This is probably politically incorrect and there has certainly been no mention of this in the news. But DH pointed out that isn't it a coincidence that the falling crane that killed about a hundred in the giant mosque in Mecca...a strong wind blew it over....just happened to occur on 9/11.

It's not politically incorrect, it's just plain bad form and says a lot about you and your dh. That's just a really fucked up thing to think, let alone say.

Also, you need to get a better grasp on karma. You clearly don't have a decent understanding of that concept either.

I've been surpised by many things I've read here...but this is right up there at the top. "there has certainly been no mention of this in the news" - There's a reason for that.

I don't think it was karma, either, because they were innocent people at their place of worship. They had nothing to do with 9/11.

What a despicable thing to say.  107 Innocent people have been killed in this dreadful accident.

(The vast majority of the Muslim faithful are not associated, nor agree with terrorism.)
((Karma doesn't work the way you guys-OP-are figuring it to work. It mostly applies to how one's own actions are directly responsible for the the way the universe responds to them-as individuals. If I am a wrong doer, then a wrong doing is going to come to me. Not to an entire people for the actions of a few. This is, of course, simplified. I should also point out here that *wishing* for a retributive karmic action to occur to someone for a real or perceived wrong is, in and of itself, bad karma.))

That you think 100 or so innocent people praying who were killed in a freak accident somehow deserved it as punishment for a totally unrelated tragedy that occurred 14 years ago says far more about you and your spouse than it does about karma.
Even entertaining that thought is just awful. Why is the trend lately to say horribly offensive things and expect to be applauded because you are rising above being "PC"? You're not more evolved, you're spewing hate.
My judgey pants are firmly in place.

Wow. We have a friend/coworker who travels to Mecca every couple of years at great sacrifice to himself and family all in the name of being a faithful follower of his religion. He even has brought us beautiful gifts from there. I assure you that he isn't anyone that "deserves" death because of 9-11. Not every Muslim is a religious fanatic just like every Christian is not Kim Davis.

tip-toeing out of this thread now..... You did NOT say anything offensive one way or the other. It's ok to read this thread. It is a tragedy and it is sad. Just know they died the most holy way possible. It's like dying during mass. You are in the house of God. God calls those home on his timetable.

I have no words. I have typed 3 or 4 responses, but nothing comes close to expressing the disappointment and disgust I feel towards your post. I really hope you don't consider yourself a Christian.
FTR...I predict that this thread will get one of those folders that's on fire...

What a hateful thing to think. Do you really believe they deserved to die? That it is karma? How do you or your dh know what kind of people they are? Putting all people of one religion (or country, race, etc.) together makes you a bigot, imo.

I'd like to say I am shocked or horrified that people think these things... but sadly, I am not and here is the proof.
I think you're about to learn what Karma really is, by putting this out there for everyone to read and know how you and your husband see things. Good luck with that.

Leone has a history of posting a bigoted comment and fucking off without response. This look par for course only I see has mustered up enough cajones to create her own thread this time.

Putting all people of one religion (or country, race, etc.) together makes you a bigot, imo. Yes, my mom's eye doctor is a Muslim. My medical office person I turn to is Muslim. Lots of my good friends are Muslim. My Granny's doctor was a Muslim 50 years ago!!! We aren't all evil and horrible. Most of us have regular jobs, live normal lives and are happy, kind, gentle people. We have problems but the 99% of us are normal happy people. 1% are terrorists. They are the ones who make the news, though.

Let's not dignify this post by making it a folder on fire. I agree with every poster above and I think everyone else does too. Shame on you.
