After Vegas Massacre, Franklin Graham Points Out The 1 ‘Common Thread' No One's Talking About
2017-10-08
[Facebook] Many people don’t understand what would be in a person’s heart to spray bullets into a crowd to kill and wound as many as he can. Or what’s in the heart of a person who drives his car across a bridge in London and into a crowd of people, get out with a knife, and stab innocent people and police officers. Or what’s in the heart of a person who would take a knife and cut off the head of another human being. Many don’t understand what’s in the heart of a person who’s a senior attorney for CBS and says she has "no sympathy" for those killed or wounded in Las Vegas simply because people who listen to country music might be Republicans.

The common thread that runs through the heart of each of these is evil.

#6  The reason they can't find a motivation is he didn't have one, except saving his own skin.

He was money laundering and his problem gambling put him in debt to very bad people. Let's say drug smugglers with Middle East connections. They sold his services to ISIS or similar to recoup what they were owed by Paddock, and he was told do this or meet a very unpleasant end. Being something of a sociopath made it easier for him.

#5  BottomRev, really? I can show you a face and via ignorance you couldn't tell me whether that person is good or evil. You a primary part of the problem with zero solutions.

#4  Coward. Graham pulled his punch. The common thread is Salafi or Shia Jihad, or fear of same. Franklin knows that. Evil has a face, always and anywhere it surfaces. It concretizes, has a face and a name that can be clearly understood and treated. Graham is an incompetent theologian.

#3  Progressive don't like to be faced with black and white, good and evil, etc, they want to live in a grey area of non-absolutes, of situational ethics. It must have been something he ate, a medication, or a gambling debt.

#1  The problem is that one community treats 'evil' as a mental illness in an attempt to wash its hands of the hate and envy it spews 24/7.
