See, this is where we disagree. In my case, it’s not even necessarily that this kid was black. I’m sure that this particular mother and foster case threw up a collection of red flags. You say they acted with rationality and never could have expected anything like this, but I’d bet there was at least one signal that this kid’s mother was violent and could be dangerous.
Which doesn’t mean that the family deserved this, just that their naïveté isn’t as celebrated and holy as you’re acting.
We don't get to know the details.
No, you refuse to acknowledge the details because it undermines your point.
If compassion was enough to guarantee the reward no matter the ignorance or naivety, then you, right now, should be going out into the jungle to help tribe's people. And when they kill or torture then kill you, you get your reward that supersedes all other things.
The fact that you, and most, aren't means there is in fact a level of nuance to this you are trying to sermon around.
What details, then?
That they made a dangerous and risky choice that invited evil into their home, and in exchange made their own child suffer immensely for it.
I've made my jungle point enough times that its obvious you refuse to answer it, which says enough about your mindset of "just say God and don't think further."
