Must say that Antoinette Tuff did a great job with being fearless, having the presence of mind that helped avert the mass murder intentions of that armed, young gunman at an elementary school in Washington . This is part of that evolutionary advantage religion may impart, her story is an inspiration & good for her that she attributes this to God. But also something deep in the framework of the female mother instincts i was seeing too, its a tough world out there but she embraced even the gunman with acceptance & did not flinch from him.
This Christians need to see more of, good stuff especially her direct honesty, thats what the world needs more of, authenticity. She herself was on the verge of suicide just months earlier after the loss of husband, a true heroine, this is a beautiful woman in the full sense of the word. Your world of black & white isn't authentic, its devisive & polarizing to a degree that you must be countered.

'When suicidal gunman, Michael Jordan Hill, entered Decatur, Georgia's Ronald E. McNair Discovery Learning Academy, everyone feared it would be another Sandy Hook. The gunman never made it past the front office, though, where he held school bookkeeper, Antoinette TUFF, hostage.
While 800 pre-kindergarten through fifth grade students managed to be evacuated, TUFF kept the mentally unstable Hill talking, encouraging him to stay with her rather than go outside where she knew he would start killing kids. Where did TUFF get the courage and patience to do this while fearing for her own life? In this brief ABC News interview, she gives credit to God.'
