Shed a tear for the fallen innocent.
They went straight to heaven.

Shed a tear for the fallen innocent.
They went straight to heaven.
That’s of little comfort to the family left behind to deal with such a senseless, horrific tragedy.

Don’t worry. I’d say there is very little chance those innocents will ever meet Mr Ima in heaven.

Jesus said, “Suffer the little children to come unto Me.”
Whether the parents believe or not, He will take care of the children.
Mr Ima, PlainBill: I’m with you, Brothers.

@Mr. King
“The two buried on Monday were Jewish and they don’t believe in heaven. Where did they go?”
I’m sure your comment wasn’t realistically about “heaven,” but I try to shed light where helpful.
“At death the soul and body separate. King Solomon said, “The dust will return to the ground as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it” (Ecclesiastes 12:17). This means the soul returns to heaven, back to God, where it is enveloped in the Oneness of the Divine."

@Mr. King
There are different versions of Judiasm. The one I was brought up in teaches that this is what we get. When you die ….there is no afterlife. So you do your best every day because this is it.

Yeah, anyway, that’s not how Christian Heaven works either.
.
You die you go to purgatroy, you hope that the buddists are right and that there are people left behind who pray for you enough because that’s what gives you a better purgatory seat while you wait.
.
He will come again to judge the living and the dead! THAT is when you get to go to Heaven (if He says you were so judged).
.
You don’t die and go to Heaven at the same time! The 26 named above might one day get into Christian Heaven, but right now (in our concept of time) they’re not.
.
As if that would make it “alright” anyway!
.
You “religious” folks just don’t pay attention to the rules do you?

Depends on which “Version” of the rules you are referring to. While I won’t say anyone is wrong, I will say that most of us have posted our belief s we understand them. Sometimes we get caught up between that which we have been taught by church dogma and what is actually written in our Sacred Tomes.

wow, ima, mickey
i had no idea that the violent, vicious extermination of these people was really a quiet beautiful thing. maybe you should go out and give more children and their defenders this gift.

@Dredpiraterobt$
Dredpiraterobt$ said “You die you go to purgatroy,…” No such place in Christianity; only in Catholicism. In Christianity, the dead sleep until the Second Coming.
DrCanuck said, 5 months ago
^ And the whole debate comes down to where to put the comma.
I tell you, this day you will be with me in heaven.
I tell you this day, you will be with me in heaven.

@DrCanuck
I don’t have my Greek bible at home, but I bet there’s no comma in the Greek at all. Now of course if he really said it, it was Aramaic, not Greek, and spoken rather than written. Anyway, you’d think God could be a little more clear. He could have said “I tell you you will be in heaven with me this day” or “We’ll meet again, don’t know where, don’t know when….”

Thank God the families of these children aren’t reading some of these comments! How cruel some of you are!
NIce to the point tribute, Steve! “Remember the Fallen” who died senselessly!
And let us also pray for the First Responders who happened upon those classrooms!
