In Aurora, the Clergy of ‘faith’ seek answers

Mitch Hamilton is a pastor of the Mississippi Avenue Baptist Church.  The church is located near the theater of the shooting that killed 12 and wounded dozens during the midnight screening of Batman.

He is not sure if any of his church members are among the dead.

Other clergy across the city of Aurora are struggling to respond to the tragedy.

“It’s impossible to be prepared for actions that reek of such evil… It’s not as if any of us have answers… Evil is in our midst…” said Rabbi Richard Rheins of Temple Sinai in the city of Denver, Colorado.

Another Rabbi, Joe Black from Temple Emanuel understands that his congregation will be looking for answers.  “I’ve been a rabbi for 25 years, and I know that I don’t have any answers. And if anybody says they do, I’m concerned,”

  1. 25 years of being a Rabbi, and you don’t have a word from God or an answer to why things like this happen! No wonder the youth hate religion, it is all a show! Why make a show of going to Sunday mass if you and the priest you submit to cant hear from God and worse yet don’t believe you can hear from God.
