Gun Violence and Gospel Values Redux, A word from your Presbytery

I like to do one more session on Gun Violence and Gospel Values, the document from your PCUSA General Assembly. I will have met with the Holston Presbytery''s subcommittee on Gun Violence and I'd like to give a report. Here's a question to think about before hand. The GV2 document notes the following "Due to the recent expanded provisions in concealed carry laws in many states that
now allow guns to be carried openly, including into houses of worship, we recommend that churches and other entities prominently display signs that prohibit carrying guns onto their property." Is this a good idea for us?

Please join us. We'll be delighted to see you.

No specific program

We don't have a specific topic planned for Sunday, but if you show up, there'll be some interesting conversation. Please join us.

Australia vs USA: Gun control and effective politicians..

In the face of congress' failure to enact even the most tepid forms of gun control, John Oliver (of the Daily Show) went to Australia to interview politicians who passed effective laws in 1996 that have resulted in an apparent end to mass homicides, and a substantial reduction in homicides and youth suicides. Oliver, in essence, asks "Why can't this happen in the US?" You can draw your own conclusions from the videos, here.
