All in R&S, atheist, christian or otherwise...?

Would you like to send a prayer / thoughts for those who lost one of their babies during the conneticut school shooting today?? Here's a chance to prove we're all equally human. I have two kids whom I'm gonna hug and kiss hard when they get home from school 2day... I can't imagine, seding your child off to school and then getting a phone call telling you your child's been shot dead by a crazy gunman. 20 kids...

Please, send your best thoughts or prayers to these families... Would you?

    I appreciate your sentiment, but as an atheist I can't send a prayer, and I know that my positive thoughts do nothing to help. This is a horrible situation, and the only thing that will bring even a remote sense of healing is time.

    even whilst i became youthful and raised in a Methodist relatives, the Genesis tale of creation did no longer make lots sense to me. Even then, it regarded like something from so some time past that it became practically incredibly different delusion jumbled in with some certainty. It became never under pressure as something to be taken actually because of the fact it became so historical and the recent testomony became so lots greater significant. bearing directly to the only difficulty left of my Christian upbringing is my attitudes approximately humility, love, non-judgment and forgiveness of others. For that lots of it. i'm very grateful.

    This doesn't just effect the victims, it effects us all. We should strive to healing our country, stop fighting so much, and really show our kids we care about them by doing so. I have candles lit in memory of the children and teachers but it's pointless if we don't extend some love to everyone we see today and every day.

    Of course, I wish nothing but for peace for all those who were involved. Hopefully people will one day realize that there is no need or justification for violence, for any reason. Acting out this way on children none the less is so hard to understand...
