The amazing thing about his Eulogy was that he touched on so many things race, gun control, religion, GRACE, poverty, and simple human kindness.

It really is a shame imo how he has been disparaged over the years and the insults he has had to put up with from the nutcases on the right.

F6: IMO, this says it all about him and the words we should all live by. And by the way I am a "Christian" man.

"He embodied the idea that our Christian faith demands deeds and not just words; that the “sweet hour of prayer” actually lasts the whole week long -- (applause) -- that to put our faith in action is more than individual salvation, it's about our collective salvation; that to feed the hungry and clothe the naked and house the homeless is not just a call for isolated charity but the imperative of a just society."

Fire at Black Church in Ga. Ruled Arson
In the second such occurrence this week, fire investigators suspect an arsonist behind the blaze that claimed a black church in Macon, Ga.
June 26 2015
For the second time this week, a black church has reportedly been set on fire, this time in Georgia, The Telegraph reports [ http://www.macon.com/2015/06/25/3814656_macon-church-fire-ruled-arson.html ].
According to the report, arson investigators are still awaiting test results from the scene of the fire at God’s Power Church of Christ in Macon, Ga. However, fire Sgt. Ben Gleaton told the news site that other factors have made Macon-Bibb County firefighters suspect arson. The report notes that the front door of the church was wired shut and locked when firefighters arrived at the scene, but a side door was unlocked.
The fire started Tuesday morning at the predominantly black church—the day before a fire at a black church in North Carolina [ http://www.theroot.com/articles/news/2015/06/fire_at_black_north_carolina_church_ruled_arson.html ], which is also suspected to be the work of an arsonist.
