Complete and utter bullshit.

When all is said and done, morality is subjective. You could even say it's just a mindset. There are certain things some could say they would never be capable of doing. The truth is that they are perfectly capable - they just have a sense of right and wrong that was taught to them from a very early age. What people like you and I have that Hitler, Manson, and Holmes DIDN'T, is a conscience, and the ability to empathize and have consideration for other people's feelings and well-being. Something went chemically wrong in their brains so that that guilt just doesn't register, and that is what we call a sociopath.

I don't think the guy is evil, or that Hitler or Manson were evil. To say that is to try and distance ourselves as much as possible from these people and just totally dismiss them as freaks of nature, when really what we should be doing is learning all we can from them and taking something away from each incident in terms of awareness and personal knowledge of mental illness.

I agree that we must learn how they think and what makes these people the way they are. But anyway you look at it, they are evil. There os no justification for killing, no mental illness that can't be traced back to evil.

Religion is necessary or at least some form of moral guidance for matters of the heart and emotions.

Don't have to believe in a religion, but having values and morals is important.

How ironic, the same could be said about guns.

As they say in the industry, "if it bleeds, it leads."

Okay you guys, this thread was made to pay respect to the victims of the shooting and to discuss the shooting itself. I think that part has run its course and the religious discussion has gone far enough, we don't want to go there, so I'm just going to lock this thread before it takes an ugly turn. We can all decide for ourselves what we believe in, and nobody here necessarily has to know or share what that is.
