Either way - the child holding a flag had to have been someone's idea.
Could of been her own idea. Wanting to join in the celebration.
Could of been a suggestion by a parent too, which she took a liking to.

Regardless, it doesn't look like she was forced to hold it/didn't want to hold it. Nothing I find suspicious.

You couldn't possibly know that, first of all.
Based on being a teacher and observer of how people process information, I can be highly confident of it.


Secondly, she clearly has already been coached to believe Jesus should be defied.
She's been taught to stand up to bullies.

What does a child being forced to do something look like? It's obvious this wasn't her idea. She has no idea what it even means and clearly she was targeting GOD, the one who does not approve of it.

And then decided to go stomp her feet in front of a man preaching the truth of God? I doubt it.
Intimidating little girls isn't "preaching the truth of God", it's intimidating little girls.

Besides, it isn't about him.
His behaviour is about him. And reflects his character. Neither of which are compatible with following jesus.
It's about the adults who told her to go hold the flag in front of the bad Jesus man.
Apparently, if they did, they were right about him.


That didn't take courage. It took prompting.
It still took character on her part.

Says who?

Wrong. He's warning these people, including this girl, about hell. He should be applauded.

Not in the least bit. That isn't character.

No he isn't. He's making himself feel good with some "them verses us" rhetoric that won't, in the context and his delivery, be heard as a warning at all.




Not in the least bit. That isn't character.
In a girl of her age, yes it is.

He's making himself feel good? It's amazing how you know exactly what she is thinking and exactly what he is thinking.

Not to me. She's being encouraged to stand there, first by her parents, and second, by all the high-fives. That's not character to me. Not any kind of character that is impressive, anyway.
