Quote:Angolan media say 10 people, including four children, have died in a stampede during a religious gathering at a sports stadium in Luanda, the Angolan capital.

Why did you allow these people of yours to be trampled to death for your glory? Did they fuck up somehow? Were the children as guilty as the adults? Why do you have to be such a prick all the time?

If the people were Christian, they went to Heaven and are now in a better place so we shouldn't feel sorry for them.

If not, they just went to Hell a bit ahead of schedule. Not a big deal considering how long 50 some odd years is in comparison to eternity and the lost were probably predestined to be lost anyway.

So hey, when you believe that death is only a path to some eternal destination, likely predestined anyway, you can trivialize a tragedy like this one. It's only Hellbound heathen trash like you that get all bent out of shape over death and have silly ideas like "isn't that tragic". As if human life should mean anything.

EDIT: Boy, this post was pretty Gothic but you have to admit, if you really do believe and take that belief to its logical conclusion, it's a pretty small step to completely trivialize our existence here in the real world.
