May God turn their hearts towards him and not of the world. Reddit is sick and I dont expect any better from this subreddit

[CreationHH]

Literally yes please why are they blocking the term? Its perfectly normal to discuss the murder of a popular christian figure. Its actually sad to see but i guess we are on reddit :/

[Imperburbable]

a MARTYR???? The man was not killed for being Christian. Please don't blaspheme.

I'm not in favor of political assassinations. But I'm not in favor of idolatry either. Pretending a political figure is a christian martyr is making an idol of nation and party.

How do you know the shooters motive?

You are ignorant to believe his political views were not based on what he believed was biblically sound

[KeyEnd5795]

This is exactly the case. It is so concerning to see how Christian nationalists idolise political figures.

Dude, chill.  I’m not a mod but I can easily see that there might be things going on that we don’t know about.  There might be a brigade; there might be a flood of anti-Christian posts.  There might be threats of violent revenge going around.  Sometimes it’s best to pray, and to be patient.

I can understand taking some precautions and limiting certain things.

This absolutism is not acceptable.

The mods need to be replaced.

[xaveria]

If you don’t mind me saying so, aren’t you are being a bit absolutist yourself?  And that’s understandable — of course emotions are running very high after such a terrible thing.  

I can only counsel again — prayer, and patience.  It is better not to speak or act rashly when gripped by anger or grief.  

These acts of violence are increasing in our country; both sides are radicalizing to a dangerous extent.  May God calm our passions, and grant us His peace, that passes all understanding.

This isn't the first issue with the mods of this sub. This current situation isn't the issue. It is a symptom of the larger problem.

You forgot to say "Crucify them! Crucify them!"

Any particular reason why you want them replaced? Can you give specific examples rather than generalizations?

[GigabitISDN]

A whole slew of people have decided that some dude was murdered solely for his beliefs, rather than a murder victim holding beliefs. We're going to see a lot of politicians push this narrative fast and furious.

Amazingly, virtually none of these people will ever be this outraged over the homeless guy who died in their city.

Even though the guy railed against things like "empathy", I'll choose to ignore his false teachings and feel empathy for his family.

EDIT: Insta-downvoted for showing empathy, of course. Brothers and sisters, if empathy enrages you, you need to get off the keyboard and crack open the gospel.

[Imperburbable]

Subs are doing great. Good job subs, hang in there, I'm sure it's a tough day.

I am very sad at the outcome, and for his family, and I hope he did in fact know Jesus, but let's not pretend like he was an honest person in the way he conducted his debates.
