Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

End religion and all spiritual ideas. That will resolve this issue.

I guess we have to end money, too, because a lot of people murder people for money. And relationships - gotta end those too, because when they go sour sometimes someone gets murdered.

Good idea, Viking. I applaud your clearly well-thought-out notion of having people avoid doing anything in order to resolve the issue of undeserved murder.
and the horse you rode in on

Are you being sarcastic, fahdiz?

Wow, and I thought Brits are civilized people.
To be fair they were originally from DR of Congo, this wasn't a Church of England exorcism.

How racist of you to point that out.

On the other hand, the cure would be worse than the disease.

Without God there is no problem of Evil and no need to explain deleterious situations with malevolent agency.
Without magic those claiming to be subject to malevolent agency cannot claim magic as the solution to his cognitive dissonance explaining how the malevolent agency performed it's evil acts.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

So they stated a different reason for killing him?  What good does that do?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

He hates religion.  He's a bigot.  What he says doesn't need to make sense.

I wonder how originally they are from the Congo.
Were they just born there but brought up in Britain or did they just come over a few years ago?
If the former.....wow.....Holy poo.

Maybe they're Belgians with worse accents.
