Nevermind that. What do Americans do on July 1st? This year both Canada and America get a long weekend out of our national days. The 1st is a Friday, and the 4th is a Monday. Hurray!

First I heard of them.

You didn't bother listening to anything the president said after 9/11? You only started paying attention to presidential statements since Obama took office? Why is that?

Anyway, now you have heard of them, do they make you sick?

Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Emotion, it's all about emotion. That's why he comes here, to unload his emotions.

Correct, you have been paying attention. It is what a responsible Christian does. That is express anger in a socially acceptable manner. Scripture says don't sin when you are angry but don't go to bed angry.

I used to drink beer when I got angry, whiskey if I was really pissed. Then I would often do something to make matters worse.

Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

Everyone has different reactions to tragedies like this. Haven't seen "laugh out loud" before. But to each their own.

******Completely agree.
I think that's why christians are so combative these days, they're losing and they know it.
We've had enough of their insanity.
I could swear we moved to this island for that very reason, but look where we are again.

I'm on your side in this argument but I have a feeling that "you" (the Puritans) moved to that island for less religious freedom and not more!

Ron, do you (or other so called christians) endorse what Roger Jimenez said in his preach in Sacramento ? link here http://www.abc10.com/news/local/sacramento/sacramento-baptist-pastor-praises-orlando-massacre/243211965

[normiss 622]

These days, I would share a pint in that.

[RonD1120 58]

None that I know or me would praise the massacre. Last Sunday one of our more mature ladies at church was in tears. All those souls including Mateen were condemned to hell for eternity. She keep saying we need to prostrate ourselves in prayer for the salvation of those in Islam and the gay lifestyle.

[piisfish 135]

That sounds Christian enough for me thank you.

Would you also pray for that preacher who is actually a hater ? Is he lost too ?

condemned to hell for eternity

I would suggest that a more Christian thing to do would simply be to pray for them, and not assume what God has decided.

That "we know because we're special" approach is as inaccurate as it is unbecoming. How one can presume to know the thoughts of an almighty, who operates on a plane and dimension that we cannot understand, is beyond me.

Any single group's interpretation of the Bible is as suspect as any other's. Because it's still done by people.

It would be foolhardy for me to present your opinion in my church. We will always fall back on the Word of God for salvation.

It would be foolhardy to say, "We should pray for those people, their eternal soul is in God's hands now."

You have to say that they are condemned to eternal hellfire, even though that's usurping the power of God. You should read your book again.

seriously, the absolute level of irony in this post made me snort so loud that people are asking me at work if I'm choking

c'mon - you HAVE to have been trying to help Wendy make her point. No one else could have done as effectively as this exact post. period. this had to be on purpose

The lady wants to pray for the Islamic in America and the gays in America still alive. I like the idea. Same as praying for the veterans who are potentially in the 22/day category.

Well, from what you have posted, it looks like you are VERY selective in terms of which words of God you fall back on.

[DanG 1]

You need to reread Wendy's comment if you think the part about praying for them was what she was commenting on.
