Yesterday on the slog I started a countdown to the first announcement from some right-wing religious fanatic group placing blame for Hurricane Katrina on some supposed failing of liberal morality. And today, predictably, the group Columbia Christians for Life delivers, informing Salon.com that if one looks at an image on an unborn fetus, and then looks at a satellite image of Hurricane Katrina as it bore down on the Gulf Coast, there are apparently similarities.

Salon quotes from the group’s email:

“The image of the hurricane … with its eye already ashore at 12:32 p.m. Monday, August 29, looks like a fetus (unborn human baby) facing to the left (west) in the womb, in the early weeks of gestation (approx. 6 weeks),” the e-mail message says. “Even the orange color of the image is reminiscent of a commonly used pro-life picture of early prenatal development.”

And in case you’re not getting the point, the e-mail message spells it out in black and white: “Louisiana has 10 child-murder-by-abortion centers,” the groups says, and “five are in New Orleans.”

All I can say is: Jesus Fucking Christ.
