I think she is potentially one of the most convincing trolls out there. However, either way. Pretty much everyone should condemn the rubbish she is posting on youtube. She may have a right to say it, but I think everyone has a responsibility to condemn it. Apparently her account has been closed; so hopefully no more hate speech from her.

She sounds like a member of the Westboro Baptist Church.

I wouldn't go so far as to call her 'convincing' but she certainly is a troll. What utter disgusting nonsense

Nah, she's still too soft to be in that church.

I guess its just a Chinese in the armor of society that one schizophrenic somewhere can come off their meds, make a few videos, and everyone flocks around it who's wanted to believe that this is standard but hidden thought in those who hold the belief system that she claims to have. I'm sure there are videos of so-called liberals and leftists doing the Dr. Strangelove bit for Stalin or Mao. I wonder how many decades it'll be before its a more standard reaction for people to just roll their eyes, gag, and move on.

^^^

Agreed, however so long as people continue to take things out of context then I feel it is important to condemn this sort of stuff. Especially if you share some beliefs with the person. Guilt by association, while wrong does occur.

If it were 1942 and Japan was in the grip of the Emperor, Tojo and his gangster buddies, I might agree.

But two generations have come and gone. If this is Divine Retribution it is 70 years too late.

I disagree, no need to call attention to this kind of garbage.

There wasn't really anything there to condemn. She didn't make any points to refute, she was just praising her own baseless idea of God's plan. Best to ignore it unless someone throws it in your face.

If she is serious, then condemn her. If she is mocking, then the people she mocks are to be condemned as any mockery is based upon perceived similarity. Frankly, I am not offended by such commentary, and I enjoy jokes of any sort. I think people who need to "condemn" are the ones who should be condemned(or taken out back and shot) more than the mockers of the world.

I do not share her view that the earthquakes in Japan happened all due to one little prayer she prayed for atheists to open their eyes.

I do hold the view that there are a lot of earthquakes and disasters going on, which are possibly indicative of signs of the the end being near.

That said, I also take things on board with a certain degree of scepticism. Earthquakes and disasters and volcanoes and wars and rumours of wars have being going on for centuries. Unlike now, back then, we didn't always have a global media network to tell us about them. Every time we have an earthquake, some denomination or other will point to it and announce: "The End Is Near! The World Will Soon Be Coming To An End!" And, so far, it hasn't.

I always wonder why they spend so much time pointing at earthquakes, and less time checking the words of Jesus.

Apparently nobody, not even he, knows the day or the hour when he will be coming back. It's only up to God.

Whether or not this girl is for real, the amount of joking, trolling, and satire surrounding this tragedy is getting annoying and insane.

Did no one learn anything from Haiti? I remember that people couldn't express an opinion about why they wouldn't donate to Haiti without getting jumped on by the public. The mood was so intimidating and pressuring, it almost felt like a "Donate to Haiti or Die" situation. And some of those people were expressing thoughtful serious opinions. There wasn't half this much trolling and joking when Haiti happened except by religious nuts.

The lesson to take from this (and from the Gilbert Goddfried) situation, is that a tragedy is the stupidest time to be a comedian...especially on the internet when no one can tell when you're joking.

Shoot, I would be ready to subscribe to her videos if she hadn't wimped out.
