The people who were trapped in the buildings and airplanes had no choice to be where they were at those moments. Many people lost their loved ones that day and some people couldn't probably control what they were doing during their last moments of life. God knows what was in the hearts of every one of the victims and understands every situation. It is not up to us to speculate. God bless- LGLG [/quote] I agree, what their intentions were shouldn't be questioned. The only thing we have right to state is how we would have acted in such a situation.
Mary-Kathryn Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 In the end, there is no speculation. [b]ALL[/b] death certificates from that day listed the cause of death as homocide.
Winchester Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 [quote name='StThomasMore' post='1085381' date='Oct 6 2006, 12:01 AM'] Um no... have u? [/quote] [quote name='Jasvon' post='1085492' date='Oct 6 2006, 10:44 AM'] Budge confuses the written Word of God that testifies of Jesus Christ (John 5:39) with the LIVING Word, Jesus Christ Himself. God bless you [/quote] Yes. Speculation over what you would do, or especially what others did, is moot until you do. It's good to have a plan. You should plan to remain calm and try to find a way out. But that calmness only lasts so long. To be culpable for a sin, you must exercise free choice, and I would be very hesitant to ascribe that to any but a professional. The heat put off by a seriously involved area, is incredible. It's not like getting close to your fireplace or bbq grill. It's not like standing outside and watching a house burn.
Franimus Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 I'd try the stairs... but if completely blocked, try to climb out the window and down the building.. maybe there's a pipe right outside like in movies? Jumping would have more of a chance of survival if you had no way of going through the flames
Birgitta Noel Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 Umm, I'm sorry, can we stop this discussion? Knowing someone lost in the WTC I find this topic/poll offensive, rude, and uncalled for. (Not all of the responses, just the general poll etc. STMs intent may not have been to offend as I believe he is young and perhaps doesn't realize the impact the way in which one asks a question can have, but regardless. . .) Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and may perpetual Light shine upon them.
homeschoolmom Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 Yep. I think we've pretty much discussed this topic beyond what is tasteful or necessary. Before I close it, I would like to offer a prayer for those who died in that tragedy, my heartfelt thanks to those in the military and the police and firefighters who risk their lives every day to keep us safe. Thank you and God bless.
