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

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.

Once again, why are so many praying to a supposedly omniscient entity
who lets little children die/suffer from dread diseases and who allows
nine decent people to be shot down at their house of worship? Because
they think there is an afterlife, a concept sold to them by other men
for thousands of years?

Is that all there is?

No, it's much more than that. Here's a pretty comprehensive link that gives good answers, and I really doubt if you'll read it, but I'll post it anyhow.

'Hate's not in me'

Law enforcement officials have said Dylann Roof of Lexington, South Carolina, admitted to shooting and killing the people he'd sat with for Bible study. He told investigators he did it to start a race war, according to one of the officials.

On Friday, Roof appeared at a bond hearing. Families of the victims addressed him and said they forgave him.

"I'm reminded of some news media persons that wondered why the nine families all spoke of forgiveness and didn't have malice in their heart," Goff said during the Sunday service. "It's that the nine families got it," he said, reminding worshipers that members' unwavering faith in God shows how to "love our neighbors as we love ourselves."

These are nothing more than rationalizations to spread and perpetuate
religious belief and explain away why "god" doesn't intervene. When most
of the world was living in abject poverty, along comes religion to make
the suffering feel better because after their certain death, there was
another life of plenty.

Bull****.

Hey, if people want to take solace in mythology and in passages written
long ago by *men* to help promulgate a religion, that's just fine, so
long as those myths and "rules" don't find their way into controlling
access to health care and all the hundreds of other areas in which "the
religious" want to impact on life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
