Favorite Smiting Method?
Anyone who has read the Old Testament knows that when G-d gets pissed, the results are pretty cool to watch. However, which one is your favorite.
Note: To shorten the poll, I eliminated all of the Ten Plagues.
This wasn't a God smite, but some chick stabbed a tent pole through some dude's temple.
My fav God smite, was when he sent the bears to kill the kids that made fun of the Prophet Elijah
I don't think it can get any more smite-y than nuking Sodom and Gomorrah with a rain of fireballs, or more creative than turning Lot's wife into a pillar of salt.

The Staypuft Marshmallow Man.
Wait, wrong God...
He did destroy an entire city before and he flooded the entire earth. I would have increased the wolfie population to starve the evil peoples into submission via eliminating the meat source, but destroying entire cities and sending the wicked to hell works too.

No wonder why Stephen Colbert is afraid of them. Or maybe it has to do with Harvey Birdman...

that made me giggle
I agree that Sodom and Gomorrah tops the list. Did I mention He then shifted the Dead Sea on top of the blasted, burned out ruins?
Not to mention the Ten Plagues pretty much wiped out Egypt's economy. The hail and locusts finished off their crops.
I think among the many virtues G-d possesses, thoroughness is one of them.
For pure comedy, nothing beats the plague He unleashed upon Abimelech (a king who kidnapped Sarah). Depending on which commentary you believe, G-d either unleashed impotency or constipation on Abimelech, who promptly returned Sarah, unharmed, to Abraham.

I thought they were lions...
Well, Sodom & Gomorrah was pretty good, and I especially like the pillar of salt thing. It's so out of the ordinary, and so symbolic.

That's my favorite too.
Kid: Oi, Baldy! You're old! Hahahahaha!
Elijah: May God smite thee from Heaven!
Kid: Pssh, yeah, whatever.
Bear: ROOOOOOOAAAR!
Kid: HOLY SH--*chomp*

What, maybe send his witnesses around to bother me? I hope he takes into account the fact that they don't last too long around me.
Pits of Hell, plague, famine, war? Theres nothing that god, or the devil for that matter,could do that I would be afraid of. Humans are far worse than either one of them..

What if we're both wrong, and you end up sitting in one room, listening to nothing but Celine Dion, for eternity?

Squatches: you have just proven my point, that Humans can be far worse than any god, or demon when it comes to evil. Pat yourself on the back.
well if we're talking impressive smiting. It would have to be this (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/ca/KT_Impact2.jpg)
GO KT!
Talk about cleaning the slate and starting again!
I think killing all the first born sons in Egypt. Something about God and killing children just goes together in my mind.
