the problem

The problem with believing that everything happens for a reason comes when you begin thinking that you know the reason everything happens.

I just listened to this evangelical christian woman from Texas talk on national television about how the blackbirds are falling from the sky in Bebe, Arkansas because Don't Ask Don't Tell was repealed.

Apparently, because Bill Clinton is from Arkansas, and the current governor of Arkansas supported repeal, God is punishing the blackbirds.

Idiot.

So let me be clear:  just because I don't believe in coincidence does not mean that for a second I profess to have any idea what the actual connections between events are.

I do not.
