I Know Christian Jim has been Awol just a quick note on Heath Ledger

I just wanted to say a few things about the tragic death of Heath Ledger. First there has been quite a bit of speculation about what may have caused his death, to me it all seems to be just that speculation and ultimately is none of the publics business. The so called "news" outlets seem to want to drag him through the mud and say this or that glorying in the untimely death of a talented young man. I myself have seen very few of the movies he starred in, the main one I recall being the patriot.

None of these things really matter, it comes down to this Heath Ledger died young, his daughter is left fatherless and no matter what the cause it is a tragedy. I myself have done the one thing that matters instead of speculating or judging I have prayed that our Lord will watch over his family and friends through this most difficult of trials, I ask that anyone reading this be compelled to do the same.

One more thing I pray that someone puts a stop to the Westboro Baptist Church who have stated there intentions to protest Ledgers funeral. I try not to judge and I try to be forgiving however the nutcases of the Westboro Baptist Church are truly an abomination. The hate spewed by these lunatics is about as foul as it gets. The worst part is they see nothing wrong with it. They claim to be Christian.

It is sad that an observer might lump them in with true Christians whose faith in Jesus Christ has saved us from our sin. We know we are all sinners and that there is only one who walked the earth who was perfect. Therefore the only one who may judge is our most Blessed and Heavenly Father. So even though it pains me a bit I pray for Westboro Baptist Church too. Only God can battle the evil that is deep in the souls of these vile people.

I will not put a link to the WBC website on my blog I refuse to be linked to them. If you don't know about them they are the people who protest soldiers funerals and claim that "God hates fags" a statement that disgusts me to even type here. Maybe I shouldn't but, just to clarify my point of view on this ,not that it means anything, I feel homosexuals are no more or less sinners than anyone else, we are all sinners and that is between as and the Lord. Thanks to the sacrifice made by Jesus we all have a shot at Heaven.

In closing I would just like to thank you for reading and thank God for all the blessings in my life and ask the Lord to keep Heath Ledger's family safe in his Almighty hands and to help them weather this storm.
