Dad Of A Columbine Victim Asks “Why Did This Happen?”

[jcgssg]

I'm sorry, i got your names mixed up. Blame it on my lack of education.

What do people have to lose by coming to Christ?
If atheists/evolutionists are right, they AND I have nothing to worry about when we die.BUT, if the Bible IS the Truth, I STILL have nothing to worry about when I die, however , they certainly do.
John 3:3 says it all . Jesus said it.

Jerry, I'm sure Jeff has an education. He obviously has researched the issue and believes that evolution is just as you stated, a theory. Until scientist, who are extremely educated can prove this theory, which they still cannot do positively, it will remain a theory. If you chose to place your trust in this theory it is your right to do so. It is also Jeff's right to believe what the bible states about creation. Why must you espouse that people who do not fall in line with your way of thinking are uneducated. Isn't it amazing the Bible has something to say about those who believe they are intellectually superior. Romans 1:22 "Professing themselves wise, they became fools."

You pray to your imaginary god; I'll think. We'll see who comes out on top.

Jerry,sadly you seem to be counted among the wide path. All we (Christians) can do is pray for you.

JeffinWi said: "I find it interesting that people who believe in evolution(EVILution) can find it much easier to believe we all evolved from soup/rocks than being created by God. Also, seashells have been found on Mount Everest. Unless they somehow grew wings, the ONLY way they could have gotten there was from a worldwide flood 4000 years ago."

Jeff, your ignorance of science (and reality in general) is appalling and sad. I shudder to think that you and your ilk actually vote. Please get an education.

FredomEarned, my point was that it would be stupid for someone to attack the theory of gravity just because the towers fell. This is essentially what the creationists do when they blame evolution -- a widely accepted theory supported by literally mountains of evidence -- for tragedies like Columbine.

The truth is often repugnant...

The word repugnant is defined in one place as "distasteful, objectionable, or offensive", and, that is true. The truth, to those who are opposed to it, is often repugnant. To the fool, who says in his heart that there is no God, the truth that the universe could not have come into existence without a creator is very repugnant. So, when Katie Couric said many would find the things spoken by Brian Rohrbough to be repugnant, she was correct. I am not among that number, thankfully, I must say.

I cringe for my country, when I remember that God is just and fair, and that His judgment will not be withholden forever from any ungodly nation the likes of which as this one has become. It makes me sad, no happy in the least, to know that her judgment is near, and that I can do nothing to help her to escape it; for, she will not repent. I believe that the prophet Jeremiah felt this same way for Israel before her fall; for, the book of Lamentations says so if you can read between the lines.

"Righteousness is exalting a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people." - Proverbs 14:34

"Pride is going before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall." - Proverbs 16:18

Her sin is her reproach, and, her pride is her greatest sin.

I consider myself an evangelical christian yet to my father i'm a liberal. I don't know who is right. Probably a bit of both.

In the blogsphere we are offered an opportunity to express our opinion about various topics. And express we do..with a vengence. I'm not sure what I think of that, but blogs are fairly new and can grow in any direction. But I don't think I like what I see as yet.

I didn't have the opportunity to see Mr. Rohrbaugh but I read it. Everyone should read it again and ask what really was said that was objectionable?

That he's saddened and shaken by what is happening in our schools? That he questions why his son died in so useless a manner? That the country is in a moral free fall? That the strong kill the weak, without moral consequences and life has no inherent value. That the murder of innocent children is always wrong? That suicide has become an acceptable action and has further emboldened these criminals. That we are seeing an epidemic increase in murder-suicide attacks on our children. That sadly, our schools are not safe? Have you Listened to the news lately?

I think these things are true. Mr. Rohrbaugh and I don't agree on the hot topics of abortion and religion in the classroom...but that was the least of what he said. Yet most of the responses responded to these hot buttons.

If we can stop waving our own flag and see what we have in common maybe we can work together to make a difference!
