Quote:BOOKS found in the luggage of the Australian twin sisters who carried out a suicide pact at a Colorado shooting range suggest they were searching for meaning.
Notice how the article mentions several books these sisters were carrying in their luggage, but somehow they decided to single out Richard Dawkins' The God Delusion in the headline as if concluding that particular book had to be the reason for their actions.
Typical reaction by religious, conservative media trying to blame atheism for the stupid actions of some people. This is beyond ridiculous. Reminds me of an article I read once regarding two kids driving a car recklessly and found with a copy of a Need for Speed game in the car.
Sure let's put all the blame for the world's problems in atheist books and video games.
Contrast that with 9/11 everyone of the bombers was a Quran believing Muslims and read that book everyday. However I dunno if that fact was mentioned. I bet if the twins had a copy of Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren it would have never been mentioned in the press.
