I don't believe biblical verse is solace for the families of the nine
decent citizens who were murdered by a white racist.


OOps, that's where you're wrong. Their faith is (and the biblical verse that goes along with it) is exactly what comforts them.



But, some will never understand. And for those who wish to question, that verse I posted is of of the most read at Christian funerals.


BTW, notice no rioters?

"In a remarkable display of joy, sorrow and trust, worshippers at Emanuel AME Church on Sunday morning honored slain parishioners by celebrating the power of faith and community...The service drew more than 1,000 people to the Calhoun Street sanctuary, though the building could accommodate only about 800. The street in front of the church, closed by police, became for the morning a sacred space where people enduring another hot Charleston day added their voices to the singing inside and joined hands in prayer in a grand show of solidarity.

When a woman sang "Jesus Said You Can Lean on Me," joined by a young trumpet player and the church choir, the building shook. Worshipers clapped and danced and cried. It was hard to ignore the message: strength comes in numbers and healing begins in the cradle of community.
