Church collapses in Nepal, kills at least 23
Posted: 30 September 2009 1209 hrs

KATHMANDU: A church building has collapsed in eastern Nepal, killing at least 23 people and injuring dozens more, police said Wednesday.

Around 1,500 Christians had gathered in the makeshift three-storey building for a two-day convention when it collapsed, they said.

"The participants were preparing to sleep when the wall collapsed. Most of the victims were on the ground floor of the building," police inspector Mohan Bikram Dahal told AFP.

"The wall was made of bamboo and it could not withstand the weight of the people in the church."

The temporary structure was built next to a concrete church.

Police said rescue teams were at the scene and the injured had been taken to hospitals in the town of Dharan, around 200 miles (322 kilometres) east of Kathmandu.

The army has been drafted in to assist with the rescue effort, they added.

Many of those attending the annual convention of the El-Shaddai Church, an international Christian organisation, were from neighbouring India, and police said at least one of the dead was an Indian national.

The incident happened as majority-Hindu Nepal celebrates its biggest annual festival, Dashain, and came months after a bomb blast in a church in Kathmandu killed two people and injured 14 others.

Accidents are common in poverty-stricken Nepal, where safety standards are lax and frequently ignored.

Why don't your God just take all those 1500 people to heaven? Why take only 23? Your God practice favouritism or something? Fuck God you have there.
 
hey, u think their job is finished?

they still got to convert people like you mah!

it's not finished until Jesus 2nd coming okay...

by the way, since when a building collapse is natural disaster?

Fuck up logic you have there. Your God is a moron and you are an idiot. I pity your parents giving birth to an idiot like you.

Another screw up logic you have. Property price or any price go up and down due to supply and demand. Your God never teach you that?
 
When a building collapses, they try to find out why? Was it a bomb, gas pipe, engineer or architect error etc. When they can't find any explanation, they blame God. They call it an Act of God.

Earthquake zones on continents are on subterranean fault lines, e.g. California. Earthquake zones in Asia Pacific, e.g. Japan, Philippines, Indonesia etc. are because these are islands and archipalegos detached from continent and created from unstable volcanic lands in the first place.

Volcanic soil is very fertile. Just like Yellow River and Yangtze River in China always flood, but these are most populated. The soil is very fertile.
