Told you

[W.W.J.D]

An Austrian bishop has described a German music festival stampede where 21 people died as a sinful event and suggested the deaths may have been God's punishment for losing faith.

Salzburg's Roman Catholic bishop, Andreas Laun, described the Love Parade and participation in it as "a rebellion against creation and against God's order, (which) are sins and an invitation to sin".

As well as the deaths, more than 500 people were injured when a lethal bottleneck formed as revellers tried to get in to the festival in the German city of Duisburg on July 24.

Good to see you're sticking around though WWJD (What Would Jedward Do?). I for one enjoy your fractured take on modern life.

I think the real question that needs to be asked in this topic IS What would Jedward do?

So what WOULD Jedward do?

GOD'S WORD® Translation (©1995)

God's anger is revealed from heaven against every ungodly and immoral thing people do as they try to suppress the truth by their immoral living.

WWJD, Please don't come on this site suggesting that God caused the death of those poor people. From a Christian perspective, God might be angered by the sin, however the price of sin is death, and has already been paid.

Your posts do nothing to evangelise people, and everything to put them off the Christian faith.

So I suppose the REAL question is,

Is god real or not?

[Gnomicide]

Or are Jedward real or not?

These are not the thoughts of a mad "God botherer", it is a Bishop saying these things, Bishops know a lot about this sort of thing. I am merely passing on his wisdom. My late husband attended Glastonbury many times and I know in the early years he took drugs and succumbed to the flesh (before we met). He last attended Glastonbury in 2007, he was taken one week after his return. He was only 59. Whilst you may not think you live a decadent lifestyle and music isn't bad per se, I myself am fond of Lena Martell and Foster and Allen, a lot of trouble does follow it around.

It's too late for my husband to repent, it's not too late for you.

I refuse to believe that you are anything less than a troll.

hardly good christian music now is it!!

[incident]

Wow.

If that's gods response to the sins of a fairly inconsequential festival, I hate to think of the carnage that's going to happen when he takes out his wrath on the Catholic Church and all its followers.

People like the OP are the reason why I won't have anything to do with the church.

This is obvious trolling, however:

Jesus had no problem with drinking, celebration, music or healing herbs. What would jesus do? He'd go to glastonbury, you'd find him in the healing fields

[W.W.J.D]

Is there actually any good christian music? Everyone knows the devil has the best tunes.
