I know that if this had happened to me at the height of my christianity, I'm positive I would have said yes. Yes,I was actually eager to die for god. It's not as heroic as it might seem though, it partly stemmed from fear that ever denying god would condemm me to hell. I would have rather risked getting shot.

 

On a side note, I hate it when christians ignore the fact that things like are false because it suits them. Selective hearing anyone? The christian band Flyleaf has a song about it called 'Cassie'. It pretty much glorifies them for being martyrs yet it never happened.

Even if it DID, happen the way Christians say, there are still  problems I have with those parameters.

Those two sickos shot and killed 12 other and wounded dozens others people and DID NOT ask everyone they shot if they believed in God (even if we were to assume those two unfortunate girls were asked), so the shooting was not about belief in Jesus, the students that got shot were merely targets of convenience. They shooters were merely showing off. They would have shot anyone they didn't like and the beliefs of the victims wouldn't have mattered.

Not to mention, by the believer's parameters, IF, as they say, God was watching, why allow it to happen if you know you can stop it?

If this all powerful being can stop one person from being a victim of criminal murder, why not be consistent and save all the students?

If oil flowed like deity claims gas would cost 10 cents a gallon.
