Tornado 'wrath of God' headline

Stornoway tornado was 'wrath of God', says minister - The Daily Record:

Aye, aye... some people think the Record's headline is a bit of a pain.

:-) the headline's a bit of a liberty, as tabloid headlines always are. but not that much.

The actual story is just a report of what various people said. the FP minister, when his buttons were pushed by simple questions, just responded according to his beliefs - the gays were "in defiance of god" and the sunday sailings were " against the will ofgod".

What do you expect the paper to write?

It's just the joke we all made to each other when we heard about the tornado...

Anyway, here's what the Record quotes Rev James Tallach as saying - pretty modest on the brimstone, really:

"The Reverend James Tallach, of the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland, told the Record: 'I'm not in a position to say this was the will of God. I don't have that information here.

'But I am prepared to say that it's certain no good will come out of defying God's law.

'That is what a Civil Partnership does. What happened on Monday was in defiance of God.

'We have also seen a clear breach of the Fourth Commandment, which regards keeping the Sabbath holy. Sunday sailings were also against the law of God.'"
