Are calamities - deaths and destruction caused by men's action?

It is more fun criticizing


                                                Bad weather spoiled BBM sorties at Leyte


                                            Death and destruction at Baybay due to Agaton



A netizen made a comment on the sufferings - death and destruction at Baybay brought about by Agaton typhoon.  .  She cruelly commented that this was due to the citizens of the said place joining the activity of BBM.   It is a punishment for supporting criminals"

When there was Ondoy, an acquaintance quickly quipped that Ondoy was punishment of God due to sins 
of people from Luzon

How can we say that.  We can not fathom the wisdom of the Creator regarding events on this earth.  The time of judgement has not come.

They are acts of nature,and has nothing to do with election, events on this earth.   To think that way is illogical, reflects absence of critical thinking.   What caused their death is lack planning, further research by NDRRMC on risk areas for people to settle and put up their houses.  And DPWH  in putting up more effective anti erosion, anti landslide infrastructure.
