Au Contraire, Sean Hannity…
Here’s a sad irony for you: I picked up today’s USA Today, and on the cover, top right corner, is a picture of a young lady, with the caption that said something like (I don’t have it in front of me), “Joyful in London”, the reference being to London’s being selected to host the 2012 Olympic games. What a difference a day makes…
But I must comment on Sean Hannity’s remarks regarding the cowardly bombings in the subway and the bus. Sean said today words to the effect that “the people who did this, they’re not human beings”. Yes they were, Sean, yes they were, human beings with flesh and blood just like the rest of us. Latent in each of us is the capacity for horrible evil, and we deceive ourselves to think otherwise. I can’t fathom what must be going through one of these people’s minds, but I do know that the consequences for believing lies can be tragic; this is what these people did, believed the lies of the enemy of our souls, and it cost them their lives and souls, as well as the lives of many innocent people. Barbaric, inhumane, cowardly; all these words only scratch the surface. But evil resides in the human heart—and in that respect, these people were all too human, Sean, all too human.
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it? (Jer. 17:9, KJV)

You know…I was thinking the same exact thing while I was listening to Sean. But it’s hard to accept the fact that terrorists are human beings. But we are capable of anything…that’s why we need Christ. Love your blog!
