Beyond Angry re Manchester

It is difficult to believe (and I don't know how it got to me) but a person/group calling itself 'Christian Voice' has implicitly blamed Ariana Grande's lesbianism for the terrorist attack.
It is difficult for me to comprehend the arrogance and wrongness and vileness of such a viewpoint. I suppose it is what one might expect from such self-appointed Guardians of Virtue. I notice they fail to condemn the terrorists.

The quote from the email is as follows :-

Our thoughts and prayers are with all affected by the Manchester Arena atrocity. But we need to take a look at Ariana Grande’s own image.

Do the parents of her adolescent fan-base know about Ariana’s lesbian imagery? ChristianVoice.org YUKK.

There is nothing more vile, no person more low than those willing to use a tragedy like this to forward their political viewpoint. Except perhaps those who are willing to use it for not just political gain, but also economic gain.

It's not just wrong - it's despicable. It's just another manifestation of evil.

Sadly,

It's not difficult at believe at all. When one is dedicated to a fanatical ideology, it is so damn easy to blame everything that goes wrong on that those who don't share that ideology. Those of us in the US see it after every major atrocity.

Sad but true

Religious fanatics will always get it wrong they are ignorant at best stupid at worst maybe they should be put on the suspect list and investigated as in invasive checks of back ground and opportunity it would at least get them on the watch list for terrorist activities. Not that they would understand that their behavior was at fault to begin with in the past religious organizations have been over looked because government was afraid of back lash time to change that kind of protected status.After all same sex relationships are not forbidden in any of the major religions. Just some thing to think about.

Have a good day and enjoy life.
