Wacky Bishops take over the Met Office.

Religious Leaders in the UK have determined that the recent flooding was gods judgement on a decaying moral society.

The bishops argue controversially that the flooding is a result of Western civilisation's decision to ignore biblical teaching.

The Rt Rev Graham Dow, Bishop of Carlisle, argued that the floods are not just a result of a lack of respect for the planet, but also a judgment on society's moral decadence.

"This is a strong and definite judgment because the world has been arrogant in going its own way," he said. "We are reaping the consequences of our moral degradation, as well as the environmental damage that we have caused."

The bishop, who is a leading evangelical, said that people should heed the stories of the Bible, which described the downfall of the Roman empire as a result of its immorality.

"We are in serious moral trouble because every type of lifestyle is now regarded as legitimate," he said.


So if you people in the UK want better weather, lift your game. Your behaviour will be judged before next summer.

Based upon the floods here in Australia, our moral fibre must also be pretty worn . Here in South Australia, we can get on our moral high horse and neigh loudly since we just got pleasantly moist.

By this logic, you can imagine Russia.

Yes I think this stretches credibility a little. You can just imaging going to church for spiritual guidance and weather advice.

Religious weather forecast. Based on current moral behaviour in Hull, Bridlington and Newcastle it will rain for 37 days.....
