I don't think religion had anything to do with it. I think he was a 73 year old white supremacist . At least that's what they said last night when I watched the news. Some people are just evil, I don't know how you cure that. Wish I did.

[Maldog]

I agree Digger its not religion causing the problems its the lack of religion or a selfish misuse  or interpretation of religion or Gods teaching With out a powerful moral measuring stick social behavior will continue to  worsen ,

Whether this is in jest or not, it's pretty ignorant.
There are a million reasons for one person to hate another, a difference of religion is just one.
And, believe it or not, religion is not even close to the main reason for the majority of war on this world.

Pretty stupid comment, Patrick.

The shooter was not concerned with religion but with ethnicity.  Two of his dead victims were Methodists, a grandfather and his grandson.  There are multiple community events, not just Jewish religious events held at the center.

My wife knows at least four people who were present at the site during the shootings.  Only one of the four was Jewish ethically or religiously.

What's wrong with this country?  There are several hundred million very sane people in this country.  If you're ready to be making dramatic policy restrictions based upon the behavior of one insane person out of several hundred million, it's not the country that's at fault.

yeah, don't you know how important religion is!!  it's the back bone of this country.....

then again, you might have posted that comment to "bate" me......

the problem with religion is when a person entwines emotion with their belief, then lets one overtake the other.  this KKK shooter believes "his" beliefs are the right beliefs, and that whom ever is not like him is against him. there are a lot of people that believe that.  the problem came in when his emotions took over.  "HE" thought he was doing the better for the community, much like hitler believed getting rid of the jews would solve all the worlds problems......  just like I've found myself hating people that are similar to obummer (you know, liberals and democrats in general).  I dislike those type of people, but I also know that the truest freedom is to allow others to have their "own" beliefs and if "I" infringe on their freedoms, sooner or later, my own freedoms would be eroded away.....

[Willow]

then again, you might have posted that comment to "bate" me......

No, Al, I was just stating my opinion.

I'm really not the type to "bait".  I'm pretty straight forward in what I have to say.  Either you didn't bother to read my complete post or it failed to connect with your level of understanding.   

... I also know that the truest freedom is to allow others to have their "own" beliefs and if "I" infringe on their freedoms, sooner or later, my own freedoms would be eroded away.....

Somehow that statement seems inconsistent with your signature line.   ???

In that posting the individual's race was not delineated, yet Dave's comment indicates Dave assumed he was other than white.  That assumption reveals Dave's own racial prejudices.  

[motomama]

This is a very, very sad situation.  The people that I know that were there at the time are having a very difficult time dealing with it.  Their children, ages 3&5 were terrified and still are.  Both of the little boys had nightmares about it last night.  Carl and I were eating lunch not far from there yesterday when it took place, but we did not know about it until later yesterday.  It can happen to any of us, anytime, anywhere.  There is so much evil in this world and the shooter was a prime example of that.  I know I am spending time praying for those that involved in this situation and their families!

Religion, divides.

Love Unites.

Jesus preached Love your Neighbor as you love Yourself.

I choose to follow the God Man Messiah that rose on the 3rd day so you and I can live

through his sacrifice. All a man has to do is accept him, it is free.

Remember religion leads you to a place no one should go. Jesus leads you to eternal life.

But Freedom of Religion ensures we can worship, not shoot each other.

[Big Al of Tennessee]

Let's See the guy was an avowed racist.

KKK

Hated Jews, Blacks, and well anyone he wants to I guess.

Remember 1 in 24 in this country, are Psychopathic.

We came from all over the world and were thrown out of places all over the world.

A Psycho like this, latches onto an Idea. He has no empathy or compassion or compunction about

killing.

Asbergers is similar. There is no rhyme or reason or anything we can do to stop them.

Just be ready to meet your maker or not, at anytime.

You can't make sense out of hate and calling each other names here ain't helping either.

Ok, DANCEOFF

Dance Off, that knocks a lot of the folks out of the race right there.

When evil is called good and good is called evil, when every example of good is lost Hollywood stars and gov is corrupt. When we take God out of the US what would you expect to happen. John Lennon's Imagine is actually happening here in the US and now we see the results. We no longer have to imagine.

[Crackerborn]

Is fascism a religion? Make no mistake, this man is a fascist. We all are a product of our upbringing to a certain extent. We are the ones that allow that past to influence our present. I was brought up in the deep south where the Deacons of my church were proud members of the John Birch Society. Does that mean I had to accept the tenets of their belief system? Because I live in a country that allows me the freedom to think and act upon my own, I must accept the responsibility of my actions. This perpetrator of the heinous acts committed is solely responsible for his actions and should suffer the consequences. Pretending that this man is anything other than the murderer that he is denigrates our society. Is he a bigot? Absolutely!!!! Does that alone make him worthy to swing by the neck until "he be dead"? NO. His beliefs were his own until the actions that made him a criminal were committed. It is a hard line to draw since this POS was being watched and how could someone being "watched" get this far? Is the KKK any different than some of the Muslim extremists out there? How about the Black Panthers? Rainbow Coalition? Racism still exists in many forms and it is our responsibility as adults to not be sucked into the media hype that continues to feed racism. Reasonable people are allowed to disagree and have a discourse about their differences. Fascists don't want to allow that discourse since it doesn't serve their purpose.

Draw your own conclusions.

It is very sad. And the impact it is having and will have on these young kids seems to be getting lost in this discussion. I will pray and hope for them also.

[Oss]

Tragic

Playing God never ends well

Prayers for the families harmed and the community itself which will have to deal
with the media and those politicians and other wackos who have agendas

Attacking a place of prayer is an ultimate act of cowardice and rage

If Kansas needs a volunteer to flick a switch I am sure there will be many ready

So, not their's, yours.
Of course, thats understandable. Even in just this country, religion has been causing trouble amongst groups since the Pilgrims and Puritans.
It's similar to those that claim racism when none was implied.
People just can't get along.

[alph]

it's interesting how some people are so convinced how they've got the "only way" to some kind of mythical (unproven) heavenly afterlife.  they're so convinced that there is a "life after death" even though there's absolutely no evidence for it.

what's scary is they'll even kill to promote their beliefs, and if you're not like them, you're against them. that's what this "cross" guy believed.

I was watching a UW Madison professor talking about how he came from a "well diverse" town in upper Wisconsin.  he said; "sure we had a LOT of diversity, we had Norwegians, Germans and Polish people in town, we even had several different religions like Catholics, Lutherans, even Protestants!!"

I had to laugh.  man, that's some serious diversity there!!  and to think he ended up as a professor at UW Madison.

Any Church that says they are the only way, I mean that Church, is a cult.

Jesus was never a religion, they only called themselves as people of the WAY.

As he said he was the way.

I had a friend that was clinically dead, or OK his heart stopped and he left his body.

CPR for 28 minutes and then defibrillated back to the land of the living.

He said it is nothing to be afraid of, dying. Easiest thing you will ever do.

Would not talk about what he saw. He told most it was darkness. He knew it was more

than that. Just kept it to himself.

Well this year he died of Flu and Double Pneumonia, I will see him again. Sure miss him

right now though.

Jesus, don't leave this Earth without him.
