Get out of jail free card being played here I am thinking

I don't think "falling sway to the embodiment of all evil," is really the kind of thing that makes you morally in the clear. 
To be fair, insane people claim all sorts of things to excuse their crimes.
I did read a recent stat though that a Christian (someone who identifies themselves as such) is 15 times more likely to end up in prison than an atheist. Dem pesky stats.

"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."
-Stephen Jay Gould 
And why would she be following the orders of the devil? Was be blackmailing her for passing off a store bought pie as a homemade one at the church bake sale?
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

Sounds more like Schizophrenia than "religious nuttiness" to me.
