I wonder what the gathered Christians who want the attacker would do? As a fellow Christian, I know what your impulse reaction would be…now, what would Jesus expect you to do? Technically the attacker is a victim of Satan. Do we throw out all of Christ teachings and butcher his guy? Do we crucify him? The attacker should and will face judgement from man here on Earth. I’m looking forwards to the priest response to this. I’m betting it will be spot on to what Jesus would expect. As in forgiveness. As in do not blame the attacker, blame the one who brings forth sin. Who knows, maybe the attacker will be an advocate for Jesus one day? When something like this happens, it isn’t just a test for the attacker, or priest….it’s for all of us. But, we are human. And are tired of injustice. So it’s hard no doubt. What’s the best we could do?

Fuck that, we want his blood. Just like the good old times.
Then we'll ask Jesus to forgive us. Just like the good old times.
Hmm.. I don't feel very positive about committing sins with the express purpose of apologizing for it later.
I think Earthly justice should include the death penalty for him, but it shouldn't be done just because we can ask for forgiveness after.
