So, if the lack of God in schools is to blame, would Shipman, who thought he was God, be an example of how religion is easily distorted?
When exactly did the phenomemon of school shootings or mass shootings in general begin in the US?
I can't say for certain about the mass shootings thing, but, when taken into consideration that H. H. Holmes was the first documented serial killer in 1886, I would say that violent acts like this haven't gone
up, they're just being more publicized.
Respectfully disagree. I think it's the fact that parents are so quick to medicate their supposedly "A.D.D." children, that their mental faculties have hindered growth.
I don't think its a direct correlation to violent activity, because, like I said, things like this have been happening for a long time, probably with the same frequency as now. However, I think that parents should actually take more time with their children instead of medicating them and probably ignoring them.
I'm glad you brought up the Constitution. The Father of the Constitution, James Madison, said this, "We have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind for self government; upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God."
Of course, today he would be labelled a right winged SOB.
I don't know... historically the Founding Fathers were a little weird about religion. Thomas Jefferson owned a Koran and held a Ramadan Iftar at the White House, for example.
Abortion kills babies. So what's the difference? What the **** is wrong with people like you Lakhota?
I've come to this conclusion about abortion: We should not euthanize any species capable of calculus.
Thus, I've decided that I find abortion to be wrong. (Except life of the mother, possibly rape, but only because our adoption system is gutter trash.)
