The Orlando shooting - a "Rorschach test" for views
Reactions are predictable but first my own:
We live in a very wicked world where human life is devalued. I personally decry the taking of human life based on the principle that men are made in the image of God and that murder is against the moral code of God (the so-called 10 commandments). By "the Orlando shooting - a Rorschach test for views", I mean that so many commentators are reacting along fissures of world-views.
Samples (just a brief survey from the Internet ... my view is above):
- Support for LGBT rights
- "They got what was coming" / or "good news" See a warning about this
- Anti-Muslim
- Anti-immigration
- We need more gun control
- Pro-Trump / anti-Trump & politicians
- Some hope for humanity / no hope for humanity
- ISIS is a problem - wake up!
Article makes same points but better than my blog post: Orlando shooting exposes so many of America’s faultlines
