I have been reading a lot of threads on some Christian forums and most of them say that they would kill their child if God truly commanded them to.

Outrageous!

In regard to the OP, no, of course I wouldn't kill my children. But then again, I'm not a psychopathic sheep.

And what's up with the nutters responding to the Jeffrey Dahmer thing? Seriously? My favorite is Phillo127: "NO ONE commenting here, including me, is any better than Dahmer. NO ONE." The utter lack of basic moral sense is simultaneously frightening and hilarious. I lack the words to express my contempt for these deluded fucks.

Yet another reason not to go to heaven. Jeffery Dahmer is there waiting for you.

The youtube comment section is a strange and scary place. No good can come of visiting it.

These people need to be watched. Someone contact the FBI. I sometimes say how it's unjust how Hitler can be in heaven over someone like Anne Frank, but these crazies are just fine with it. Phillo thinks we're all as bad as him. I'd say someone needs to get a warrant on that one asap.

Nutcases. People can do some severely backwards shit sometimes. At the trials of some of the most notorious serial killers in US history (Richard Ramirez and Ted Bundy come to mind) there were "groupies" who admired them, and I think one or two of them were married. At least the crazies celebrating Dahmer's conversion were assuming he'd repented and turned to god instead of trying to become the girlfriend of a guy whose hobby was raping, torturing, and murdering the very same type of young lady who were fawning over him.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

I think sociopaths are often described as charismatic, which could go some way to explain why these people would have fans.

The best part of that photo is where it reminds us that he was beaten to death in prison.

Good.

That's pretty much the second best thing if you can't get some sick shithead executed. Just put him/her in a place where there are people of greater moral value who are willing to execute the person for you. Unfortunately it doesn't happen every time, but it happens sometimes.
