Boat of love? I'm such a dork.

I'm going to be absolutely sick.
Today was the Casey Anthony verdict.
After three years of this battle she was found not guilty.
I have not heard one person say they agreed.
What I have heard are judgments on her, on her person, on her lifestyle. From "Christian" people
It makes me sick.
Not ONE of them knows the full story. Because no one knows.
But they sit on their high horse and call her a murdering slut.
What kind of person is that?
Ive seen tweets like this one:

"Dear Casey Anthony, the judge may not know the complete story, but God does. :) So, don't think you've gotten away jusstt yet"

They speak like they know what God thinks of her.
They speak like they know what goes on in that woman's mind.
What they don't speak is love.

But God loves Casey . Unconditionally. As much as he loves each one of us.
So you might say, I love her but what she did was wrong.
First, don't lie, because you could never speak so hatefully of one you care even the slightest bit for.
Second, we are all sinners. But God tells us that hating is like murdering.
So if you really believe Casey murdered her child and hate her for it, then think twice before you call God's wrath on her, because you may find yourself blindly in the same boat as she.

But that's just it.
We are ALL in one big boat.
One big sinner's boat
Casey Anthony may be standing right next to you on the boat.
We're sailing in an ocean of God's love though,
Surrounded by his grace.

So what kind of Christian are you?
If I didn't know God and his love,
Then I wouldn't want to be any part of this thing you call "Christianity"
I wouldn’t want to be a part of that judging, hating, vile group of people.
Is that what you want outsiders to think?
We are on the earth to spread God's love.
You should be ashamed.

Hate me for speaking the truth.
God said the world will despise me.
But it doesn’t matter.
I would rather be hated by every person of this world
Than be associated as a part of them.

Okay, so now that I have the DRAMATIC emotions out of the wayy..
Of course I don’t mean everybody..
But you know if I mean you.
Anyway.. It really doesn't make sense when you think about it.
You are speaking as if you don't trust god.
Don't you know how big he is?
Bigger than anything in this world.
God is in control of this situation
And he knows SO MUCH MORE THAN US.
He knows Casey's heart and mind.
So why do you feel like your opinion is necessary?
It means nothing.
Nothing.
You are just disgracing god's name.
So how about a little trust?

And maybe some decency?
