God & Haiti

http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=7329512294177672518

This article talks about Pat Robertson's recent comment that Haiti was struck with an earthquake as a punishment from God for making a deal with the Devil.

P1: According to the New Testament, God is merciful and just.
P2: Killing thousands of innocent people to get back a a few sinners is neither merciful nor just.
C: Pat Robertson is a moron and the earthquake was nothing more than a tragic natural phenomenon.

Inductive, but strong and cogent.
