    Funny, how:
    I didn't hear him say "it was b/c I'm a Christian" or "he's not a Christian" or "we're all whacky (sic)". Against, which principle of Christ states that you're supposed to blow the head off of those you think are doing wrong? Did he go up to the "erring brother" and attempt to convince him of his ways? Bring along an elder to talk with him? Did pastoral discipline remove Tiller from worshipping there?

    This seems almost hateful. "Someone did something wrong, and they're in the religious spectrum....Time to fire off Sarcastic Barbs at the Christians!"

    And, tangentially, it's "Hallelujah" or "Alleluia". Both of which are derived from "Praise the Lord" (using the Jewish pronunciation of the name of God).

    So what's your point? That there are whackos who call themselves Christians? Not exactly a newsflash.

    Please point out the group in our society that is free of unstable or misguided individuals.

    Again, what of:
    goes along with the tenets of Chrsitianity? You're doing a great job of proving how American nutcases do illegal things. The crazy thing to me is that there's plenty of garbage easily dug up about actual professing Christians, but you're missing out on it.

    In any event, no person (professing Christian or not) is perfect. No one claims to be (aside from the Son of God, that is). At OJ's trial, or K*be's trial, or the Unabomber's trial, no one said "look at those whacky (sic) non-Christians! Killin' an' rapin' in the name of, well, themselves." But if there's a breath of cultism (see David Koresh, or the polygamists, or "faith healing disciples", or "Alamonians") then it gets lumped in with Christianity and derided.

    I see nothing in that article that mentions that lunatic being an atheist, in fact, i seem to rember hearing quite the opposite. Cmon Wook, hating on us faithless and liking Larry the Cable Guy? You're better than that my friend.

    These threads are lame and just make the posters that start them look angry, ignorant and intolerant.

    I said "free of", not "entirely composed of".
