Say WHAT!??!

OBviously the deity was offended. Mightily. 

After all, he/she/it went to the trouble of arranging the 
earthquakes as punishment for things he/she/it knew you 
were going to say...   

It would be interesting devising the experiment to determine 
whether the temblor was started by a deity that is offended 
more by what believers say, or by what non-believers say.

Or, he/she/it was bowling, and wasn't even aware of any 
upstairs neighbors.   Yeah. That's it. Bowling. Big balls.

That's what you get for putting Alaska over a bowling alley. 

7.9?  Ouch.
