Note the case of Pat Robinson, who believes (or claims) that the
earthquakes plagueing LA and San Francisco are due to sexual excessese on the
part of the locals; Of course, in the course of punishing this, God
accidentally kills many others, including priests and nuns. May I point out
that, even if real, a god who acted in this way would be little better than
Q's putting humankind on trial.
