These preachers are trying to scare the masses into giving them more power...letting them make the rules; same old con that
the clergy has been running since ancient times. And their extremely thin-skinned and sensitive God is so upset because little
kids aren't praying all day to Him, and not being taught that the earth is 6000 years old. How many of those 20 children were gay or had had abortions??? It is sickening. I went full atheist after 9/11, because any God with any compassion would never have allowed that to happen, nor this latest incident in Newtown. Theirs' is the same God, that, according to their scriptures, destroyed the world by flood when He got pissed off, and killed millions of innocent babies, kittens, puppies,...and bunnies!! And sends His son to earth to get the ever-loving shit beat out of him for some vague reason about salvation. Sorry..... getting carried away here.
