I told you guys this is punishment from the gods. Maybe some people will actually start listening. The oil companies' bad karma reckoning day is coming. This is only the start

It's everyone's karma. We're the ones who buy their products & elect the pols who watch over'm.
I did my part by getting a V10 truck instead of a V12.

Gawd. Another preacher.

Say what you will, but the gods are fed up with how humans treat this planet. It's not some wrath of god thing either, it's that humans have not taken care of this planet as we should. We have not kept the ways of Ma'at and fufilled our covenant with the gods. This is called karma. If the gods have to blow up every single oil rigg in the gulf to get us off oil, they will. Watch

This isn't punishment, its the fault of the people working at bp. I have worked on a lot of rigs (not offshore), but those people try to rush things and build these rigs as fast as they can. When they try to rush through these things, aloyt of safety steps are ignored. Unfortunatly this is a direct result of mans greed.

Well call it what you like, it won't stop what's coming. The gods have heard the prayers of people who cry out to them for help and deliverence from the world's current state. It won't stop the destruction of the oil corporations either way, and everyone can call it what they like. Gods or circumstance.

They're saying everyone on the platform is currently accounted for and that no product was being pumped, so everything should be ok at least. When I first saw it on cnn I got pretty worried.

Are you therefore suggesting, Senedjem, that the 'gods' or 'God' or a higher power will intervene in order to stop ecological disaster?

Why wouldn't they? Yes that's what I'm suggesting. I don't believe they're powerless. But I realize the skeptics will call it whatever they like. Let them. It doesn't make a difference.

The environmnental terrorists have struck again. I am now convinced that these offshore drilling bombings are caused by extreme environmentalists. For a second I thought maybe it was Islamic terrorists, but since nobody was actaully killed in this resent attack, since Islamic terrorists have no regard for the loss of human life. I am now certain it is the work of the extremist environmentalists, who are actually hypocritical as they truly don't give a damn how much harm they personally bring to the environment in their attacks as they are all communists whose only true goal is to bring down capitalist corporations and nations dispite any harm they personally bring to the Earthly environment. They are all so transperant it is almost a joke.

I hereby proclaim death to the environmentalist extremist movement. May they all for ever be reborn in the jaws of Sebek.

So, what's the difference?

Ooh, nice trolling. A little OTT though.

Well, as I work outside of the home close to 50 hours a week for a security company as a data entry tech, I would think so. You can go ahead and stick your head in the sand and delude yourself as to what is actually going on in the world. But mark my words, The Truth Will Out!

It's lunacy to accept an extraordinary claim without extraordinary evidence. So, instead of going with eco-terrorists (for which there is no evidence offered us), I'm guessing the cause of the explosion is something along the lines of sloppy safety precautions.
