Well, I do like to look at things from all angles and consider all sides before forming a firm opinion.
So.....consider this: Maybe MS is right?
Maybe Christ didn't find Tamir Rice worthy of intervention or saving. In which case, any true Christian would feel blessed that a 12-year-old had his stomach and intestines shot out, laid bleeding in pain without assistance in the park, and died several hours later in a hospital bed when his body and brain shut down completely. The kid deserved it; he was from a poor ghetto family and he WAS playing with a fake gun in the public park after all! Christ had no love or hope for Tamir Rice and apathetically disowned one of God's children. Such is the word of the Lord (according to the gospel of MS). Amen.
OR
Maybe Christ had planned to intervene and save Tamir Rice from his pitiful worthless existence, but Christ was too busy answering more worthy calls from some bigoted, middle-aged, suburban dipshit praying for the strength to keep his mind and fingers from succumbing to sinful sexting temptation, again. Christ has his priorities after all.
OR
Maybe MS is wrong and has no business speaking for Christ or painting Christ in his image. Maybe MS has a very distorted, bastardized, self-serving concept of Christianity and he's completely full of shit.
Having looked at it from all angles and considered all sides, I'd bet it all on the latter --were I a betting woman.
