Would somebody care to explain to me what's wrong with my comment? I'll admit it's short. Is there something more fundamentally wrong? Feeding trolls?
Frankly, a belief that natural disasters only strike highly religious areas is quite strange, and I see no evidence for it. As Goladus pointed out, San Francisco gets earthquakes; that was also the first thing I thought of. But is there any part of the planet that doesn't suffer from natural disasters? I don't think anybody could make the original assertion without realizing these problems, and my explanation shouldn't be needed. If I could, I would have downmodded it.
heh, here in michigan we get um, snow, the occasional freezing rain. But we're pretty much eventless (somehow attributable to the water around us i think)
