Don Lemon ~ "... that is not what God is about. God is not about hindering people or even judging people."
Hmmm ... maybe Don should read Psalm 9, verses 7 & 8:
"The Lord reigns forever; he has established his throne for judgment.
He rules the world in righteousness and judges the peoples with equity.
Don should also read Proverbs:
Proverbs 18:2 ~ "A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion."
Proverbs 1:7 ~ "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction."
Proverbs 18:6 ~ "A fool's lips walk into a fight, and his mouth invites a beating."
Proverbs 10:23 ~ "Doing wrong is like a joke to a fool, but wisdom is pleasure to a man of understanding."
The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted. ~ D.H. Lawrence
