text: Coming from a Christian perspective I do not see how a person can classify this situation as "sad" - Perhaps for the Child, but most definitely not for the adult. Jesus (who is God) is infuriated with those that work lawlessness, especially in his name, and is just as angry as many here on this site are.  Here are several direct quotes:
  
  Mat 7:21-23  “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.  (22)  On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’  (23)  And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
  
  Mat 18:6  but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.
