How Does This Happen?

Post by Joe Guy »

I guess it got pretty windy in Florida yesterday. It looks like when they built the tilting house they forgot to glue it to the ground....

If it's Florida, they used Trump or DeSanitas bullshit instead of glue
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

seriously, the house was on stilts, it must be beachfront.

you can see that the house to the right of it is also on stilts

designed to let flood tides or storm surge to pass under the living space without certain destruction

the garage doors and siding on the bottoms are designed to wash away

the stilts are inherently unstable and they either broke or the house was lifted off of them

either the design was weak, likely, or the construction was poor, also likely

or maintenaince and or inspections were lax, also likely

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.
