Because a number of "religious leaders" suggested back in 2005 that Hurricane Katrina was God expressing His wrath, the question arises now, What are religious Republicans (which is pretty much all of them apparently) thinking God might be saying now?
Is God mad at the Republicans?
Has Mitt or Paul forgotten to pray?
Is Isaac (appropriately sporting the name of the only biblical patriarch who did not leave Canaan) God's punishment for the Mormons' believing that all those ancient stories took place in North America?
Is God telling the Republican faithful to stay home on November 6 to ensure that Romney & Ryan can't unseat Obama & Biden and won't be able to name another conservative to the Supreme Court or dismantle Obamacare or do anything else to make life in America even more dog-eat-dog (i.e., unChristian) than it already is?
Maybe. But less faint-hearted, less soul-searching Republicans are wondering whether God is just saying that they can't depend on His help on November 6, so they'd better hustle to make sure their fellow Republicans get out to the polls that day and redouble their efforts to prevent non-Republican types of voters from being permitted to vote?
Much wind blows on which theological question prevails.
