Explain THIS one to Me James Dobson?

Semi-Retired Blogging Great Hesiod (he still posts at the American Street) had this little nugget of information in the comments at Atrios.

WOMAN, 38, DIES CRUSHED BY CRUCIFIX DURING MASS
(AGI) - Oristano, Italy, Aug 10 - A woman died crushed by an iron crucifix at the entrance of the church of San Lorenzo while she was attending mass in the city's patron saint's celebrations. Paoletta Orru', 38, had returned to Mogorella, near Oristano, with her husband and two children especially for the celebration of San Lorenzo. Tomorrow was her birthday. This morning the woman was outside of the busy church, together with other devotees who did not manage to enter. Suddenly, around 12, the heavy crucifix about one metre wide fell from the entrance of the church where it was placed, crushing the woman. The emergency services immediately dispatched a helicopter, but when they arrived from the nearby Ales they warned that it was not necessary any more: the victim, hit on the head, died due to a strong concussion. Fire-fighters and police arrived and will inspect the scene. The accident is currently unexplained. A youth, who was grazed by the crucifix, suffered a slight injury to his ankle and will heal in 4-5 days. (AGI) .


For all those who always talk about "God's Miracles this" and "God's Miracles that", what is this?

God's Negligence?

God hates you?

Seems to me if there WAS a "Christian" God, he'd have dropped a crucifix on either Osama or Bush -- or possibly both.
