Actually, the argument boils down to “not only is Darwood’s materialist creation myth sham science, it is also evil.”
You said it! They have been statistically proven to be much more miserable than conservatives.
The tactics of invoking Columbine don’t appear to have changed any.
Well.....?
those two boys were extremely troubled, what they did was horrible, and it in no way should be linked to darwinism, video games, marilyn manson, bullying, high school cliques, or any of the other inane theories surrounding their actions. what it boils down to is that their parents sucked at their jobs and did not realize the extent of their children’s problems. perhaps with an active parent in either one of those households this tragedy never would have happened.
gun control, record label warnings, video game warnings, self-esteem classes and anti-bullying seminars will do nothing to prevent tragedies like this from occurring. the only prevention is good parenting which we obviously cannot guarantee.

Yup, plenty.
Need any? {g}
This may be the major reason:
John 14:27
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
Jesus promises us peace in our hearts.
First firearms, now philosophy.
Sorry Box, the so-called Darwinian “theory” of evolution is so full of holes, even the Evos are abandoning the HMS Beagle in search of a new God-denying evolutionary ship. The new evolutionary “synthesis” (as the Evos like to put it) will undoubtedly be just as scientifically unsound, and just as evil, but it doesn’t change the fact that the Temple of Darwinistic Materialism is on its way out, even amongst the Evo-faithful.

Perhaps without Darwinian indoctrination this tragedy never would have happened!
Not aware of their mcveigh connection. Both were accused of homosexual behavior by several classmates.
>>Darwinian indoctrination
“Luciferian” would probably be more accurate than “Darwinian”.
And Mcveigh in 1995 was inspired by the raid on Waco in 1993. Sad how these historical tragedies connect.
I'll make it simple for you. How does your belief in whether or not the theory of evolution is "evil" affect its adherence to evidence?
Never forget, this was NOT a ‘school shooting’.
It was a Domestic Terror attack, folks. Two years in the planning, 56 pipebombs, 4 propane bombs.
“Motivations

In journal entries, the pair often wrote about events such as the Oklahoma City bombing, Waco, and other similar events, including blurbs and notes on how they wished to “outdo” these events, focusing especially on what Timothy McVeigh did in Oklahoma City.”

If you google-dig, you should be able to locate the original journal entries.
I read them... several years ago now.
Another McVeigh connection is via Michigan. The paramilitary twits ultimately did more damage to the 2nd than good; as Orwell would probably have predicted.
Observe the impotent proliferation of automatic weapons in Iraq.
And still... useful idiots boast about “filing down pins”.
Ehem.
