I didn't ask for an apology. This is a forum... not the Care Bears Reunion Special. Everything isn't shiny and happy ally the time! It isn't about feelings, it is about opinions.
I am not questioning your Chrisitianity... I just said it didn't seem right. Don't get upset.

(In my elder-at-the-pulpit-voice) Let those with ears hear....
Actually iceandivy, Honeykiss1974 is within biblical rights to "rejoice". Proverbs 11:10 puts it down clearly without leaving anything to question.
In reading Proverbs 11:10 (notice how I'm not quoting it because I want you all to go search the WORD for yourself), the word "wicked" is taken from the Hebrew word "rasha" which means ...one who is morally wrong and does morally wrong to others.
So, although it may seem strange or unkind in the carnal sense to rejoice when those who have done wicked things to others leave this earth--it is not strange for the righteous (not perfect....Righteous), to rejoice! Me, personally, I just hope that in his life before his final breath here, that he repented for the things he did to African Americans and for the residue it left and I hope he had a personal relationship with the LORD JESUS CHRIST.
Proverbs 11:10--That's the WORD...I didn't make it up, it's in your bible. Speaking of the WORD (I'm hijacking this thread as I step down from the pulpit), do any of you watch The Word Network? If you do, what's your favorite program, or least favorite...and can someone tell me (if you watch Dr. Shine's and Dee-Dee's Ministry) what is Dr. Shine calling the man at the podium who reads the WORD...is his name "dudda" or "dude". I'm sitting here trippin' trying to figure out what is he calling ole' boy.
