'One dead' in US church shooting

Map

One person has been killed and others injured in a shooting at a church in the US state of Illinois, according to local media reports.

The St Louis Post-Dispatch said the shooting happened at the First Baptist Church in Maryville, about 20 miles (30km) from St Louis, in Missouri.

The paper quoted officials saying the man killed was the church's pastor.

The suspected attacker is said to be in custody and receiving treatment for self-inflicted stab wounds.

He reportedly walked into the church during a Sunday morning service and shot Pastor Fred Winters.

The Post-Dispatch said Mr Winters died in hospital of a gunshot wound to the chest.

It remains unclear how many people in the church were injured.


Ok, Ok already! I know that I am pretty hyper critical of the negative effect that Christianity and its twisted, perverted, contradictory teachings and practices has on society and those very few of us who are even remotely left semi-sane. But this is going a bit too far!

I have never and don't advocate the use of violence on anyone simply because they are Christian, or at least claim to be though their actions may suggest otherwise. In fact, I don't advocate the use of violence at any time for any reason. Though, I understand if one uses violence to protect oneself from violence being visited upon oneself from another. Even then, it is just bad karma.

But when one see's news stories like the one posted (and linked to) above, when one considers the Jihad that Islamic extremists are conducting against "the Christian World or 'those blue eyed devils'", and even the name of this blog (not to give myself any credit for people kinda hating the double standards expressed by the practice of the perverted 'modern Christianity'), one really must stop and wonder... what the fuck are you Christians doing that is earning you all of this obvious disfavor?

I'm just sayin'...

Can ya give us a hint?
