Well, you make a good point obviously. The intention was not to place blame on any one thing. The guy was a lunatic with a couple of glocks, that's the explanation.
Mine was a very simplistic supposition. It might even be argued that gaming acts a very good stress relief, even an outlet for lunatics. The concern is people can get hooked on gaming nearly as much as any drug, and are in growing numbers. They are blending the line between fantasy and reality more and more ....
the kid snapped, easily acquired two 9mm glocks, and choose to emulate any number of violent episodes he is exposed to on daily basis... then like all cowards, killed himself to avoid the consequences.
I think, The slaughtering in Africa is cultural, merely power struggles.... this is how people react in dire situations without the resources to sustain the population. It's kill or die starving.
(read lunatic as pyschologically f*d up)
As more info comes out it's clear this guy was nuts and had demonstrated dangerous behavior for years. Thanks to the hand wringers and their associates in groups like the ACLU nothing could be done. Had any real attempt been made to identify and challenge this kids behavior it would have been seen as racist profiling. To say otherwise would be intellectually dishonest and you hand wringers know it. Add 32 more dead people to the ever growing list caused by the radical left. We could lose a hundred thousand in Iraq and wouldn't even come close to the deaths caused by the radical left. They are the terrorists within our own borders, and far more dangerous.
Quote from Joab:
Although as a Christian I agree that someone should NOT be running around claiming they are the Son of God, I must say that these comments are very UN Christian like of you.
The point is to identify with the Son of God. For discussion purposes, the Son of God can be described as separated...part of him wanders as a prodigal Son, part stays at Home. Christ is that aspect of the Son that never left Home.
I, Jesus, am one who saw the face of Christ in everyone, and remembered our Father. I taught you how to remember the Son, so you can remember the Father.
You remember the Son by seeing the face of Christ in everyone, for every body is a mask over the face of Christ. I taught how to remove the mask and see the Son in his glory. Till then, you are blind.
For this reason I am known as "the Christ" because I saw with the eyes of Christ my Self in everyone.
As "Jesus" the Christ, I had a part to play in the restoration of the Son to his full glory. The full plan for restoration is known only by the Holy Spirit. I merely listened, and fulfilled my part. But each member of the Sonship has a part to play as he is guided by the Holy Spirit. Without that part fulfilled, no part is saved. No one can fulfill that part for you. In this sense, each of us are the light of the world...savior to all our brothers.
No one comes to the Father but by me. But no one comes to the Father but by you too. You underestimate the meaning of the word "one" . We are one.
I was the first to fulfill my part in the plan. I am a devoted brother. My mission is the restoration of the Sonship, with your cooperation. So long as you think Christianity is about NOT identifying with the Son of God, you are not yet cooperating...not yet filling your part.
Jesus
Of course it is, I totally agree but I think you've taken it a step too far calling yourself Jesus "the Christ".
We are impure and ALWAYS have been and ALWAYS will be TRUST ME I've tried to be pure and it was completely IMPOSSIBLE no matter how much will, I put into it.
I think you would do well to go back into the roots of the prophets BEFORE Christ because it's in these scriptures that MANY warn of GOD's anger towards false prophets even IF the message is pure.
God repeatedly warned that it was his right ALONE to speak to whom ever HE choose and that those claiming knowledge without actual spoken guidance were to be chastised and exposed as false.
So until you can PROVE that your words are those of the Father then your just another wanna bee and you will be exposed as such.
If you have evidence (as did the true Christ) through Miracles and wisdom, then show us but till then you really should be cautious and heed the warns from Old Testament prophets.
The messiah will be know by the fruit he bears !!!
