Look, all I'm saying Canterbury Cathedral is nice.

Is it that they have not gotten the blood stains out of the sacristy yet?

Since we're crushing Kep's perceptions and all ...

Hey Kep, the New York Giants play home games in New Jersey! :D

No True Scotsman.

By the way: if you will, pronouns are she and her, but will take they, them, and theirs. Will also accept being called Amber Marie or Bambi.

And the dysphoria is overwhelming tonight. Would be fantastic if I woke up tomorrow at a genetic female.

26 killed, 24 injured by self proclaimed atheist in church shooting in Sunderland Springs. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5053013/Devin-Kelley-outcast-preached-atheism.html

No nationality, race...or belief system causes hatred or violence. There is some crazy in all of them. My hope is that some day everyone realizes and acknowledges that...so we can better address it.

Oh, honey. The whole DEVIN KEELEY IS DUR ATHEIST!!! thing looks like a RWNJ myth. But I'm sure you meant to sincerely decouple creed from violence. :rolleyes:

When Thumpers attempt to play 3D chess like this it's obvious and pathetic. Please, try not to overthink it.

Relax. And yes, he's truly an atheist https://www.google.com/search?sourc...4.psy-ab..3.13.3057.0..33i160k1.0.FtoYgD0etto

Why is it so hard to understand that extremists are first extremists? Even today many crimes are committed by those who claim to have faith...and there are many that are committed by those who claim to be atheists.

I would encourage you to get over the 'this group good', 'that group bad' syndrome. Extremism is based on individuals.

Remember, mercy and love came into the world with Jesus. Just forget about everything before 33 AD, and everything in the East.

Not true. Charities are frequently founded on or based on Christian principles - and charities are a major conduit for helping others. I don't think that's much of a stretch.

Sunderland Springs was tragic in a way similar to other extremist acts of terror. That's all.

9/11 was caused by terrorist extremists who had been indoctrinated by other terrorist extremists. That's the way the US government has treated it, law has treated it...and most of society has treated it.

Sunderland Springs was caused by a terrorist extremist working on his own. And that's the way, the US government, law and most of society will see it.

Terror is terror...regardless of who's 'team' the terrorist is on.
