The truth is that natural disasters have been happening a long time in human history, and before human history. The truth is that human beings have been killing each other in large numbers for a long time. If we are going to find answers to these problems, ways to mitigate natural disasters and to minimize humankind's more vicious tendencies, we have to give thought to real causes and potentially real solutions, not to distractions. Those who are throwing up these distractions at us are definitely part of the problem and not the solution.
I don't even know if its appropriate given all the crap we've heard lately, but sometimes a good way of calling attention to those who are adding to the problem is with humor. I hope you take what follows in that vein.
LITTLE KNOWN FACTS IN
GAY MARRIAGE HISTORY
In 1883, the volcanic island of Krakatoa erupted, producing
the loudest sound ever heard in the modern world. Over 36,000 people died as a
result of the explosion. The cause has since been revealed as Gay Marriage!
Around 450 or so AD, Attila the Hun repeatedly attacked
Europe, slaughtering thousands. It is said that Atilla constructed pyramids
from the skulls of his victims. Only recently has it come to light that it was,
in fact, Gay Marriage, that gave rise to Attila.
In about 72 AD, the Roman Coliseum was built. It was used
for the execution of Christians among other things. But do you know why the emperor Vespasian
began construction of the Coliseum? You guessed it: Gay Marriage!
65 Million years ago, an asteroid (or two) slammed into the
earth. The dinosaurs went extinct. The
fossil evidence is scanty but many suspect the impact was a result of Gay
Marriage among the T-Rexes of the age.
