As Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) prayed Friday that America would heed God's warning that had been supposedly been delivered by a relatively minor earthquake, many other Americans prayed someone would tell her about science.
Greene issued a stern warning on social media Friday after a magnitude 4.8 earthquake rumbled east coast cities from Philadelphia to Boston and three days before a solar eclipse is slated to cross over the northern hemisphere.
"God is sending America strong signs to tell us to repent," Greene declared. "Earthquakes and eclipses and many more things to come. I pray that our country listens."

This is not the first time Greene (R-GA) has evoked God's name to express a political point. She once accused transgender people of "destroying God's creation" and last year claimed her savior flooded the music festival Burning Man.
Nor is this the first time Greene has offered a questionable take on natural events, having infamously blamed space lasers supposedly financed by the Rothschild family for California's wildfires.
This may be why Greene's comment Friday was not met with the reverence she might have anticipated.
"Girl you are insane," replied X user Jersey Craig.
X user @SundaeDivine replied with a pithy round-up of Greene gaffes that include mistaking Nazi secret police with cold Spanish soup and fruit-bearing arbors for cell-culture plates.
"It was the Jewish Space Lasers being controlled by the Gazpacho Police targeting the Peach Tree dishes on Capitol Hill," they replied.
Christopher Hale provided Greene with a friendly reminder of the complicated but precise astrophysical calculations that have rendered solar eclipses predictable for centuries%2C%20we%20can%20predict%20eclipses.).
"Bless your heart, Marjorie," Hale replied. "Eclipses have been predetermined since the dawn of creation. You are perhaps the dumbest person ever elected to the United States Congress."
Christopher Hyre had another interpretation of the message God meant to send Greene.
"Maybe God is telling you to do your job?" Hyre said. "Stop being a horrible person."
Keith Higgins had a historical question: "Did we just slide backward to the Dark Ages?"
