Re: Chavez is Dead
My first choice would have been for Chavez to have;
-Not suffered from cancer
-Turned his life over to God
-As a Christian stop being a dictator ruining his country by socializing everything in sight and trampling over peoples rights
However since that did not happen I would have to agree with the poster who said our response should be to "party like it's 1999".
What an evil despicable man. The world is a better place without him. As far as his Vice President's accusation that Chavez "had been infected by Imperialist enemies" - if by some stretch of the imagination it was a CIA operation my hat is off to them as the last time they attempted something like this was a few decades ago and Castro is still alive.
We do need to remember Sean Penn, Louis Farrakhan, and Harry Belafonte as I know they must be grieving the loss of their hero tonight.

I always thought it to be Christ's desire everyone to be saved.
I know this is not the case with a lot of evil dictators, unless they repent and we don't know about it.....
I sense a different spirit on this thread. that's to bad!

Did you miss the first part of my post where I sincerely stated that I wished Chavez had been saved? Or were you just agreeing with me and observing you did not see that sentiment much on this thread?

I really was thinking this too.
How many hours has he been soaking in the flames of hell?
How many worms has he not been able to pull from his writhing body yet?
Will there EVER be any relief for this ruler of men who most likely died without knowing Jesus?
Kind of eery to think about death in these terms.
Hitler.
Elvis.
Hussein.
Winehouse.
Reagan.
Jackson.
Chavez.
Did they have anyone in their lives who prayed for them?
Were the prayers of those who cared for them (if anyone) simply ineffective?
Did they ever themselves stop to pray?
Davidson.
Will you be ready?

Re: Chavez is Dead
This is certainly bitter sweet. His soul certainly must be taken into consideration.
It is a shame.
I certainly was no fan of him though, and I won't miss him or his antics.
