I work with a bunch of scientists who literally hate Christianity. Some of these guys think they are athiests. I hate to break it to them that atheism doesn't exist because they would have to know every single aspect in the universe to prove God doesn't exist. That just simply cannot be done by a limited human being. Anyways, some coworkers are agnostic, some are Hindu, and some I just don't have a clue about. Pray for these lost souls.
On Monday, I overheard two coworkers talking about religion. In fact, they were talking about Christianity. I wanted to join their conversation so badly. They would look at me when they were speaking because they know I am a Christian, but they wouldn't let me in their conversation. They would look away and quiet down when I walked by. That's not important anyways. What is important is their topic. Their topic was on why it is o.k. to kill conservative Christians. I don't remember much of what they said, but I do remember that. I was infuriated at their evil and hatred, but at the same time I was elated because the Lord promised that these things would come. I could see God upholding his promises.
That being said, a recent college graduate at the University of North Carolina had these same feelings towards the United States and Christianity. He had hatred. Read the following article to see how much animosity he had. This is unbelievable.
The driver of an SUV that plowed into a group of pedestrians at UNC-Chapel Hill on Friday told police it was retribution for the treatment of Muslims around the world, according to ABC News.
It happened around noon Friday in front of Lenoir Hall on the campus, in a common area known as the Pit. Paramedics took six people to UNC Hospitals. Five had been released by Friday evening and the sixth was not expected to be admitted.
Officials say none of the people were seriously injured. Three refused treatment at the scene.
Chapel Hill police say they arrested the suspect, Mohammed Reza Taheriazar, 23, of Chapel Hill, shortly after the incident. Several witnesses were able to give police the rented Jeep Cherokee's license plate number.
Police said they would charge Taheriazar, a psychology major who graduated from UNC last semester, with several counts of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill.
...Sources say Taheriazar told police he was seeking retribution for the treatment of Muslims around the world, according to ABC News justice correspondent Pierre Thomas. Taheriazar apparently told police he tried to rent the biggest SUV he could find to use in the attack.
By Friday afternoon, a police SWAT team had surrounded a Carrboro apartment complex where Taheriazar reportedly lived.
Taheriazar is a native of Iran and a December 2005 UNC graduate, according to the
Raleigh News and Observer.

Misleading lead sentence from ABC11: "The driver of an SUV that plowed into a group of pedestrians at UNC..."
Word "pedestrians" suggests that this event happened near traffic. Completely misleading.
"Pit" is sunken bricked area where students congregate. It is closely surrounded by buildings. There is no adjacent traffic. It can be accessed only via very small service access and not without carefully navigating to the pit area. There is noteven the remotest possibility that this was anything other than a deliberate vehicular assault. The students were not "pedestrians;" they were merelystudents at a popular campus gathering spot, almost a courtyard.
America get ready. The persecutions and the violence that is spread throughout the rest of the world is coming here more and more each day. Brethren, are you ready to stand for the Gospel?
