In Terence Fretheim’s book, Creation Untamed: The Bible, God, and Natural Disasters, the author attempts to answer that exact question. He does this by examining Old Testament passages, drawing conclusions on the nature of God, and His intentions and actions through that.

Lee Clarke’s statement from his book outlines the following statement: “Disasters aren’t special. They are normal as love, joy, triumph, and misery.” (6) From this statement, I disagree with two things, disasters are normal, and they aren’t special.

False Americanization to Alienation Entirely adopting a country of your own in search of the better life seems risky, but embracing a movie’s depiction on a country in open arms solely through seeing it from a movie is idiotic. In Greg Sestero’s The Disaster Artist, the character Tommy has completely missed the mark in America because of his false stereotyping of Americans and the nation itself, leading to hate, conflict and agony for the casting crew.
