Typical Cases of Leaders in Catholicism and Christianity in Mainland China who Resist Almighty God Being Punished
164. Gong X from Lidian Town in Wafangdian City, female, 58 years old, a deacon from the Three-Self denomination. In May 1999, someone preached God’s end-time work to her, but she, after reading the book of God’s word, not only didn’t accept it but also condemned it and said viciously: “I’d rather take people to hell than accept it.” On the night of August 10 of the same year, Gong X was hacked to death by her son. And after that, her son was beaten to death by her husband. In the end, Gong’s family was broken up and decimated because she did evil.

Very proper too. Why should God be punished? I mean, She's God, isn't It.
Adn BTW, shouldn't Gong have been struck and beaten to death?
Some unLoving Deity you choose to fashion in your own image! So much for God's Mercy and Forgiveness. Take care. She/It might be waiting to get you too!
So... why again do fundies advocate a swift death penalty? They say that if you wait too long, the punishment isn't seen as being a response to the crime. Yet their own god regularly waits months or even years to punish someone for a crime, usually in a way that has no direct relation to the crime itself, takes out people who were in no way involved, and isn't attributed to being a punishment for the crime until after the fact.
That'll show 'em!
If the god Hidden-Advent worships would step in and butcher all female preachers, it would go along way to a) proving his existence, b) demonstrating his power, c) showing his unbridled misogyny, and d) demonstrating what a complete asshole he is. Put it together and you would have a lot of happy fundamentalists.
Occam Razor is screaming loud. This woman died because her family was problematic, to begin with. Any other attempt to connect it with a failing theology, bring us to the next level, why haven't God killed the 3/4 of the world who doesn't believe in that?
Meanwhile, in India, 400,000 people who were exposed to the same fundie bullshit have not been hacked to death by Gong X's deranged son thanks to the quick work of Satan and his instructions to Gong's husband. God's vengance is thwarted again!
MUHUHAHAHA!
If I might point out, according to this account, all she did was not believe the Bible. It was her son who committed murder, and her husband who killed him. Sounds to me like, rather than more belief in "God's word," her family needed more belief in anger management classes.
Hi all! This was my submission. I clicked on this site by accident, one of those Google ads at the top of the page, while looking at quotes.
I felt a litle bad submitting this since someone actually died (well, alledgedly ) but taking a horrible incident and making it fit into your theology while thousands of other such cases go unnoticed; not to mention the hundreds of cases that do not fit such a pattern, is sad in itself.
I checked out the site - Now I need a hot, soapy shower.
I know , huh DinDC ! I'm sorry I exposed all of you thoughtful people to such rabid fundamentalism, but at least now you know it's out there, waiting to pounce on you at the opportunity.

Consider who's in hell: Napoleon (arguably atheist)- got a general, Hitler (killed everone)- got a speaker, Stalin (atheist, homicidal maniac) ruthless dictator, all those various Islamic terrorists (not believing in the right God)- army of doom(tm), Einstein (not Jewish)- make crazy-arse god-killing death ray of unimaginable horror(tm).

Whoose God got? Cromwell? Some IRA? Is that it? Are they going to agree on anything? Fred Hoyle? Is he going to build a huge wall between heaven and earth to prevent diseases getting in, like he suggested when he was still alive?
In the end, Gong’s family was broken up and decimated because she did evil.
Yeah, either that or the whole lot of them were batshit insane, which would not surprise me at all.
@Burning Stake:
I actually think a lot of these alleged incidents were just made up, with some true ones where people coincidentally died after having been preached to a few years earlier thrown in for good measure. After all, if it supposedly happened in some rural area of China, who's going to prove it didn't happen?
So let me make some clarification:
This deaconess' son is a member of the Oriental Lightning cult, a doomsday scam aiming at hijacking religious or lesser cult communities to secure power and money ties. They used to be pretty big but after shit like this the government issued a crackdown.
They had a resurgence back in 2012 but no blood is shad anymore.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
