Well, they are right, unfortunatly criminals can be found in every religion. Christian Fundies killing homosexuals and abortion Doctors, Islamic terrorists killing jews and christians, and yes unfortunatly pagan murderers too. But none of these should be held as representative of their religions. Just as only a very depraved christian would commit murder, so to only a very depraved pagan would commit such a crime. These people can be found everywhere and there doesn't appear to be any religion that is free of them.

It never fails to amaze me that when a Pagan commits a crime it is part of a cult ritual. However when a Christian commits the same crime they are a poor deranged person in need of help. Hmmmm, double standard here?

OH, yes it's a double standard. With more people getting national stories, we are now about to point that out more. By mentioning well known such cases. And the people we are talking to, also know about the case. Pointing this out in a nice, calm way.. maybe with some 'can you believe' type jokes... Goes along way with pointing out and spreading the word. A lot of times, people are just so stupid not to make the connection. IT's up to those who see it to point it out.

Thanks for pointing out that we all can do something about these double standards other than just whine. Complaints are not usually constructive in themselves.

What exactly are you trying to say? Curious. Regardless of creed, if one is that evil, punishment follows. I do not care who they are or WHAT they are. So, get off the Christian /Hebrew/.....and stay focused on WHAT she did. If anyone can speak Aramaic, I will converse. MOST CHRISTAINS ancestors were pagans, by ignorance. Geographical location: USA from Europe.(in part). Most CHRISTIAN teachers are ignorant of the word, hence they will not teach in its reality/transliteration/transl ation. WHY? They will have to give up their job and benefits. Tell me who is going to judge them first? Pew potatoes unless educated in the Ancient Eastern Text, have no clue as to the Key of David. Cogitate on it .

Cogitate on it . I think in all fairness,(and it grieves me so to be fair to Spanky) her point was the article itself did not focus on what the person did. It Tittilized with a connection to "strange beliefs". Also in fairness, Spanky never mentioned, anything related to any faith in her post, she really did stick to the fact that journalistic integrity was lacking. I think your comments are unfair. One last thing, don't be so quick to slap Spanky around. Thats my job.
