Dow -777: A Sign from God (job, amount, number)

[SouthCali4LifeSD]

not to be superstitious, but dow -777 left me questioning if it was a sign from God too!

God is powerful, no doubt about that, but tweak the stock market? C'mon. He'd help out the world's poor and needy, but I don't see where stock holders, banks and overextended mortgage holders fall into that category. If He was going to do something spectacular with finances, I think it would be more to the benefit of those on the bottom, not the top.

The All Mighty does not have to do anything to smite the greedy and wicked fools here on Earth. There are enough idiots perfectly able to destroy the economy on their own.

the question is: if you're God you can decide to show yourself, or dont show at all, but what the hell would it mean to act as "maybe i'll show myself keeping the dow jones as -777"

please, either if you believe in God or not, dont treat him like a fool.

Whew, what a relief. I saw your post and thought you were going to blame in on evil Dodge and your old neon.

Ok, I just checked them - they say the market will be down about 76 points. Once again, they've proven their undeniable accuracy!

God was giving us a warning that day of whats to come. Its our material wealth that has made this country greedy and gluttonous, and the time has come for us to pay the piper. Repent now or much worse is to come!

I just wish that God would punish Hank Paulson and his cronies for what they are doing instead of me!

Please note that the market went through 666 on the way to 777. The market is not the playground of God it is the Devils playpen and brings out the worst in all of the players.

Thanks for making fellow Christians look like a pack of fools... this is absolute garbage. And where do you get this "adds up to 12" nonsense?
