And it is more than obvious you do not like that verdict!

YOU have a serious problem.
Interesting to note he was found not guilty, but that doesn't mean he was found innocent. My personal theory since we're on the subject, I think he shot Trayvon because he was getting his behind kicked. A fight he started by following him. There was enough evidence to say because of his actions, it lead to Trayvon's death. Being guilty of manslaughter. Yet he was found not guilty, and I don't argue the verdict.


While in general its true God is the ultimate judge, I find in general anyone who states this are people of questionable character. You never heard someone like mother Teresa saying, "Only God can judge me!"

Hmmm It sounds good; Lets check it out eh?

“I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I know that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will not ask, 'How many good things have you done in your life?' rather he will ask, 'How much love did you put into what you did?”
― Mother Teresa

you were saying ??

Not in the same spirit at all. (On a side note, concerning Teresa's beliefs and mine, I'm sure they are a little different) This is speaking of God's judging our works, not a direct statement of a "Only God can judge me!" type of attitude. This attitude implies that no one else can judge their actions, no matter what it looks like. Teresa's not personalizing it, notice how in the quote she says "when we die" and "for God to judge us".

I suppose you are correct.

We all get judged; either at the Bema seat of Christ or in the Great White Throne Judgment.

Isn't what Zimmerman said basically the line of every crazy that's committed some horrid crime - that no man is worthy to judge him?

If that clown doesn't kill somebody else for some poor reason in the next 5 years, I'll be shocked.

I agree. Jail house Christians turn my stomach...Oh wait, Zimmerman isn't in an actual jail. But he should be.

So as long as he loved killing Trayvon, then it's okay?!

You are also quoting a woman who had lost her faith at least 10 years before she died. She carried on her work to 'save face'.

Another question, do you think she was a saint?

Oh, George Zimmerman killed Trayvon Martin. The fact you can't comprehend this is an example of you being the one with a problem, not me. He was not guilty of murder, but he is still a killer, and one you accept.

What exactly makes you so great that people would rather be around you? I do not condone his actions, but your comments come off as if you have done nothing wrong. There are all types of people in heaven that have committed all types of acts that they are more than likely regretful of doing, but if you have an issue with that, how would you feel if people felt the same about you?

I won't kill anybody! Surely that makes me better company!

Unless you have a fetish for killers, then Zimmerman is your man
