As the stranger wrapped her arms around Sposito and whispered a prayer in her ear, Sposito’s eyes grew watery. “That’s normal here,” Sposito, 23, said afterward. “I did not grow up a big devout Christian, but moving here, you can feel it. Its undeniable.”
“Marketed Christianity is everywhere,” he added. “And not everything that is successfully marketed as Christianity is moral. Not everything that is marketed as Christianity reaches basic standards of public safety.”huddled in prayer circles around makeshift memorials. Audience members and local leaders called out to God at the citywide vigil. And residents rushed to impromptu church services for comfort from the pain, lighting candles in victims’ memories.
“The culture here, it all points back to Christianity and the Lord. And I do think Nashville is an amazing city because the presence of the Lord is so strong here,” said Sposito. “That’s why I think it’s incredibly difficult to see that this happened to a Christian school. But know that it is a strong faith community and we will get through this because our faith is so strong.”
“This is not a time for hate or rage. That will not resolve or heal,” said Lee, whose children attended a sister school to Covenant and whose wife was close friends with two of the women killed. “The battle is not against flesh and blood, it’s not against people. The struggle is against evil itself. … We must work to find ways to protect against evil.”
“We adore this church. There is a reason it happened here,” she added, almost whispering. “The Lord does beautiful work here and Satan wants to stop it.”But not all Christians here think that prayer is the answer — or at least, the only one. The day of the shooting, he said, “was sad. It was a time for crying and reflection. But today is a time for anger. There has been too much complacency. Now we need to act.”
Return fire.
Buy more guns to protect ourselves from Luciferian Democrat terrorists.
Shameless political biased garbage peddling rag.
Defend themselves. Duh.
The Christian thing to do is buy 6 more this week and 6 more next week😁
Yes, place all focus on inanimate objects and ignore a killer who was a psycho trans person. Brilliant.
Buy more and use them against attackers.
Interesting that when it's a white male that does the shooting, that's the first thing that's in the headlines, but when it's a transvestite that does it, nobody says anything
Jesus Christ was persecuted and murdered by his own government.
The Christian thing to do is to not punish legal gun owners for the misdeeds of others. We all know what ur aim is here though. Completely disingenuous on ur part.
Ez Peary-Don’t kill people with them.
Read Luke 22:36
What kind of a question is that? As Americans, we have the right to protect ourselves and our families under the 2ND Amendment of the Constitution. You hacks.
That's easy. The Christian thing to do is not to use guns to kill innocent people.
'he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.' Luke 22:36
'After a trans shooter killed 3 children & 3 adults at a Christian school, the trans community is facing a contoversial question: how do we make the trans shooter the victim and blame it on the gun' I'm sure that's what you meant to say. It is, isn't it?
As a Christian, I refuse to be lectured about guns, by people who believe its ok to abort a 'clump of cells'
shoot back
Onward Christian soldiers
What's the transgender thing to do about them? They're the ones using them.

Thou shall not murder - Not never kill. To protect children, life, yourself - absolutely
Journalists are evil
I wonder if WaPo ever asked, after NY, CA, etc passed abortion up to birth, if it was time for uber democrats to face a question about that? I don't read WaPo since it doesn't prize independent journalism, does anyone know if did?
Another 'controversial question': what's the liberal thing to do about deranged trans?
What’s the Christian thing to do about psychiatric medicine, the biomedical model? A unifying theory of evil. Destroying the evidence/importance of how we feel and our life experiences. We tried to stop the effect of this model in the Nuremberg trails
If you’ve ever wondered what gaslighting is, this is a pretty heaping dose of it…
Tell us, what’s the Jewish, Hindu, Muslim, et al thing to do? Valid question- you want to ask questions w/regard what followers of “X” should do, at least have the integrity to be thorough.
Yeah, grappling between a 10.3 or 11.5” barrel lol. Ain’t no body struggling with nothing, champ.
I'm guessing it's not 'grab a gun and go shoot a school.'
We the people would like to Impeached every Government Official that are Republicans due to Incompetence and Racism! We do not need these type of people making decisions on our country!!! They are trying to go back in history! Tennessee has a sick law passing to lynch!! Sickening
WTF?
Buy more guns and even more ammo is the Christian thing to do then volunteer at mental health clinics to help these poor moor ons
No, the community faced a nation confused about a hate crime.
Be as gentle as a dove, and wise as a serpent.
Pravda on the Potomac is going to lecture on how to be a 'Good Christine'? Thanks for the laugh. Can I lecture you on how to be on honest newspaper and fairly report both sides of an issue without taking sides?
This is an easy question to answer. The “thou shalt not kill” commandment pretty much covers it.
Use them to defend your loved ones and yourself from evil.

The Left is in no position to Comment on any 'Mass Shootings' as long as they refuse to Negotiate the Need to FORCIBLY TREAT & MEDICATE Crazy people 🤫
So the problem isn't the mentally ill person, but Christians? Religionsplaining.
Gandi said he liked our Christ but not our christians... I doubt he really studied Christ , who was not all mushy love like most people like to portray Jesus. Jesus was as righteous as he was holy & he called a viper when he saw one , he beat the money changers & got angry.
6 People killed by a pedophile Transgender that you are defending. IT killed 3 kids. You suck.
Get armed, get trained, and be ready for the Godless -- who now conveniently coopt the God they deny access to the rest of their lives
There's a time for PEACE & a time for WAR..... Whomever chooses to USE the sword.....will DIE by the sword! Translation: Threaten me or my family.... Both Mr. Smith & Mr. Wesson will guarantee that you will see your TIMELY EXIT from planet Earth!
Yes blame the Christians for their kids being murdered. Tell Christians to give up their guns right when left-wing violence against them is ramping up. WaPo hates Christians, like most of the rest of the loony wing of the Dems so if I was a Christian I wouldn’t listen to them for…
Not all of us are Christians. But all of us live under the Constitution. Anyone who doesn't want to own a firearm is free to not own one. The rest of us will.
Christian thing to do about guns? You ass clowns.... and you wonder why people hate you?
Read the Bible.
Bigotry at Wapo.
Get your own so you can defend yourself from violent trans people.
Separation of church and state is easy to overlook to meet your political objective? Journocrat
We should protect our kids with at least as much enthusiasm as we protect politicians and banks.
Thanks for my daily reminder of why I canceled my subscription.
I’d say we train more, keep teaching our children how to be good, law abiding citizens, and how to use firearms. This madness is not caused by Christians…
The only reason that WaPo is asking this question is because the non-Christian writers found a left wing Christian academic to tell them what they want to hear. They wouldn’t write the article otherwise.
To keep them to defend against oppressors.
Mind their own damn business since it's irrelevant to the Constitution.
Nice strawman
always carry!
IIRC Jesus said something about selling your cloak to buy a sword. Being Christian means to seek peace, but it does not mean to let criminals and murders kill and harm people while you stand by and watch.
Protect our Children with the same level of security that we protect politicians.... i.e. People with Guns on scene.
Buy more guns.
Democracy Dies with the bunch of ding dongs who wrote this headline.
When everyone can keep these two commandments… YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND, and YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF. No will need to defend themselves.
On the lady deuce we have a 50 cal mini gun along with other small arms and secret armaments for protection against mental deranged murderers like her.
How bout “what’s the Muslim thing to do about the suicide vest?”
Are Christians supposed to be stupid and allow to be murdered?
Let more people carry to save lives from insane activist killers.
Buy more to protect yourself from the thugs in the federal government
Buy more.
Jesus said if you don't have a sword, to sell your cloak and buy one.
Pack harder, Christian.
The only Christian thing to do is stay out of politics and help people who actually need help.
Luke 22:36 Jesus said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.
I would ban certain people from the community. And possible from being part of the school.
The modern Democrat party would AGAIN confiscate guns as they did from former slaves before lynching them in the post-emancipation era. And they’d call that Christianity, justified by the very evil they coddle via low bail and reduced sentences.
It's not a church decision. THIS IS AN INDIVIDUAL AND PERSONAL DECISION
Why not ask non-Christians what they should do about their hatred that drives them to murder?
A mass shooter = TRANS!!!!!!!!
What about transgender terrorists targeting christians?
Shall not infringe.
Sell your cloak and buy a sword.
Get one!
* What’s the Christian thing to do about guns? * Buy one! *
Allow people to protect themselves......
Jesus said, 'If a wise man knew the hour the thief would come in the night, he would be up and ready and not allow his home to be plundered.' Jesus never told a soldier, 'If you follow me, you'll have to give up that line of work.' I believe Jesus would have defended the kids.
The real question is what to do about the mentally ill who commit mass murders? You can take away their guns but that won’t stop them as long as there are alternatives to guns like cars, bombs, fires, poison gas, knives etc I wish those pushing gun control were smarter
Use them to protect yourself, your family, and the church, per Luke 22:35-38.
Read Nehemiah 4:17-23 in the Bible. Deduce from that scenario. That is the response.
The Christian thing to do is to buy more guns, have them in church or christian schools, love your neighbor by being willing to defend their lives, and look out for deviants who want to murder children. Hint: the transgender ideology is the problem.
We have a responsibility to defend our bodies, the temple where the Spirit of God resides. We have a duty to safeguard our lives from evil men imposing the threat of death with whatever action it takes to prevail. What’s the Christian thing to do? Clean your gun after shooting.
The Las Vegas shooter was white male and straight. No one starts shooting people because someone was rude to them. Had nothing to do with gender or sexual preference. It was evil period. The fact he used gun had ZERO to do with it. with 400m guns/20mAR's it's too late to talk ban
America is a violent place. Always has been. Always will be. Go to the inner city, the barrio, the rural holler, and see how that gun control fantasy works out …
Jesus Christ, THAT'S what you go with?
you people are absolute jokes. don't mock our faith to get your partisan politics established. What are you going to do about fanatical, violent transgenderism?
This is sick.
😂
What do they do? ..... they obey the laws. What do Trans do? Slaughter children. What do you do? Play dumb.
Mind your own business Humble yourself before God
The answer is: get more guns to protect ourselves from people who hate us as much as the shooter did.
Train often and defend your rights
Good Lord you tweeted this.
What’s the Christian thing to do about guns? Remember it's about the hand that the gun was in and not the gun. Cain killed Abel and was judged not the rock.
Buy more guns to protect their freedoms!
What's the Christian thing to do about mental illness is more like it.
They arm themselves against crazy, homicidal maniacs.
愿逝者往生西方极乐世界阿弥陀佛🙏
If guns were simply vials of “instant death” that you could throw at a living human being to cause their death… which semi-automatic weapons pretty much are… why would this be easier to resolve?
Are you kidding me?
Project much? I'll wager entire story was conceived & completed in a DC Starbucks. Appropriating a religion is WORSE than appropriating a culture. Esp if it's to make cheap, meaningless political points. I'd say 'shame on you,' but you lack the capacity. Evil, pure evil...
All law abiding citizens need to purchase several firearms, get trained and carry concealed to protect ourselves from violent, radical leftists.
Don’t tell trans people they’re being genocided by the religious right. It’ll help more than gun control I promise.
'After a deranged left trans shooter killed six people Monday at Covenant School...' ... title fixed
The gun isn’t the problem. It’s an inanimate object and cannot be loaded, carried or fired on its own. A person has to be behind the gun. How about you stop pushing gender dysphoria onto people and maybe their mental health will be better!
The gun didn’t kill anyone. A person did. How about asking what’s the Christian thing to do about the obvious mental health crisis this country has been having for a while now.
Jesus said, “But now let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one” - Luke 22:36–38 ESV
And the death penalty needs to be brought back like hanging in the town square.
We need to address indoctrination by leftists, and I want to read the manifesto.
Arm up (for self defense). The socialists are coming.
Wtf WAPO? 6 Christians were just murdered, they are the victims. The murderer is not the victim.
Well let’s start with harsher punishments and or sentences
Can we help the Trans Community find tools other than intimidation, murder, violence and terror to express their position?
Read the constitution and you’ll have the answer
I guess the “trans” thing to do about Christians, is slaughter them. WaPo is disgusting
I think this is about right
Duck?
Yup, your move Christians.
Just asking: Jesus never had a gun, right?
The Christian thing to do about guns? Own one, get trained and buy another!
Christians need guns to protect themselves against WokeCultTerrorists
Read: What are godless illiberal lefties going to try and pressure Christians into doing? You're kinda gross.
The Christian thing to do is to punish those who committed the sin.
Clever…. Making a problem out of the tool not the insane ideology of the woman pulling the trigger.
Oh, please! The secular anti-Christian press, nytimes & sadly too, are either consciously trying to turn this tragedy into an attack on the victims, standard practice by press & libDems, or so ignorant about Christianity they don't realize Presbyterian Churches…
Not really . . .
Protecting yourself and your loved ones is Biblical. Luke 10:19, Luke 11:21, Nehemiah 4:14.
easy, disarm the FBI so they can't supply weapons to the shooters they brainwashed.

Trans person killing because they were Christians. Missing tons of context.
You know the Christians are brutally attack and forces converted to Islam in all over world,,, So the Islamic is growing fearly,,, But Christian population going down to down,,, What can do the media of the world to save them,,,?
KristianMMeyer There is no doubt there is a reason for everything, God for sure moves in his time not yours or any other. Seeing your comment only proves why the blind fall into the ditch. When told it was just a gnat did you still swallow the camel
All journos deserve the wall.
Take their guns and give them a rock and sling. David took off Goliaths nuts with a sling and a rock.
Sell you cloak and buy a sword...
It’s nuts out there. Protect yourselves, don’t listen to the noise, protect your children’s schools with defense.
The Christian thing to do about guns is to fix the family. The family is the problem, not the gun. In 1850, 3rd graders brought guns to school. On the way home, they used their one bullet and brought dinner home. The family is the problem. That is the Christian thing to do.
Buy more guns and ammo to protect the Christian community
Buy ‘em. Looks like they’re going to need them.
Good Christians' guns aren't the problem.
Literally no Christians are discussing that
This is all due to over exposure and poor mental health resources…
Do not accept peace with evil, as the Pharisees would have us do, destroy evil!
Surely, more degeneracy is the answer!
Sell your cloak and buy a sword?
The best they can do is blame mental illness.

I suspect they didn’t all join the NRA.
I guess their god didn’t see a purpose in saving them
True Christian thing to do about guns is to ban them and save children's lives!
The ‘Christian’ thing would be to own and know how to use a firearm. ‘God will provide’. Yes: Colt, Smith & Wesson, Glock, Sig Sauer, Rugar, and others.
Matthew 5:38-39, Luke 22:33-36 Striking back in anger is wrong, but always turning the other cheek to those whose way of life is one of abusive violence can also be wrong. A passive response to aggression encourages lawlessness and injustice. DEFEND the weak and the innocent.
It's amazing the methods and lengths (((the media))) will go to in order to try and disarm us. 🤡👹
A Christian school was attacked and 6 members of their community were killed the murderer is being treated as the victim
My book says Defend the innocent !
You a disgusting piece of work.
Have teachers armed (and trained). There's nothing in the Bible preventing self-defense or protecting others from harm.
'...And if you do not have a sword, then sell your cloak and buy one...'
Carry one. Loaded.
Buy some.
A transgender person killed them.
No, they asked “what’s the Christian response to people who think they are trans and those who support them even after they commit atrocities?” They know inanimate objects don’t kill people.
Really? A deranged former student who probably had severe be mental Health issues pulled the trigger of the guns.
Look. We get it. Your readerships abysmal so you need clickbait articles to hopefully remain vaguely relevant.
Protect our schools with guns!!!
*After a mentally ill gender appropriationist targeted and killed 6 Christian people on Monday, Fixed the headline for you.

The Christian thing to do is buy more guns to protect innocent lives.
this Christian wishes that she was there with a gun to stop that monster who decided she needed to kill babies and grandparents.

Assuming WaPo asked “what’s the Christian thing to do about murder and violent activists” question
G t f o o h! THAT IS THE LAST THING THEY HAVE TO THINK ABOUT! 1. Why are Christians targeted? 2. How might we have protected ourselves better? 3. Why is our society encouraging gender transition? What is the Christian thing to do about FAKENEWS MEDIA ?
Nothing, stop trying to twist the story
The real question Christians should ask is what to do about the Washington Post?
Well, the centerpiece of their religion is someone who flipped tables and chased people out of the local temple with a whip. Make of that what you will.
There is no question what to do about guns. If, hypothetically there were, the answer is to buy another gun.
Luke 22:36 'For those that have no sword, go sell your cloak and buy a sword' - Jesus
This is beyond tone deaf, why are you making this about guns? Christians are world wide... A day or two after the army and the police force were waving a flag for the same group responsible for killing Christians... It makes every Christian's ask, why?
Buy more to protect against radical left terrorism
Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
It’s about the media confronted politicians with this question! “What’s the Christian thing to do about guns?” What took you so long to finally ask the question!
NOTHING, because they, like knives, cars, machetes, bombs, poison, nail guns, etc. are simply tools of death which require a HUMAN to actually KILL anyone!! go look at deaths in London where guns are illegal!!!

What to do about a TransTerrorist targeting children based on religion ?
Here’s the Christian thing to do about guns: ban all guns!
Christians pray for forgiveness and help for mentally ill people, not play politics
Isn’t that obvious?
Defend yourself is the Christian response.
Not murder people with them. That’s it.
WOW they used the Christian word-good for them! Especially for the week we are all in! There’s hope for EVERYONE RIGHT UP TILL THE LAST BREATH-YAHWEH PLEASE TAKE MY SOUL!
The better question -- given the actual cause of the anti-Christian massacre -- is what's the Christian thing to do about people overcome by homicidal nihilism?
The reality is, Christians are almost always the perpetrators of these shootings, not the victims.

Don't let trans buy any.
Shall not be infringed. If you want to infringed the 2nd amendment you're an enemy of the United States of America and its constitution.
'After a trans woman killed a bunch of Christians...'
Now that leftists are openly targeting our children for murder we should all disarm. Nah, I don’t think so
100% of mass shootings happen in gun free zones. Gun laws aren't the solution they are the problem.
Buy firearms since Bidet is going to try to make purchasing them very difficult. Also, since violence perpetrated by so-called trans people has been on the increase of late, I'll be MORE on guard when I'm aware of their presence in my locale.
Ah yes, more lectures from the anti-crhist on what Christians should do and think
Buy more guns. If you have skill, make your own.
If shooting children in schools ever becomes a persuasive way of getting communities to question the sanctity of power given by the 2nd Amendment, let's not be surprised if school shootings become the leading cause of death among American children, in the next few years to come!
Buy more.
Sell your Jordan's and buy 2.
The real take away is the HUGE THREAT that the TRANS community represents to the children and the overall society! They need to keep away from schools.
No coverage of this as a potential hate crime? Because the hate was committed by, and directed against, the wrong people for WaPo's narrative.
Christian thing to do would to be to Look at the person who is committing the crimes and not the non breathing object that has no conscious mind to do so. Also let people freely carry and I promise Criminals will think twice when they see the Store or the School is armed.
Christians don’t face a question about what to do with guns, they face a question of what to do with the mental illness of transgenderism. Leave it to WAPO to ignore the real problem.

Maybe we should rewrite the 2nd Amendment to reflect reality: “The right of the people to” sacrifice children on the altar of the 2nd Amendment, “shall not be infringed.”

Carry a pistol on you at all times. Carry a taser, carry a knife. Carry something. Read and practice self defense. Learn what to do in an active shooting situation. Otherwise your just a soft target

What an utterly absurd statement but coming from the Washington Post not surprising.

What kind of question is this Lmaooo?
Pack heat every day?
I live in a Dem/Lib region. If there were a LGBTQ parade with a few protestors, would this conclude my 'community is grappling' with LGBTQ lifestyle... NO, it wouldn't. WaPo is taking liberties at projecting a narrative in Nashville when there's little to no room for one.
The Bible never forbids self-defense, and believers are allowed to defend themselves and their families.1 However, we should never seek revenge or anger and handle all situations with wisdom.2 Luke 22:36 instructs the disciples to buy a sword in order to protect or defend themsel
What is the Christin thing to do about the evil person that used the gun to kill another human being? I am not seeing our judicial system doing nothing.
In honor of this article I’m going to buy another gun
Guns don't kill people do
With tweets like this, the Christian community needs to buy more guns to protect themselves from the violent MSM, democrats and trans community
I don't think that's the question and it certainly isn't controversial.
Does journalism attract evil people or does journalism make people evil?
Christ said: Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. (Luke 22:36; KJV)
Idk what the Christian thing to do about guns might be, but I did hear that some school staff members were armed with guns, so there goes the theory it will help to arm school staff.
EnemyofthePeople
Jesus said in John 15:13. Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. This means to protect one another with your life. A gun is the best way to protect one another. That's what Christians should do.
The 'Christian thing'? Well, the 'Christian thing' would be to give every minister, pastor and priest a truckload of guns to pass out to his flock! I mean, share and share alike! EVERY 'real' Christian simply has to have their gun! It's God's will.
It's all about gun removal and their orcastraighted attacks using mentally ill individuals to perform their attacks on groups that will make headlines and get the people on the side of the government to remove the guns. Nothing more, the hidden Trans Terrorist manifesto shows the…
Why won’t Biden stop the illegals invading our borders with fentanyl ?
Better yet, what will the Christians do about trammy ideology? Isn't if odd how killing for ideology is relevant everywhere in the world except for libs in US?
Use them in defense of Children and our Faith
Ban Democrats from owning guns is the common sense thing to do
keep them out of the hands of the trans terrorists that want them dead

All gun control is unconstitutional, you authoritarians...
How
For starters, you agnostics haven't a clue about conservative Christians.
Easy support securing the schools to make them less of a target. Support the 2nd amendment and tell trans women they are not women but men with delusions
Keep ‘em strapped.
Republican white Amurican Jeezus loves guns.
Depends on which version of the God they believe in. The righteous, empathetic,loving or the perverse, Trump loving, hateful version.
I don’t remember a story in the New Testament where Jesus gives everyone a spear.
another silly question, ja ja ja ja ja ja ans: NOTHING
We could tell them. We, the atheists. 😡
Suddenly the NY Jewish media goes all Christianity on us. 😄 Let's do the Pope first: His Vatican Guard use the same submachine guns as NAVY SEALs.
Arm yourself and stop being a victim. Christ even told his disciples that the time for them to pick up a sword, for their own defense, had come (Luke 22:35-38). We are to love people but we aren't door-matts.
Simple. Meet lethal force with lethal self-defense force. It is the only language the other side will understand.
The Christian thing to do would be only letting men have guns.
Not kill people for sure. Probably reach out to those who are having difficulties and try to give them hope, encouragement and help with the problems they were having.
Get more.
Buy more to protect ourselves against the regime’s trans shock troops.
Guns are not new; what is new is the disrespect that democrats have for life&to kill in the name of politics; Liberals have no respect for peoples rights;or that they have a choice to choose what life the want to live. liberals want to remove choice&decide the life people live
The christian thing is to turn the cheek and pray Yahweh forgive's your foolishness.
Keep them out of the hands of trans activists
Fuck gun control…this is the fault of gun free zones and a dishonest and intentionally divisive media that has tried to destroy our society intentionally. No one has any right to disarm anyone but themselves. To do so is violence.
They’ll forgive and forget. It helps the cognitive dissonance they are wrapped up in. Lock up your weapons folks.
Make sure all adults are armed at all times.
You mean an attack on Christianity ? By a transgender killer !
Ban them 🙏
No. That wasn’t what they were talking about. That’s what you want them to be thinking about. The majority were thinking “how have we allowed Demoncrats to systematically destroy every aspect of Amerocan life, creating a morally decayed and festering pile of crap we live in”
Don’t know. What’s the Islamic, Jewish. Hindu or Buddhist thing to do?
Let's pretend that the shooter wasn't a mentally ill trans person.
Holy shit. You just can't stop blaming the 9yo victims.
All Christians should arm themselves, arm your children too.
The same as cars like when Darrell Brooks killed 6 injuring many more at a Christmas market in Wisconsin.
Is it the Christian thing to do when you only consider your own children and not others?
Arm the schools. Fix the Nation’s Mental Health Crisis. Return the United States to God’s Love.
WWJD? Buy an AR-15 ofc.
First thing would be to do something about trans terrorists.
Use a portion of the Ukraine $ to protect schools.
The Christian thing to do would be to hire armed security and protect these children at all costs.
What about that passage, 'Turn swords into plowshares'?
Thou Shalt Not Kill. Which hasn’t been followed for centuries.
The community faced no such question. Pathetic Post
A country that can’t protect its children is a failed state. No fortitude; others can ⬇️
What did Jesus tell peter when he got a sword and cut off the soldier's ear? He said that he who lives by the sword dies by the sword. This is not controversial if you have remotely read the bible or even have a mustard seed's worth of faith.
Stay strapped.
Actually, the REAL controversial question is why aren't you calling this a religious hate crime?!!
You have to ask what's the Christian thing to do about guns, really?
The Christian thing is arm up, protect yourself and fight evil. TransTerrorism
Epsteins pedo client list please
This is not the question
The christian thing to do is to protect children, no matter what it takes.
My God given rights are not subject to the approval of propagandists and traitors.
The shooter was a transgender. Why are you so eager to say if the shooter is white but hide the fact the shooter was transgender and on multiple medications ?
They will probably go rape a kid and ponder it
Religious conservatives back pro-Gun NRA backed politicians & policies. On the misguided notion that owning guns is their 'God given right!'
Not let crazy people own them
We Christians ✝️ believe in our Bill of Rights.
White Evangelicals = American KKKaliban 👻 👻 👻
Country has always had guns. It’s the constant flow of MSM bullshit. We are breeding these psychos through our polluted culture. I don’t even own a gun and I feel people have the right to.
I support gun control, in fact I support repealing the second amendment. I’ve also voted GOP since 1972. I also know that gun control and ban on assault rifles will not solve the mass shooting problem. Too many guns out there. It’s feel good legislation.
Keep them. What are you expecting?
Aah yes. The people who needed to look in the mirror were the Christians….like wtf
Your answer should be obvious since media has covered other instances of church shootings. Stop trying to deflect.
What was the murderer’s motive? Has that even been reported?
Southern Christians are not troubled by this. If you knew any of them it’s pretty obvious.
Far too many people believe in this country that having a gun is a 'God given right' So that's a problem right there.
Have Shepard's tend and protect their sheep.... We have sheep protecting sheep
This is why The Washington Post can't even give their subscriptions away let alone get $5 dollers a week for there trash paper.
What is worse than christofascists? Christifascists with easy access to guns.
The larger question is what do we do about trans violence. TransTerrorism
Not armed guards or armed teachers. Might as well just put kids in a prison... kids do NOT want this - an environment where everyone is packing, doing gun drills, ducking under desks. This is a bandaid to the actual cause - the ease of getting weapons with no checks. Unhealthy
Oh for pete's sake! 'Christians' are not going to break with the party. All this handwringing means nothing. 'Christians' cemented their bond with the Repubican Party long ago and they are going to stick with the party no matter what. Which is why I put 'Christians' in quotes
Not a mention that the shooter was a crazed teen on hormones that are known to cause aggressive behaviour. We can't talk about the TRANSGENDER elephant in the fucking room that murdered 6 people and three of them children.
Make sure they are reloaded...
This is a rhetorical oxymoron coming from a DemLibCommieNazi party con artist thug MSM propagandists!! The answer to the real question is...... Better Mental Healthcare Management!!!
Lying Press demonstrates they are the enemy of the people once again. Go blow Master Bezos, you mouthpiece.
Christians should arm themselves, never again throwing them to the lions
It shouldn’t be in the least bit controversial😳
Keep them away from deranged and violent psychopaths, for sure.
Defending your life is the Christian thing to do. God Save America 🆘🇺🇸🙏
Go buy one.
Like now it’s a problem because it impacts you personally? 😡
Typically, most Christian gun owners just practice their 2A rights like everyone else.
Is this a real question, like, really for real?
Buy them
'Venda sua túnica e compre uma espada'
Acquire them and use them to lawfully defend yourself.
Controversial is doing way way way too much work in that header
😭 people shouldn't get guns easily and students shouldn't allow too carry guns or knife in school 😭 feel sad for those who lost their lifes
Easy, they need to advocate for gun laws to prevent this from happening again.
The Christian thing to do is arm yourself and prepare for the war that literally .7% of the population has come out and waged against them. The past 5 shootings have been perpetrated by the trans community. The past 10 years of mass shootings have been perpetrated by liberals.
That's what you think the takeaway is?
Wasn't 'thoughts and prayers' supposed to be all it took? Maybe they're not doing enough of that. They should pray harder.
Guns didn’t kill the victims a deranged confused transgender did, the last four shootings Co springs, Aberdeen, Denver and Nashville were all done by persons claiming to be transgenders, this is a mental health problem not a gun problem.
Here's a better question. What is the Christian thing to do about body mutilation of little kids in the name of Gender identity? Bible says God Created MAN & WOMAN. No mention of Transgender.
Place armed vets in the school to protect them, like we do our lousy politicians.
The founding fathers answered that question a long time ago. The 2nd Amendment is the defender of all other rights, including right to life. Defend the innocent with armed defenders. Allow teachers to carry if they wish, not force them. Offer free training & maybe even help with…
If you don’t have a sword sell your cloak Pretty simple WEAPONS FOR SELF DEFENSE ARE GODLY to STOP EVIL
The Christian thing would be to use any available means to protect yourself from a sickness that wishes to destroy it.
You can reduce the majority of gun crime and violence by enforcing existing laws, pushing for meaningful sentencing, providing prison based treatment & recidivism reduction programs, as well as reintegration pathways vs disarming law abiding citizens & gutting the 2nd Amendment
Are you fucking serious?
My God. What has religion got to with Guns?
What's the 'Christian Thing' to do about abortion?
Buy more ammo.
Christians in America today are bullies and fascists. They have totally turned me off from religion and i will never allow my beautiful young twins to step foot in a church ever. The bible is the only book that should be banned. Republicans bigotry caused this tragedy.
Subtext; they brought this on themselves. Another garbage article from WaPo.
I don’t give a flying f about what is the “Christian” way to do anything. We are not a theocracy, yet. The US gun fetish and death toll is uniquely ours, sadly.
To not let violent criminals shoot people with them
True Christians would work for gun control. Christ did not carry an AR-15.
Don't let Freaks buy guns.
I know what NOT to do:
So I guess the issue isn't taking god out of schools.
Wait, I thought the gun battle was questioning those with mental illness, not Christian values. gtfoh
A trans person did this. But your woke government continues to push the trans agenda, declaring a national trans day and saying that trans ppl are under some sort of threat. What a disgusting administration
I don’t think that is a tough question. The problem is most “Christians” are Republicans first.
Guns? What’s a school to do about violent cross dressers is a better question!
Another way of victim blaming: what are rape victims going to about short skirts?
Clearly disarm and let leftist fascism rule the country.
Secure schools like other govt buildings. Stop leaving schools as soft targets
“Christian” or fascist?
What governments do to Christians. 2A
Ayychley New talking point in order to get Christians to give up their guns just dropped.
What happened has nothing to do with guns. Could have used knives or other weapons. The problem was with mental illness. That's the problem with all school homicides. Mentally healthy people don't want to murder people. Gun control is ignoring the root of the problem.
TulsaTeresa A Christian should have nothing to do with violence toward others. Guns can be a useful tool in rural areas, but a person carrying firearms to use against others is not Scripturally sound. Non-violence was an key early Christian principle.
Guns is also what stopped more from dying. Its not the tool. Its how its used.
Evil globalist demoncrats and Rinos want to keep schools vulnerable “soft targets” so they can grab your guns JUST BEFORE they finish installing global surveillance State and remove all of your GOD given rights! Wake up sheep!
This school is a Presbyterian private school...not fundamentalist Christian (gun nuts).
Lk 22:36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.
Doesn’t have a blue check mark.. not a verified account.. thread carefully 😂😂😂😂😂
What’s the Christian thing to do about mental illness. Guns are not the problem. The people pulling the trigger on the guns are the problem. Just like it’s not a car’s problem it’s a drunk drivers problem.
We’ll according to the Christian-Fascist community… . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . MORE GUNS . . . . . . . . . . . . .
MORE GUNS!! 'MERICA!! KILL ANYONE TRYING TO KILL INNOCENT CHILDREN/ADULTS
I would really like to know where was the Christian love for the woman the shooter that targeted the school that she had gone to as a teenager. I'm guessing she was shown a lot of Christian hate as a student. How did that school help make her into a monster.
StopChristianGenocide
Questions never pondered by WaPo after innumerable incidents of illegal immigrants killing US citizens.
Idk seems like a good idea that wouldn't want to disarm themselves in case more mentally ill people try to come and kill them.
All government buildings have security- WHY DON’T ALL SCHOOLS? You can’t fix evil 👿
So a disturbed terrorist kills six Christians and you want to turn this around into Christians dealing with private gun ownership?
Covenant wasn't Hale's first choice, she went there explicitly because it didn't have armed security. For those looking for the WWJD, read Luke.
In a piece about this place’s Christian culture and how it’s affected by this tragedy, it’s kind of conspicuous that there no mention of the fact that the murderer came from the community, attended that very school, in fact. Why is that?
“Let the one whom has no sword sell his cloak and buy one,” Jesus said to his disciples during their last meal together before Jesus was arrested and executed. The statement is recorded in Luke 22, it must have been a head turner, both to his disciples & early gospel listeners
For American fundigelicals, their guns are their gods. The Bible is only a tool to justify whatever shit it is they believe in.
You misspelled trans
So Christians are not allowed the chance to defend themselves against criminals?
Has the gun been arrested ?
Controversial question? Give me a break. If they don’t know right from wrong, there’s no hope.
We will protect our children from trans people by any means necessary
Acquire them and defend your religious freedoms
Trans rights over everyone else’s Constitutional rights? That is the leftist position
How are attempts to reduce deaths controversial? When did Christianity become synonymous with gun-ownership, hate, and bigotry? Republican “Christians” couldn’t be more antithetical to Christ’s teachings.
It’s not a Christian thing. It’s this thing called the 1st and 2nd amendment. We are a constitutional republic stop trying to take advantage of peoples feelings.
Protect your children! Armed guards!
Luke 22:36
Gun violence will never end, this is our society!
What's the Christians thing to do about the pronoun people you mean.
Here’s another trans terrorist:
Mass trans shooter
In my translations of the New Testament, Jesus preached a radical inclusivity, even including the outcasts of his culture, and a radical non-violent resistance to the Roman Empire. I don't know who the gun-worshipping Christians follow, but it's not my guy.
And the Lord said unto them. 'When some one shoots up a school just turn the other cheek if they used a firearm'
Christians aren't grappling.
What the hell is wrong with you people?
Reading what WaPo readers on Twitter think of Christianity and guns is always amusing and head-shakin'
What idols are being worshiped that could lead to ruin and death?
You’re sick.
WAPO if you don't know the answer to that question, you a very big part of the problem we are seeing. Just look at what the Forefathers drew up in the Constitution, unless you're reaching out to the weirdos for the CCP.
Render to Caesar what is Caesar's. Follow the law.
You’re implying they are actually “Christian” and not “Christofascist.”
No this isn’t the question the question is why didn’t anyone care ? Oh I know the shooter was the victim cause she’s trans no one cares cause they are Christians .. we still feel the same about our guns our question is why are u making the killer a victim ?
Believe me, there are more important controversial questions from them.
I mean yeah the Bible explicitly declares Americans have a right to the 2A so I get it
Christian thing to do is obey laws, protect family, and protect freedoms / rights.
Arm yourselves. That way, when every little thing makes you feel threatened, you can kill them. Isn't that what Jesus said to do? 'Always be the victim. Guns will save you.' Pretty sure that's biblical.
You meant “fondles guns.”
You're sick
Turn them into plowshares.
Keep in mind - the shooter was raised Christian if they were an ex student . Complicated .
Uh a mentally unstable 28 yr old woman ♀️👠 killed these innocent people. Your question should be why was this woman ♀️👠 mentally unstable and what medication she was on.
I heard a radio show yesterday where they were interviewing Christian leaders telling people to pray. Just made me feel ill thinking how they are throwing these folks to the wolves.
ITT: The side who was responsible for the current mass shooting tries to convince the general populace to give up their only means of defending themselves against such threats
Just like Rs won’t stand against fascist behavior, religion won’t either. Why? They don’t want to lose members bc it will affect power & money. What will Rs/religious leaders do if they’re not in power? Maybe listen to people & realize they have more to gain by moving forward🤷♀️
Have them.
The shooting was a tragedy. The reason our founding fathers i wanted citizens to have guns they would boost our militia and they would also be able to fight the militia should the government become corrupt. Do you think our present government is honest with you? I do not.
Buy more!
Blaming the victim is fine when the victims are Christians.
The real question is: what to do about the mental health crisis leading people to believe they can become the other gender? But yall ain't ready for that
You demons have already lost 😂
Are you sure those people are true followers of the Christ?
We decide that marginalizing certain groups is the “christian” thing to do. Then we decide every human has the constitutional right to an easy way to take any life the want. Then we can’t figure out why that marginalized group takes lives. We gave them the motive and the method.
That’s a good place to start a conversation
A female pretending to be a male murdered innocents. Arm yourselves. Never give in to those living a life of pretend. They want you dead and they want your children indoctrinated. And clearly so does The Washington Post and all other State Media.
Ban
Keep shooting their children obviously. It is America.
The Christian thing to do is to arm yourself for defense
According to the Bible as long as you are doing it for 'the God' it is perfectly fine. From Moses to David and everyone in between they have millions under their belts. If you add the Roman Catholic crusades then it's near a billion.
Mental Health Registry.
Find anything in the Bible that calls for Christians to support assault weapons
Religion is trash.
Love something as much as journalists love troon mass murderers.
Protect my family from evil. MockingbirdMedia MKUltra
What a stupid take
Jesus gave the command to Peter: PUT down your sword! He that liveth by the sword, dies by it. Christians are to obey Christ not the NRA.
After a few days, the answer from them will be, “buy more.”
Keep them away from trans people
Tough one. Usually, southern Christian sects accept gods will and forgive the perpetrator when they want to ignore a problem like gun violence. But the sexuality of the killer has then soul searching whether to go Old Testament or New.
The Christian thing to do is to keep and bear arms and maintain proper vigilance, clearly. Seek Canadian healthcare, scum.
Stop taking for granted we used to live in a polite society. Now we have an entire community defending a killer and blaming the victims. Arm up. Stay armed.
Why are there so many trans mass murderers now, and no NRA member mass murderers?
The Christian thing to do is a 'eye for a eye'. So we need to catch up.
