Its ok to feel that way.
But even better is to take it to God.
He will not lecture you.
He will form you and finish you.

I can comprehend the sorrow and anger, the utter powerlessness that people feel when something tragic happens.
While prayers are said and felt from the heart for the young angel and her family, understand that some others are also deeply affected and cannot understand why this had to happen.
I do hope our freeper friend will take the time to seek out a capable minister, rabbi, priest of layperson to help them cope with the futility of it all.

May God bless young Delaney and may her family and loved ones find peace and compassion in this season of goodwill.

The world is condemned because of man's choices. Whether you like it or not you're a sinner too.

Romans 3:23

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

That's why we celebrate today the birth of a Savior. We needed Him, all of us. That little child now lives in perfection with God.

"Curiously, the carolers appear to have sung no religious songs. The press reported only Rudolph, Jingle Bells and a couple of other entirely secular favorites. Was this really all the poor girl wanted and all the singers did?"

Perhaps the carolers did sing Religious songs but the press is refusing to report that detail lest they offend some non Christian group. It'd be nice if one of the 10 thousand present would tell us what they sang.

Everyone is busy trying to find the beauty or meaning in a child's death. There is NONE. It is a corpse being buried in the filthy earth. It is the END of joy and light, not the beginning. That is what death is.

It's life and what one does with one's life that counts, not death.

You have a sick and twisted view of the world. I pray for folks like you as you do more harm than those you rail against.

In the videos they’re singing “Silent Night”, “Joy to the World”, and other religious carols.

Search videos on line. First two I called up had "Silent Night" and "Joy to the World".

They had a song leader with a mike and loudspeaker to get everyone singing the same thing . . .

“She was murdered by society.”

No, she died or a disease.

“I will forever hate the majority of adult humans on this planet.”

Then you should seek out professional help. Being a misanthrope helps no one - especially the misanthrope.

One would have to believe that the majority of adult humans on this planet wouldn't be real crazy about you either.

Yes and what if God hates the majority of adults? Why He would not have sent His son Jesus the Savior.

They showed up to feel good about themselves and brag to their friends that they were there. That is the only reason...that and try to get on TV.

Excuse me... I not only live in this area but I happen to know many of the people who loved this child, prayed for her, held fund raisers to help with the families mounting expenses, organized the caroling event on short notice and today grieve her loss to us for nothing more than to show love in a careless world... You are an a$$hole...

While I AGREE with you abut the “vermin” in society....even IF all of the “wasted money” had gone to “research” there is NO way to know if the outcome would have been different. ..
