Christianism vs Christianity

More

The poignancy of this is pretty profound:

Attorney Dan Monnat said Tiller was shot as he served as an usher during morning services at Reformation Lutheran Church. Monnat said Tiller's wife, Jeanne, was in the choir at the time of the shooting.

To assassinate someone is evil enough; to do it in a church service, as his wife looks on is staggering. And the terrorist is still at large:

Capt. Brent Allred said Wichita police were looking for a gunman who fled in a 1993 light blue Ford Taurus registered in the Kansas City suburb of Merriam, Kan.

Gateway Pundit notes:

Police were looking for a blue Ford Taurus with a K-State vanity plate, license number 225 BAB. Police described him as a white male in his 50's or 60's, 6'1," 220 lbs, wearing a white shirt and dark pants. The car is reportedly registered out of Merriam, Kansas a suburb just to the southeast of Kansas City, Kan.

Robert Stacy McCain, about as far right as one can get, is appalled:



Sometimes, when the stubborn wickedness of a people offends God, the Almighty witholds His divine protection, permitting those sinners to have their own way, following the road to destruction so that they are subjected to evil rulers and unjust laws. Never, however, does the wise and faithful Christian resort to the kind of lawlessness practiced with such cruelty today in Kansas.
