What is this world coming to????? GRAPHIC CONTENT
 
This CBS News report broke my heart and made me sick to my stomach. Human beings have such capacity for evil sometimes that it completely baffles me.

In CHINA, a toddler is ran over by a truck and left in the middle of the street. Worse, multiple people walk around the toddler and do nothing at all to assist or call for help.

Article: http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503543_1...91-503543.html

Quote:
"The video from Foshan City of Guangdong Province in China is unequivocal: A two-year-old is seen lying in a pool of blood on a market street having just been hit by a truck, which sped away after slowing running over her with its back wheels too, after which more than a dozen people walk around the toddler, non offering help.

The child, named Yueyue, survived the accident, after a 56-year-old rag collector finally came to her rescue and dragged her out of the road, but not before a second truck hit the girl, according to China Daily. She is now, however, in rough shape - "brain dead," doctors say - and is unlikely to survive...."



AGAIN - video content is GRAPHIC and shocking--don't say you weren't warned.

That is absolutely horrifying - however, my first thought was this. In China, abortions are forced upon women - therefore, the people have no real respect for human life - especially children. So sad!

I was deeply disturbed by this. But I felt something come to mind.

We in the church meet in our nice tabernacles, put on a Christian concert, have a professional speaker, and give our money to keep the building and pay the speaker. We quibble over silly "standards" that just make us look stupid. We try to invite people... but all too often we don't really share our lives with them.

The church is busy about it's religious business while a world of over six BILLION people die in the night, destined for a devil's Hell.

I feel deeply convicted for my lack of passion and zeal for the Gospel. Am I letting precious souls die at my feet as I simply walk about my day on the way to work, home, shopping, entertainment, and then a church service? If so... God help me.

I work for a large corporation with many overseas locations. A few years ago I worked on a project with an executive who traveled a lot to China on business. He said that there are parts of China where if a bus driver hits a pedestrian they will back up and run over them again to make sure they are dead and not just hurt because if they are seriously hurt there is a lot more money and paperwork involved than if they are dead.

In Mexico, if you help someone hurt in the street, they will (possibly) hold you liable, so people wait to see if they can drag themselves to the curb, then they'll help them. This world is a sick place.

God help us. So disturbing. I can't even make myself watch the video. I can't even come close to watching it actually. Maybe because it hits too close to home since I have a toddler around the same age.
