"...theologizing and judgmentalism..."

When I hear about these things, when I emerge from my morning shower to find my six year old, in front of the small television in my bedroom, watching this story being discussed on the "Today" show, I get to feeling MIGHTY judgemental.

Lots of questions to answer, some measure of innocence lost, forever, because I made the mistake of leaving my child alone in front of the usually inoccuous morning chit-chat show.

Bludgeoned? With rocks? Sweet Mary Mother of God, what's to friggin' discuss? How many times must we be burdened with these stories and see the looks on the young faces of our kids when they get assaulted with news of this evil when I'm expecting Al Roker to be doing the damn weather?

Send her to her Maker, perhaps He can forgive her. I can't. And won't.

What the hell?!

I agree with you 100%. "God told me to". Even Islamic asshole terrorists do it "for Allah" and not because "Allah told them to".

It's Texas so the DP is not out of the question.

Good retort BR!

I maybe slipping into a panoptic field of cow patties, but...imho, cause & effect affects this kind of horror.

One could ask....how could this atrocity happen? Forget the drugs she should'a taken or the psyco-babble excuses.

He's my take. An unquestioned and blind acceptance of "any" rigid religiosity will fail the seeker. It's akin to putting a skateboarder on the Cross-Bronx Expressway, telling'em the pot-holes are no big deal.

I confess and acknowledge, as an ex-altar boy and 'fallen' Catholic,(of many moons ago), to find spirituality, peace and calm in a Higher Power who offers comfort, more to my liking...I pray, hope the prayer's are being heard, BUT, please...I don't think I'll be getting "voices" back. At least while I'm still wearing this mortal coil.
