May God use this tragedy to draw people to repentance and redemption. What a sad story.

No. A thousand time no.

God, if there be one, should lead people to stop killing each other. Fie on Christian self-aggrandizement.

Nice of you to tell God what he should do. It's like a convicted criminal telling the judge that he should stop criminals from being criminals.

 

[Tinker Grey]

Just like I'd tell Dumbledore and Gandalf what they should do.

Sounds like a young man who had his priorities right.

A brave hero indeed. He deserves all the credit he receives.

No.
I don't have to be to understand the context of his answer.
And since after all this time he doesn't appear to wish to answer for himself, it's subject to interpretation. It's a public board.

You're right. It is the football player.

You win nothing. Lol.

The point is we are told: "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends."

Didn't think there was a prize involved. Meanwhile, your loss is yours right on down the line.

I hope somehow I am misunderstanding a well intentioned post and that you aren't seriously trolling in a thread where a young man gave his life to save others...

Alright.. you win my gratitude.

What about his three word initial reply could possibly be construed as well intentioned?
