I want to know…

Where are the ever ready to eradicate evil, Evangelicals, or the Bible thumping blasphemous bashing Baptists, or the crusading Cardinals of the Catholic Church, or the mind someone else’s marriage Mormons when it comes to the rape of the ocean by BP? Where are the holier than thou crowd who speak in tongues saying they can interpret God’s plan for humans, while the birds, fish, dolphins, turtles and whales are inhaling gobs of goo and gunk gasping for breath, as the oil is spilling mercilessly in the Gulf?

Where is the Family values brigade while volumes of families in the Gulf go unemployed, become disillusioned, tread through the mire and mix of dead fish on the shores, dead income to pay the bills, dead desires drowning in front of their faces? Where is the hue and cry, ‘its for the children’ when the land and water the children know grow black with tar, grow poisoned by sludge, grow dead from too much self indulgence and gluttony of a society that seems to forget the children while they make profits?

Where is the quoting of scripture, so widely used to cast aspersions to Gays, Blacks, Hispanics, Muslims, by self proclaimed good Christians, in calling the abuse, the disrespect, the RAPE of God’s creation, the land and the sea a sin, sinful and shameful? Where is chapter and verse from the New and Old Testament so widely used and abused to prove some human point based on some vengeful misunderstood God’s plan for the Earth, while the Gulf is tossing and turning in torment? Where is the OUTRAGE by the collection of Christian soldiers ready to interfere in loves, lives, births, deaths, morals and ethics of everyone deemed a devils disciple, while the real devil is doing his best to make the ocean die?

I want to know why those who seem to think they have God’s tongue are silent while this crisis in the Gulf continues. I want to know why those who seem to think they can speak for God and translate his will, will not shout, scream and say ENOUGH of this decimation in the Gulf. I want to know why those who are certain God hates Gays, or Muslims, or Blacks, or Agnostics, or Democrats, or Immigrants or Poor, or Unemployed don’t protest, place their Bibles to the heavens, rant and rave against unchecked pollution, unchecked energy policies, unchecked rules and regulations for corporations and say this is not God’s plan!

I just want to know!
