Kenyan dies in her sleep after cursing God

NAIROBI, Kenya - A starving Kenyan woman placed a powerful tribal curse on God, accusing him of sending famine, and died in her sleep, local newspapers said on Thursday.

The woman from eastern KenyaÂ’s drought-ravaged Kangundo district decided to invoke a dreaded oath from the Kamba community, famed for its potent witchcraft, media reports said.

“Whoever brought this famine, let him perish,” the woman chanted, striking a cooking pot with a stick.

The Pat Robertson effect once again.

#5  Spooky, kind of reminds me of that 'First Born' threat given to Moses from Pharoah; that bit him in the butt !

#4  Meanwhile, OBL continues to run free after murdering several thousand Americans. In other news, Saddam Hussein, the murderous ex-dictator, continues to make a mockery of the court proceedings in Iraq.

Good thing they never cursed God--then they'd really be sorry!
