>A dispute has arisen in Italy following a comment made on Radio Maria by Father Giovanni Cavalcoli, a respected and accomplished Dominican theologian, who said the devastating earthquakes that have struck central Italy this year are God’s punishment for the country legalizing homosexual unions in July.
>The Dominican, however, did not issue a mea culpa, insisting: "I reaffirm everything: earthquakes are provoked by the sins of men, such as civil unions”, and urged a reading of the Catechism. He added: "I've been a doctor of theology for thirty years, I worked in the Vatican with Saint John Paul II and I repeat that sins like homosexuality deserve divine retribution which can be manifested in earthquakes."
>Recalling also Sodom and Gomorrah, Father Cavalcoli stressed that such statements that “homosexuality is against nature” and that homosexuals are sinners “do not go against the principles of Christian ethics.”
Remind me to never make fun of burgers for retarded theological arguments ever again.

Next time we make fun of America I hope we remember this shit.

I remember that some idiots in Italy sued seismologists for not forecasting an earthquake a few years back.
That's not something current science could do.

They weren't sued for not predicting an earthquake, they were sued for saying that there was no risk whatsoever, convincing people to go back to their houses and causing a lot more people to die

There's always some degree of risk. Science works with probabilities.

That's why the sensible answer to "are we safe to go back to our houses after the few shakes we've had in the last days?" is "no"
