Christians: what if a lightning strike had burned down a massive new abortion clinic?

I notice the Christian response to the lightning strike on the giant Jesus statue burning it down in Ohio has been admirably rational, with an almost atheistic disregard for signs from God. Suddenly, the same people who think that if you hallucinate a burning bush, you must be God's prophet, and if you kill a fig tree, you must be the Son of God understand that a violent weather phenomenon spectacularly destroying something highly symbolic is, in fact, just a weather phenomenon.

But I have to suspect that this sudden about-face on the divinity of random events with symbolic targets might have to do with the nature of the symbol that was burned down. I mean, if instead of a several hundred thousand dollar statue of Jesus, it was an expensive new abortion clinic, or stem cell research site, or holy building of a different religion, or an atheistic politician, do you think there would be this Christian outpouring of rationality, or do you think a few people might consider it a 'sign?'
 
Then christians would have killed them selves with
"See god hates abortion"
 
It's true. We all remember Pat Robinson's compassionate response to the Haiti earthquake: Satan.

And Jerry Falwell's heartfelt response to 9-11: "I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the American Way -- all of them who have tried to secularize America -- I point the finger in their face and say "you helped this happen."
 
Lol...when you call it, you call it right! I've also noticed that Christians like to say that when bad things happen to Christians, it's a "test," but when they happen to non-Christians, it's God's divine punishment, lmao!
