“In Saudi Arabia, prominent cleric Salman al-Audah said the storm, which killed more than 140 people, was a wake-up call for Americans to convert to Islam“
Our buddy Salman has only our best interests at heart.
How can you argue with a “holy” dude who knows that some omnipotent being used a storm to prod us heathens, us mere infidels, to adopt the particular religion our good buddy Salman revels within.
Salman’s statement can be found in the news story linked-to below:
Some Muslim clerics say Sandy is God’s punishment
A burning within my bosom that was fortunately not a heart attack compelled me to learn more about that nice cleric dude who cares so much about We, the People.
So Google received the cleric’s name and title: cleric Salman al-Audah
Our new buddy has a few search engine hits but he has competition with other clerics with similar names.
Another cleric has some thoughts about that “Sandy storm” that invaded the northeast part of the USA:
“In Egypt, radical cleric Wagdi Ghoneim described the hurricane as revenge from Allah for the “Innocence of Muslim” film made that sparked waves of violent protests across the Muslim world in September.
“Some people wonder about the hurricane in America and its causes,” Ghoneim wrote on Twitter. “In my opinion, this is revenge by the Lord [Allah] for [harming] his beloved Mustafa [another name for the Prophet Muhammad]…,” he added, alluding to the film.”
.
Well, that will teach us a lesson, won’t it!!!
The quote above comes from:

“Muslim Clerics: Sandy is Divine Punishment“
.
“Wagdi Ghoneim” Wasn’t that bloke one of the Hobbit crew who wandered to the east and ended up confronting Saruman and Sauron and a cast of bad folks such as orcs and a balrog?
So, I suppose to prevent future storms and other natural events that cause death and destruction, from tornadoes to earthquakes and meteor strikes or whatever, we may have to become Muslims.
Well, maybe not.
I am so confused.
There are a multitude of clerics and there is a HUGE horde of Muslim folks.
If anybody wants to become one of the huge horde of Muslim folks the Web makes it easy!!!
I do wonder, though… what if you do as that cleric wants and a severe storm strikes your area and most or all those around you remain infidels will your house be spared while others around you are harmed?
Personally, I will ignore that cleric along with every other, to me, idiotic brainwashed buffoon insisting that they know what to me is unknowable.
An agnostic I remain and I doubt of that will ever change.
But I AM the ever-helpful Disgruntled Old Coot and the Web allows me to help a folks if events are such that a multitude does descend upon this blog akin to a plague of locusts devouring all they come across.
Google does its search thing and led me to a site that will assist you in becoming a follower of that Islam thing;
“all forms of worship, whether it be praying, fasting, invoking, seeking refuge in, and offering an animal as sacrifice, must be directed to God and to God alone. Directing any form of worship to other than God (whether it be an angel, a messenger, Jesus, Muhammad, a saint, an idol, the sun, the moon, a tree) is seen as a contradiction to the fundamental message of Islam, and it is an unforgivable sin unless it is repented from before one dies.”
The Druid I know who was washed in the blood of a tree, a very nice guy who is law-abiding and only does good and a firm believer in “be nice” and to do unto others as you would have them do unto you will likely ignore the above so according to that Web site he is DOOMED!!!
Oh well, I doubt he will lose any sleep over the matter.
Below is the link to the site that will instruct you how to, perhaps, avoid the catastrophes that cleric declares are coming our way.

How to Convert to Islam and Become a Muslim

And the planet rotates and orbits the sun and the sun drags us along to revolve around the galactic core and the galaxy propels us as it speeds through the void or whatever it is and if the universe is expanding as many scientists believe we are moving along in that direction and maybe there is movement I don’t know about and winter is on the way and maybe the USA will be pummeled by one or more blizzards and… and… who knows.
And the Disgruntled One shakes his head and wonders about those so firmly convinced that they KNOW what I believe to be unknowable and I convey disgust at the many who attempt to gain economically by spewing that they know the TRUTH and want you to send them money to supposedly assist in brainwashing others and I would laugh aloud if a meteor landed atop those doing that but do not believe what they are spewing and doing so just to grab other folk’s money.
BAH!!!!!!
And thus ends another diatribe from the Disgruntled One.
