Since when has a building had higher worth than a human life?

I ask this question becasue on the radio this afternoon, I heard a report that the Heidelberg Presbyterian Church burnt down over night. This is a sad thing, particularly given that it is the second time that it has happened in fifteen years. But then the radio played an interview with one of the parishioners. He said…

“I received a call early in the morning and immediately I thought somebody has died. When I answered the phone the news was even worse. the church had burnt down…”

WHAT?!!

With comments like that, it’s no wonder that people see the church people as out of touch with all reality. I hope my family are never stuck in a building on fire with this guy around!

If this is the attitude of other churches in Melbourne, may God burn them all to the ground this night.

End of rant.
