7/3/09 Edit: The New York Times has since also covered the story. A friend of mine pointed out that Christians and their clinging to “rights” is even more disastrous than simply clinging to guns… I agree. Apparently, Jesus actually died to protect your individual liberties and 2nd amendment rights (and not to redeem humanity from sin, suffering, and death).
I officially have a new favorite picture IN THE WORLD (see below). This news story about a church in Louisville would be really disturbing, except that I would like to believe that people (who would dare to call themselves Christians no less) who would do this are so few and far between as to not really matter at all… this is what I would like to believe. The article did also mention that there was a rival gun-free event held simultaneously across town by other religious groups. I should hope so!!! If I lived in L-ville and was aware of this craziness ahead of time, I would certainly be at that rival event waving a banner high.
(On a personal note, my entire extended family hails from Louisville and I am very familiar with the city… so ha!).
