[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Barack Obama said tonight the way to look at the massacre is from an eternal perspective.

How do atheists process his words of comfort and hope?[/quote]

Well, he quoted some scripture that said that.  He probably had to quote scripture, given it was a religious service.  Not only do I think 22:54 stated it beautifully,[b] I think Obama's an atheist and would agree with him/her[/b].[/quote]

Interesting.  You think he is completely faking his Christianity?  What makes you believe that?  He's too smart to believe in God?

Here's what he said last night:

"Scripture tells us:  “…do not lose heart.  Though outwardly we are wasting away…inwardly we are being renewed day by day.  For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.  So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.  For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands.”

...

[Love] is what we can be sure of.  And that’s what you, the people of Newtown, have reminded us.  That’s how you’ve inspired us.  You remind us what matters.  And that’s what should drive us forward in everything we do, for as long as God sees fit to keep us on this Earth.

“Let the little children come to me,” Jesus said, “and do not hinder them — for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.”

Charlotte.  Daniel.  Olivia.  Josephine.  Ana.  Dylan.  Madeleine.  Catherine.  Chase.  Jesse.  James.  Grace.  Emilie.  Jack.  Noah.  Caroline.  Jessica.  Benjamin.  Avielle.  Allison.

God has called them all home.  For those of us who remain, let us find the strength to carry on, and make our country worthy of their memory.

May God bless and keep those we’ve lost in His heavenly place.  May He grace those we still have with His holy comfort.  And may He bless and watch over this community, and the United States of America."

You think that was insincere?[/quote]
