The Bastardised Phrase "it Was An Act Of God!" by Teetams: 9:16pm On Dec 10, 2007
It has become a tradition for us to use such terms as It was an act of God when disasters occur in Nigeria even when such disasters are clearly as a result of our carelessnes and irresponsibility.Can we address this issue?

care to give examples of those incidents that, in your view, qualify to be labelled as 'Acts of God' and those that don't?

Get more specific, your post is not clear enough in its present form.

When flying coffins crash we call it an "act of God". Someone should remind me, when did we start purchasing old aircraft from God airlines?

The poster didn't specify well enough but a good topic anyway.
We could have avoided a lot of disasters and accidents simply by doing what is right, God help us
