I’m not sure that I need to apologize for anything I said. I posted what I did in order to clear up some questions about Unitarians that were appearing on the thread.

You make a good point about “they will know you by your love for one another.” But technically speaking, Unitarians aren’t Christians, which is the original point I made.

One component of Biblical love is telling the truth. And that’s what I did. It may seem harsh, but I’ll take care of that in a minute.

So, right, I’m not winning any “Super-Dad” warm-fuzzy-love points. I’m not “Super-Dad” in this situation because I don’t personally know any of the victims.

Let’s be honest here: unless I really missed something in your post on this thread, you have absolutely no connection to any of the victims in this tragedy, either.

If you have a personal connection to the tragedy, I offer my condolences to you and the families.

As a result, I can be dispassionate about the tragedy and have a fair amount of objectivity about it.

What I did was to inform the thread about Unitarianism. It isn’t Christian.

And being a Christian and aware of what God says about situations about like this, I said what I did. And I’d do it again. I’ll provide Bible references if asked.

Biblically speaking, the biggest tragedy here is that there is a group of 200 or so Unitarians that are uninformed, ignorant or worse as to the knowledge of true salvation from their sins. And that’s independent of the Christian-hating gunman.

You’re right - the prayer for the dead was in reference to another post on the thread. Sorry for the confusion.
