I am sorry that we will all be painted as murderers;
I am sorry for the shooter and his family;
I am NOT sorry that this murdering POS is dead. Now he faces God’s justice.
Tiller in church- what kind of church?
As a Christian I am sorry to see someone murdered. Don’t you worry that by celebrating someone’s death and invoking God in the same sentence you make Christians and antiabortion folks look like crazy nuts? The way to end abortion is to EDUCATE and VOTE, if everyone knew what was happeneing they would be SICK. But murder is not a Christian value!
Don’t blame the Church. A church should welcome all sinners in hope that they will repent.
An atheist "church".A "church" which,instead of teaching the Ten Commandments,teaches the Nine Suggestions.
The kind that tickles the ears.
A liberal one. Reformation Lutheran Church is Evangelical Lutheran Church in America which tends to be more liberal than other Lutheran branches. It varies a lot by church and pastor though. They are not all that far from their creation as an amalgamation of various Lutheran church denominations, and many individual churches retain much of their original identity.
The Missouri Synod tends to be the more conservative denomination.
They are having a special "Healing Prayer Service tonight May 31 at 7:00 pm at the church with Bishop Mansholt". Tiller was serving as an usher when he was shot. Operation Rescue, the anti-abortion group, issued the following statement:
We are shocked at this morning's disturbing news that Mr. Tiller was gunned down. Operation Rescue has worked for years through peaceful, legal means, and through the proper channels to see him brought to justice. We denounce vigilantism and the cowardly act that took place this morning. We pray for Mr. Tiller's family that they will find comfort and healing that can only be found in Jesus Christ.
I think we should take our cue from them.
