    Why does God never tell ME any good stuff?

    All He ever tells me, via our Pastors, is that women were Born to serve Men

    Wash. rampage suspect in court: 'I kill for God'

    MOUNT VERNON, Wash. (AP) -- "I kill for God. I listen to God," a man accused of a northwest Washington shooting rampage said Friday at a hearing where six charges of first-degree murder and four of first-degree assault were filed against him.
    Isaac Zamora made the chilling comment twice at the brief hearing in Skagit County District Court while investigators wrapped up their work at eight crime scenes. The 28-year-old is being held on $5 million bail in the wake of Tuesday's rampage, which left six people dead and four injured.
    District Court Judge Warren Gilbert read each charge and the penalties, which carry a maximum sentence of life in prison. That doesn't mean the death penalty is off the table, according to the Skagit County prosecutor.
    "Do you talk about it? Sure you talk about it," Prosecutor Rich Weyrich told the Skagit Valley Herald. "Where it goes, it's way too early to decide that."
    Zamora was not required to enter a plea Friday. The charges filed in District Court allow Zamora to be held in custody for 30 days. He will later be formally charged in county Superior Court.
    A hearing has been set for Oct. 3.
    The affidavit for probable cause, which details in support of the charges, remains sealed for 10 more days while the investigation continues.
    The attacks began near Zamora's mother's home near the tiny town of Alger, 70 miles north of Seattle, and continued on Interstate 5. After a high-speed police pursuit, Zamora surrendered at a sheriff's office in Mount Vernon, about 20 miles south of Alger.
    Among the dead was Skagit County Deputy Sheriff Anne Jackson, who had responded to a call to check on Zamora.
    Also killed were a man shot at the same location as Jackson; two male construction workers shot nearby; a 48-year-old woman found a few houses away; and a 64-year-old motorist killed along I-5 near a rest stop, authorities said. Two people were wounded near Alger - one by stabbing - and two were wounded on the freeway, including a state trooper.
    Zamora, who has a long record of run-ins with the law, had been admitted several times to hospitals for mental health treatment and attempted suicide several times, his friends and family said.


    Oh.my.God. Apparently this Christian is headless, too - just like Bozo the Troll. Should I worry?

    Now this is probably a senseless tragedy where a deranged individual went on an unprovoked killing spree. But I'm going to reserve judgement. Do we know if the people that he killed were True Christians™? Could any or all of them have angered God in some way? Who knows. I'm going to wait for more facts to come out before I condemn this possibly deranged, but possibly righteous Soul.

      Speaking of Bozo where has he been lately? Did they finally scoop him up out of the gutter?

      Leviticus 26:27-29

      27 And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me;
      28 Then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins.
      29 And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.

        That's one of those questions where the answer is almost always yes.
        O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.



        God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

          You're right Brother Temperance, and that brings up an interesting point. If you randomly kill someone who has offended the Lord while on a rampage, killing spree, what have you, do you get a "mulligan" on that person?

          Or does God need the killing of the unrighteous to be intentional for it not to be a sin. Does the madman who kills 18 people from a clock tower get into Heaven if all 18 of the people he randomly blasts just happen to have been on God's list of those that should be put to death for their sins?

          And what of the righteous man, who while he is attempting to stone a Sodomite, has a little collateral damage and kills an innocent. Does he got straight to Hell when he dies?

            Those are puzzling points to ponder indeed, Brother. Perhaps attempting to do so later is what apparently made the head of the Christian GunMan explode Right off his shoulders
