Why would a person enter a place of entertainment armed and blow away anyone, much less several people; leaving others maimed? To say nothing of bereaved.
And why would society at large proclaim "mentally ill -- evil/devil," then proceed to incarcerate or destroy the perpetrator? If in fact the perpetrator was restrained and approached with empathy, mercy, love; understanding. The problem could, or would, be solved by due process and deliberation. What we kill kills us -- the keeper is kept. And I am willing to bet my immortal soul on my truth; no law, no judgement or executioner's song need apply. I ask of you and myself given the same or similar circumstance: what part of # 6. Thou shalt not kill do we not understand?
Our perceptions tell a great deal about who and what we are; socially and culturally.
Who & What we blame equally so.
"THE ANTI-CHRIST!" is a projection of personal, if unconscious, attitudes, beliefs and denied feelings upon the Other. Avoiding our personal capacity, if given the opportunity without consequence, to do the same thing. . . .If you reside in the eye-for-an-eye camp, I've a bridge in Brooklyn I'll sell you very reasonably. My point is that God kills no one. Saves all spiritually. Has no hands thus it is only we who decide the nature of truth & justice here and now.
To clarify: blaspheme is not against The Prophet or God; but against an Idol. If we were able to converse with either or both individually I think-feel-sense-intuit that you and/or I would be astonished at their sadness; since Idols have not thoughts no life. They are hollow.
Yet while we all have a sense of God, indefinable when it comes to personal accountability, we would rather say; "The Devil Made" me do it.
Worse: "God-Made-Me-DO IT!"
Instead of participating and taking responsibility for our life, our free will and our consciousness we elect people to 'take care of us.'
Those who take authority over the herd, we the mob, reward themselves richly while we slumber; their hands in our pocketbook/wallet . . . Which never being enough to pay for their reelection is accepted from greater authority called Corporations to guarantee the laws manipulating us to provide more for those who cynically know the price of everything yet the value of nothing. Such choice or indifference is insane: repeating the same action expecting different results.
I have graduated from being a foolish old man scolding politicians; who should know better. To being a foolish old man who does. And of this world I soon leave would leave something better than what I found.
Be good, no longer ignorant and stupid, then be well.
"In order that all men may be taught to speak truth, it is necessary that all likewise should learn to hear it." --Samuel Johnson
