War on Christianity: Church Usher Gunned Down at Service
Friends, the threat we face from the Muslems, Liberals, Communists, and Labor Unions is indeed grave. We know that the Obama administration continues to try to squash our religious freedom, that department store Santas have been jailed for wishing children a Merry Christmas, and that there is a movement afoot to ban prayer in even religious schools. Today, however, we saw the hatred that these groups show towards our faith in an extreme act of cowardice in the usually God fearing state of Kansas and I for one am sick about it.
An usher at Reformation Lutheran Church in Witchita, Kansas was killed by a single gunshot while passing out church bulletins shortly after 10 a.m. Sunday. The victim, George Tiller, died on the scene in front of a horrified congregation. The church released the following statement, “In the wake of this tragic event, our deepest concern is for the family of George Tiller. We ask the community to join us in prayer for them as they face the difficult days ahead. Our hearts ache with them. We also ask that the family’s privacy be respected.”
Now that we have had our faith banished from the public square, to have the one place we could come to worship in peace become the site of a murder like this is unthinkable. Now, some on the loony left have started to claim that Tiller was an abortion doctor and that’s why he was killed, but that makes absolutely no sense. What part of “right to life” don’t the liberals get. Shooting a person while they are at church is sick and twisted even for a liberal.
The only reason that this man was shot is that he was yet another victim of the war against Christianity. His crime—passing out church bulletins. We must stand up for our faith even when we are attacked for it. We cannot let liberals like the man who shot Dr. Tiller silence us. We must stand united in testament to our great faith.
