darkest hour for Victoria”. “A few months ago the news media should have reported `the darkest hour for the unborn’, but unfortunately the `Decriminalisation of Abortion bill’ went through parliament and was passed, thus making many people call Victoria `the baby killing state of Australia,’ ” Mr Nalliah said.<\/p>\n
Pastor Nalliah said there may be criticism. But he said he did not send out his media statement thoughtlessly. “We spend two days working on it.”<\/p>\n
He had previously said drought and the world financial crisis could be partly blamed on human sin.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
You’d think this idiot would wait until the victims’ bodies stopped smouldering before blaming them for their misfortune.<\/p>\n
How stupid<\/strong><\/em> would you have to be to buy in to this offensive dolt’s superstitious nonsense?<\/p>\nIf in Nalliah’s world of black magic and superstition, women being able to legally control their own reproduction causes massive bushfires, what sin could I commit that would cause JUST Nalliah to burst into flames? Chewing gum in an elevator on Sunday, perhaps? Taking the goddamn Lord’s name in vain? A little making of the beast with two backs without intent to procreate?<\/p>\n
Right here and now, I’m offering to swap my boarding pass to heaven for a sin that turns Nalliah into a pile of stinking ashes. Just tell me how I must transgress…<\/p>\n
