Is that not just an easy cop out? The message that he conveys is 'it is not ok to lead a life style that is not endorsed by the church', and the recent flooding is a result of such life styles. And people that lead a life style that is should be comforted by the fact that it's not directly aimed at them? Frankly, it sounds like a full frontal assault.

Incidentally, I'm still interested to hear if you think the Bishop is out of touch. I suspect you don't.
