My response to the comments on the death of Charlie Kirk's assassination.
News Item: Akron school bans metal water bottles after they have been used to attack other students.
If you preach pro- metal bottle and someone hits you with one, what does that make you?
A hero? A victim? Wrong? Willing to put your money where your mouth is?
Water bottles don't hurt people, people do.
It brings up a question. If you are brought up Christian and you were taught to love thy enemies. Thy shall not kill. The meek shall inherit the earth.
Are you be willing to die for these beliefs? Do you teach your children that they should be willing to die for these beliefs?
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego went willingly into the burning fire.
Now, am I surprised about the comments from the left? Not as much as I am of those on the right. I've read comments from the right that literally said that people die everyday. That they will constantly wear their AK47 lapel pins.
This, like every other shooting, is horrifying. After the Democratic Minnesota state senators were shot the president stated that he was pro 2nd Amendment. That he ran on the 2nd Amendment.
Welcome to our world of callous responses after shooting after shooting after shooting. Welcome to the world of love of guns over students, people praying, people shopping- to the point of absurdity. I get it: y'all love your guns. I'm pro-gun too.
I've heard people say that they're buying Ak47s so when the government comes to take them they would be able to defend themselves. How cuckoo is that?
If ICE, the police, or soldiers come knocking at your door, you're the one that's going be doing the shooting. They'll take your guns only from your cold dead hands.
Yet, you obviously dont care about The Constitution at all. Not for freedom of speech. Not for the freedom to protest. Not for due process. Not for warrants. Not for anything except for yourself. Not for the legal rights to vote. Not for the checks and balances of our three branches of government. Definitely not for the separation of church and state( whatever happened to give Caesar what is Caesar's and give to God what is God's?).
For the Right- except for your holy 2nd Amendment- the Constitution just gets in the way. Worst of all, instead of a president you want a god/king.
Dont believe me? Trump or Jesus?
Unless you automatically chose Jesus, you are in what I would call a false religion, worshipping a golden idol.
You, on the other hand see Trump as a modern day, Joseph Smith or pope. You would not break from him for any reason. Any reason. To be clear,you would not break from him for any reason at all.
Trumpublican is the new way. Not a cult. A new modern branch of Christianity with Trump as their leader. The Bible says plenty about this...at the end times their will come a leader to lead even the chosen away- if possible.
Lets review: Trump over Christ. Guns and political power over the Constitution.
The main reason for religion in The United States of America is your right to have one...or even not to have one if you so choose.
There are too many questions to be asked if Americans are forced into the structures of a state run Christian Nationalism. The first and foremost is that we're would be at to whims of a god/king.
Christ said he came here to put mother vs. daughter-in-law. Father against son. To put your love of God above all of your personal relationships.
To love God with all your might all your mind all your soul and the second commandment is as the first to Love Thy Neighbor as thyself.
How can we do these things if we are forced into the bonds of captivity of the structures of the only one way to believe Christian Nationalism?
Bonds that claim gays should be stoned. Women should stay home barefoot and pregnant. White people are superior. And those that do not comply should be arrested?
I suggest this. A man that claimed that shooting deaths should just be part of our social worship of guns should neither be mourned nor glorified, but simply just another statistic that proves the exception to the norm that we are not safer when we bear arms.
Nuff said.
