I thought that was pretty funny... mind you, there might have been a celestial voice saying "bugger it! Missed!" because He was aiming for me ;-)

Ok, so maybe it WAS a sign from the supernatural. But, as with all signs, what did it mean? The preacher was unhurt, but $20,000 damage to the church? Could mean anything ???

To me this says one of two things, First of all, the Goddess doesn't like to be pissed off.
Second, the Goddess has a sense of humor. ;) ;) ;) ;D ;D ;D

Perhaps God was just telling him to shut up...
From Richard De Haan:
"A man attended a meeting where the guest lecturer was extrememly long-winded. When the listener could stand it no longer, he got up and slipped out the side door. In the corridor he met a friend who asked, "Has he finished yet?"
"Yes," the man replied, "he's been through for a long time, but he's not aware of it! He simply won't stop!"

Which is why he got hit in the microphone, and why the church caught fire. When God speaks, you better listen. ;)
