I am certainly not one to dare assume to know what goes on in the mind of the God I believe in, and consider it a bit arrogant to go down that path. Nevertheless, at the risk of being labeled an old fool, it is a challenge for me to believe that the series of “plagues” that have befallen the United States of America of late are not part of some heavenly master plan.
Our pastor said something similar a couple of months ago, noting there's no mention of America in the book of Revelation. The U.S. demands separation of church and state, and God is allowing it, despite the likelihood of bad results. Ironic that a Jew from Israel is pointing this out, however, as Israel too has chosen to be an explicitly secular state. I don't expect that to end well for either the U.S. or Israel.
