Flights resume in Europe but travel chaos not over<\/a><\/p>\n

Many European flights took to the skies Tuesday for the first time in days but the travel chaos was far from over: London’s airports were still closed, a massive flight backlog was growing and scientists feared that history could repeat itself with yet another volcanic eruption in Iceland.<\/p>\n

Airports in London, including Heathrow, the busiest in Europe, won’t reopen until Wednesday at the earliest and forecasters said more delays were possible if the volcanic ash cloud stayed over much of the country.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In the spirit of those who think God directly sent an earthquake to kill tens of thousands of people in Haiti, I have a list of reasons that God is punishing Europe with an Icelandic volcano that is filling the sky with ash. Or maybe blessing Europe with it.<\/p>\n

10)\u00a0 God really hates techno-trash Euro-dance music.<\/p>\n

9)\u00a0 God is getting really tired of all this nonsense about global warming…\u00a0 as if puny humans have any serious impact on the weather, let alone the climate.\u00a0 Who IS God around here, after all?\u00a0 Hint:\u00a0 not the fossil fuel industry.<\/p>\n

8)\u00a0 God hates French food.<\/p>\n

7)\u00a0 God hates English food.<\/p>\n

6)\u00a0 God hates movies with subtitles.<\/p>\n

5)\u00a0 God is hoping Europeans will take refuge in empty cathedrals, and possibly rediscover Him.<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0 God has secretly always wanted to fly an airplane, and is now practicing, zipping around in the ash clouds where no one can see Him.\u00a0 He has always liked hiding Himself in clouds.\u00a0 (This one was for the Process Theologians<\/a>.)\u00a0 After all, God gets bored sometimes, too.<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0 God was really just trying to keep Al Gore out of the air (in his private jet).<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0 God, not being a global-warming denier, was just trying to help, by putting some ash in the sky to reflect some of the Sun’s energy back out into space, and cool things down a little.\u00a0 But humans, being human, merely complain at His Divine Providence.<\/p>\n

1)\u00a0 God REALLY hates French food.<\/p>\n
