Earthquakes are not caused by 200-year-old pacts made with the devil. For those who actually believe that such pacts cause natural catastrophes, I would kindly request that you keep your superstitions to yourself.
This is what causes earthquakes.
Please direct any funds or donations you might be giving to The 700 Club (this link mentions NOTHING about the earthquake in Haiti) or the Christian Broadcasting Network (this link, btw, has a pretty lame press release about comments made yesterday) over to Earthquake relief for Haiti.
Here's one place you can donate. (Scroll down on the page and click the "Donate Now" button.)
And don't forget to pray for the people of Haiti in their time of deep distress and turmoil, and for the relief workers for the difficult tasks that lie before them.
Also, join with me in waiting for Pat Robertson's apology. Again.

I offer these possibilities, hear the words of God to Satan...
The Lord said to Satan, "Whence have you come?" Satan answered the Lord, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it." Job 1:7
As with many tragedys, however, I think it horrid of Robertson to discuss the cause before helping those who suffer the pain, the deep despair such as poor Job who sat in pain, ashes and dust.
