Early this morning, while most in the United States were going to bed, sleeping, and some on the East Coast were getting up in further preparations of the Hurricane, Irene in expecting the worst. My heart goes out to everyone out there and especially to the homeless by the way. Even my cat, Sophie is concerned in her daily thoughts between chasing mice, bugs, and other small game.
I am a huge fan of weather and always was. When I was less than 5 years old, I was in what would be considered now a days as a F-5 Tornado in McHenry, Illinois. Since then I have grown to understand and appreciate the weather. My wife, Laura J. Taylor calls me a “human weather-station” for good reason. As much as I love weather, the downside has always been loss of life and property. I certainly do not wish, gloat, or laugh, and made fun of those that are caught in the grips of a terrible storm – That just isn’t me.
So when I got on CNN News this morning around 2:30 a.m. I got to see and read about one of the biggest Ass-Clowns in media in these recent days; Glenn Beck professional asshole and idiot.
According to the headlines, “Glenn Beck: Hurricane Irene is a ‘blessing’” he is spouting off his idiot-mouth without any filtration through his frontal lobe once again which has become his trademark these days.
Now according to CNN news:
Beck has long urged his fans to stockpile food in their homes in anticipation of a global food disruption. He said Irene should be construed as a divine warning for those who have ignored that advice.
How many warnings do you think you’re going to get, and how many warnings do you deserve? This hurricane that is coming thorough the East Coast, for anyone who’s in the East Coast and has been listening to me say ‘Food storage!’ ‘Be prepared!’
… If you’ve waited, this hurricane is a blessing. It is a blessing. It is God reminding you — as was the earthquake last week — it’s God reminding you you’re not in control. Things can happen. Be prepared and be someone who can help others so when disaster strikes, God forbid, you’re not panicking.
The Washington Post reports that in encouraging home stockpiling, Beck, a convert to Mormonism, is echoing Mormon church teaching. The church encourages members to build home storehouses of food that could last for at least three months.
According to a website run by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the official name of the Mormon church which is nothing less than an American Christian Cult at best:
Our Heavenly Father created this beautiful earth, with all its abundance, for our benefit and use. His purpose is to provide for our needs as we walk in faith and obedience. He has lovingly commanded us to “prepare every needful thing”… so that, should adversity come, we can care for ourselves and our neighbors and support bishops as they care for others.
