Act of God

Post by Deep Sea Isopod » Mon Apr 19, 2010 6:43 pm

Insurance companies have a get out clause when it comes to natural disasters. An "Act of God". Now we all know this just means "natural disasters"
So if we say "prove god did it" they just quote what they really mean.

Let me tell you this.....
Last year, one of the drivers in the company I work for, was involved in an accident. Another lorry crashed into him, running him off the road. Luckily no one was hurt. This driver was carrying liquid Oxygen. So you can imagine how much shock he would be in.
Anyway, the other driver admitted fault, and witnesses also said it was the other drivers fault.
Our driver phoned the police, still in shock. (Because of the hazardous goods being carried and the possition of the stranded vehicle)
He said "I have just hit another truck"
Those words were wrong!!!
It ended up as both parties were to blame, purely because of what our driver said to the police over the phone.

Now, going back to "Act of God". If you call the insurance company and report a loss or damage due to natural causes, and they say back to you "it's an act of god" We should take their first words as the true meaning, just as what happened to the driver I mentioned, which then they must prove or pay up.

Am I right? :ask:

An 'act of God' absolves humanity of any responsibility for an event. Since your narrative of the crash doesn't absolve humanity of responsibilty for this event, then why have you focused upon it to discuss such acts?

Allah spreading ash all over europe.

i believe that this Iceland volcano was caused by Allah. there are so many people who are getting stuck all over the place. big airlines cant even fly at all.
its all power of Allah. there is nothing nobody can do about it. muslims can ground a plane or two, but their God has brought down entire system.
but this travel choas was not divine terrorism. no it was divine punishment. you see, when you piss Allah, He will get you so you cant fly, cant hide, cant run from him. you cant escape if you are on Allah's list. you got to pay for breaking His laws.

some muslims are saying that Allah was so angry coz of the cartoons, so He wanted to punish the infidel europeans for insulting his Prophet back in 2006.
in 2010 Allah got em back after they failed to repent. Allah has plenty of other volcanos and other stuff to show His wrath whenever you upset Him.
so please, just play nice and by the rules, and Allah wont punish you. stop making Allah angry.

This topic is about Acts of Allah, and i gave you once recent example of how He acts especially when atheists make him very angry.
i think this would be a good topic, a very scary one coz its real and its happening all the time. you are not trying to run away from your responsibility are you?

No, it's about insurance, and liability.

Bollocks to Allah. The Norse fire giants are pissed off with Holland and the UK for bullying poor little Iceland
