About the shooting in Connecticut. Twenty six people killed, the majority of them children. The event defies logic and definition. I decided not to write anything about it, mostly because it makes me beyond sad, but I do want to address one group of people who feel the need to use the event to further an agenda I perceive as highly warped.
The shooting did not take place because there is no prayer in public school. It was not the act of an angry god trying to get people back in line with Christ. I am, and have been, an atheist for many years. If I was even remotely considering joining a religion, statements like the aforementioned would steer me towards Judaism or even the Hare Krishnas.
Just because they only come every four years...
