E - Prayer and Hurricanes

As we all know, the hurricanes have been beating the shit out of the US recently, especially in the south. I am 100% sure that people throughout the country have been praying to their gods for these hurricanes to go away or pray that homes aren't destroyed. The result of their prayers - a terrible hurricane that hovered over Florida for days. So people prayed again, but then another hurricane came. So people prayed again, and another hurricane came.

Why don't people use common sense when it comes to God?

I am 100% sure that the ministers have made up some philosophy as to why God didn't do shit for help - it's what they always do. If they couldn't explain away God's silence in these matters, then they wouldn't have the job. On the other hand, if God did help people, then why would they need ministers? The acts of God would be ministry enough.

The word of God is this, "I do some really fucked up shit to mankind, and I allow every evil thing to happen to them." But then the ministers and prophets come along to contradict the word of God and say to you, "God is full of loving compassion. He may not come when you want him, but he'll be there right on time. You are kings and queens, and no weapon formed against you shall prosper." Now, honestly, doesn't it make more sense to believe the simple word of God? It is most reasonable and quite easy to understand - even for children. Actions are everything in this universe, and God's actions are quite obvious, are they not?

If God were to give a message to mankind through those terrible hurricanes, it would be this, "No one ever asks, 'Where is God?' They prefer to pray to quiet idols and make up philosophies rather than pay attention to the obvious truth. So I give them ministers and prophets, and I give them violence and hurricanes."
