Reply #121: And maybe next time he will show up with an AK47 based upon [View All]

the "lesson that he learned".

I have an idea that will doubtlessly crack you up because it will seem so silly.

Obviously, the church members outnumbered the burglars. After the burglar climbed through the window, what would likely have happened had they suddenly turned on the lights? He would have probably fled out of the window. What lesson would he have learned? That the church members were on the look out for burglars and that he had better not rob them any more. Isn't that what they wanted him to learn? If, on the other hand, he had been armed and willing to use it, bad things There plan to tie subdue him and tie him up was an unnecessary and for them, a needless risk.

Or, if the burglar did not flee immediately, what if the good Christians ask him what his intentions were? Would he have told them that he had intended to rob the church and proceeded to do so if not stopped?
