2nd Chance Idol: Echo Chamber

When I think of this, what comes to mind are the rants and temper tantrums I've had with God, trapped inside my mind, and helpless to the invasions of the world's various different plights. The betrayals, gas lightings, and lies of my enemies building up, like a herd of elephants on my head. The success of everyone around me, but not mine, no

My college roommate commented after the Virginia Tech shooting that Jesus still loved the shooter too as long as he asked for forgiveness when he died. I said what about Hitler? She said same. I still don't understand that kind of thinking.

Yeah. I understand it, I do NOT agree with it, but I understand it. The thing is, I have truly had other realities and knowledge bases thrown in my face to "test" my belief. That line of thought is basically extremely naive. People who accept it don't generally know just how truly evil, evil is. I assure you, God does not love such monsters. The VT shooter, maybe, but whole leaders of whole armies set out on a genocide campaign...NOPE. There is so much involved in the exertion of personal will to do these things we naturally KNOW are massively wrong - the amount of disregard for God is so HUGE compared to the action of an individual losing their mind. The thing is, that doesn't mean it's our job to forgive and co-exist with a murderer. Innocence tends to blindly obey, without question, which unfortunately also, usually, means without discernment - and there you have the understanding of that kind of thinking. It's not right in the ways of the world we know, but it is obedient, and innocence will not risk put that in jeopardy. Thank

This was a very interesting read, and demonstrative of a very raw and relatable echo in the human mind
