Knoxville Church Shooting - Progressive Theology

George Orwell said, "In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." Once again, Christianity in various forms has hit the news with tragedy. I am sure you all will mourn the loss of the family members and friends at the Unitarian Church. Please understand that though we differ drastically theologically, I still love them as fellow children of God. When the recent news station revealed that the man accused of murdering several congregants did so over an anger at their progressive views, I must admit that I was deeply saddened. I believe that the church has grown way too soft on very important issues that stem from topics as broad as sin and as specific as the role of homosexuals in the church. I am angry that instead of ministering in the culture of this world, we have let the prince of this world and current culture infect the church and our way of thinking. I am angry at the times when we have sat back and watched injustice and done nothing to change the hurt in the world, however; under no circumstances are you ever going to change hearts of people to Christ by shooting at them. What this man has done will have ripple effects for the name of Christ in the media in ways that can only make demons delighted. So people are liberal (whatever that actually means, I find it more of a loaded term) and have poor biblical theology, I am sure that when Jesus looks into the deepest darkest sins in our hearts he thinks we are quite liberal too!!! Please understand that I am not making an argument for tolerance of bad religion and theology, I just do not understand why the man killed people over their religious stance. Jesus ran up against all sorts of liberals and people of other religions. I do not ever remember him killing anyone for not accepting the gospel. In fact, he would tell stories, ask questions, confront sin, but never killed anyone. He never forced his beliefs on anyone. In fact, he loved the very people that crucified and killed him. Yes, the church does need to return to sound biblical theology, but not at the cost of killing other people Thoughts anyone? Why do you feel this man did this?
