Is anyone else SICK of seeing god get praise when a tragedy happens and someone doesn't die? To me the entity above created the tornado in the first place.

God has SOME racket going...cause death and destruction then get a pat on the back because someone who prayed got saved.

To me its insulting and plain rude to all those who died....

IGNORANCE

Whats God? haha

Seriously..to think "god" listened to you and let another die is just disrespectful in my opinion to those who perished.

How about football players who credit God when they score a key touchdown (or, in the case of the one player for Buffalo last season, actually blame God after a bad play)?

Calm down. Whether you like it or not faith is a comfort to many people in a tough time.

Just shrug it off.

It reminds me of something like a plane with 200 passengers. Say out of the 200, there are 50 children. The plane crashes and only one child survives. God is thanked because that one child survived, despite the fact 199 others died.
