Comments on: George Carlin is dead http://churchvoices.com/archives/522 Tue, 06 Jan 2009 23:43:07 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 By: deb froat http://churchvoices.com/archives/522/comment-page-1#comment-11493 deb froat Sun, 29 Jun 2008 00:30:32 +0000 http://churchvoices.com/?p=522#comment-11493 The only thing that I felt when Carlin died was disappointment in myself. It never occurred to me to pray for this man. In my own defense, I didn't really stop to think about him that much. I liked a few of his comedy bits but that was the extent of his intrustion in my daily life. So, now I've decided to spend some time before Church each week praying for other atheists. That is what we as Christians are called on to do. As far as deciding-or gloating-about who is in hell, I'd rather leave such decisions to God. But I can't imagine being happy that someone is seperated from God for eternity. The only thing that I felt when Carlin died was disappointment in myself.

Or that a "Christian" would rejoice at the death of anybody other than a Christian. That’s pretty messed up that “Christians” would look at him as their enemy and rejoice.
