Jeb's Puerile God

Marvin had wondered what kind of religious portent we might find in Hurricane Charley. Via Mark Kleiman we learn that Jeb Bush has an answer:

"This is God's way of telling us that he's almighty and we're mortal."

Kleiman is not impressed with Jeb's theology. I must agree that I'm also not impressed with Jeb's conception of an arbitrary, capricious, petty, and truculent God.
