Superzkid - You have a point there.There are so many other ways to say the same thing with out all that dirty filth in your mouth, or in this case at your finger tips. Try to clean it up for God watches all we do and you never want to be dead like this because of your mouth. These people who died may have died before their time. Maybe that was Gods plan. We don't know. All we can do is pray for those whose lives are taken too soon, that their souls get to the place they must go.
