Sometimes God isn't subtle

Here is more on the sudden, small tornado which developed over downtown Minneapolis yesterday afternoon, knocked the cross from the steeple of Central Lutheran Church (the Holy of Holies for Minnesota's ELCA) precisely at the time when, next door, discussion was scheduled to begin on the social statement which declared anal intercourse between men the moral equivalent of conjugal relations between husband and wife, did minor damage to the arena in which the Churchwide Assembly itself was being held- and then, simply dissipated.

One delegate actually expressed the hope that the weather was not a commentary on what the church was in the process of doing. It was supposed to be a joke. It is not recorded whether anyone laughed.

Sometimes, it seems, God isn't particularly subtle.

ADDENDUM: According to Dr. Robert Benne, the statement passed with exactly 66.6% of the vote.
