Mudslides

On the subject of building ones home in a mudslide prone area and other dubious choices:

According to news reports, one man said of his friend, who had been tragically swept away by the California mudslides: "Roy's life has been in service to his good, loving and ever-forgiving God,".

In other words, by his own definition, his beloved friend (after a lifetime of service to others in the name of his god) was killed by "an act of God".

For the moment let's set aside the fact that the grieving gentleman was apparently nonplussed by the incongruity of these circumstances. Arguably his grief had muddied his thinking.

On the other hand, I feel it is reasonable to infer his unnecessarily/prematurely/horrifyingly deceased friend spent his final moments rueing his choice of an invisible champion in the sky.
