    This week Hillary and Obama visited here in WV, Hillary on Wednesday and Obama on Thursday. On Wednesday night we had a tornado--rare, almost unheard of in these parts. What do you think was on the local front page news? Hillary and Obama, of course. Frankly, I don't care if I ever hear of either of them again.

    Someone on another forum mentioned this to me, and I can't help but believe it. What goes on in the physical world is a reflection of what's going on in the spiritual world. Go ahead, tell me I'm being nuts, but I think their visit and the weather just might be connected somehow.

    You can throw rocks at me now, but I had to get that off my chest. Back to your regular scheduled talk of politics.:smilewinkgrin:

    Are you watching episodes of the old Gothic daytime soap opera, "Dark Shadows", like my wife and I are? :)

    It was all the HOT air in Charleston that travelled up Elk River that caused the tornado....

    I am with you sis, I think both candidates are evil as Satan.
    They stand for the same things Satan does.

    Hillary and Obama going to WV is as infrequent as tornadoes, though. Think about it.

    Our primaries are in May.... I forecast we will have more violent storms caused by updrafts of a lot of HOT air... here in WV.

    And it doesn't have to be just from the Democrats... lol

    Oh for heavens sake. Yes, God sent a storm to WV to punish you for letting politicians you don't like, campaign. Some people should not be allowed to walk outside without an escort! :rolleyes: If I hadn't seen this post with my own eyes, I would not have believed it. It has to be the all time most ridiculous OP in BB history, and that is saying a lot.

    I am telling you, it was not a storm... it was the bunch of baloney filled with HOT air the candidates were spewing out!!!

    Come on now! Two tornadoes a year, and they both came on the same day!

    Actually, maybe God sent the storm so more people would be focused on the weather and unable to attend the politician's speeches. Look at how the snow has hindered their travel schedule in other states. Hmm. Is it just coincidence? Maybe, maybe not.

    Come on guys; we know that the physical world is tied to the spiritual world.

    What happened in the spiritual world because of Adam eating the apple that Eve gave to him?

    What happened to the weather when Christ died on the cross?

    What about the sun standing still because of a battle?

    The moon will turn blood red because of things happening in the physical world.

    Do the angels rejoice (spiritual) when a soul gets saved (physical)?

    Just wondering...

    Well I guess when Obama came to Texas and the weather was beautiful, it means that God approves of him and his campaign. If fact, it would seem that if you don't support Obama, since good weather followed him here, it would mean that you aren't supporting who God supports.

    So Democratic Americans visiting a state is equal to Christ dying? :rolleyes:

    ==Tornados can occur anywhere at anytime if the conditions are right. Tornado "season" is simply a period where the conditions are more conducive to the forming of storms that could produce tornados. However a tornado can occur at anytime throughout the year. Tornados can also form almost anywhere. While some areas get hit by tornados more than others, no location is totally safe from tornados.

    ==Certainly it is true that nothing happens apart from God causing it or allowing it. However we cannot know "why" God caused or allowed these storms. Trying to guess is a waste of time. I honestly doubt, however, that it had anything to do with the visit of those two candidates. After all they have been to many different cities and communities throughout this nation and nothing happened.

    Maybe the tornados happened because we live in a fallen world where things like that occur. Ever thought about that?

    There you go, trying to put words in my mouth...

    I was just giving illustrations of the spiritual and physical world having an effect on each other.
