Two videos showing a much better and more theologically sound response to the tragedy in Haiti.
The first is by Frank Logue a contributor at AskthePriest.org
And the second from our own Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church:
Episcopal Relief and Development (ERD) is one of the best things about our denomination. If you would like more information or to contribute go to their website - Episcopal Relief and Development

Because Ignorance requires an answer
Following the devastation of Haiti this week two outspoken idiots aired their intellectual deficiencies for the world to see. Rush Limbaugh decided that political game playing was more important than human suffering and Pat Robertson decided to twist not only theology but history in order to make sure that he could assign blame for the suffering of the nation.
So let me make one thing perfectly clear to the world.
Rush Limbaugh does not speak for me as an American.
Pat Robertson does not speak for me as a Christian.
In fact I don't believe that either speaks for most Americans or Christians of any stripe, style or persuasion.
The Haitian ambassador to the United States offered a wonderful retort to Robertson's astounding nonsense (you'll have to endure Pat's twaddle to get there):
