Re: [creative-radio] What if...

 

I'd really like to know which part of Creative-Radio's mandate ("use of radio in development, in particular promoting public health, improved education, protection of the environment, improved livelihoods, good governance and conflict mitigation") this particular brand of whacko theology addresses.

Not that I want to hurt anyone's religious sensibilities, but if the
Creator can truly warn us about disasters "via our dreams or visions",
maybe He could prevent the disasters altogether and save us the trouble of seeing visions and dreaming dreams.

with regards,
Sajan
