Out of all the US historical figures, in my opinion Abraham Lincoln least deserves admiration. He was known for not being particularly intelligent, had a grade school level education, and was in reality quite a tyrant. He locked up many journalists and politicians who disagreed with his policies. He also almost single handedly delivered this nation into banker servitude, nearly destroying it in the process. His father was very abusive and neglectful, so it would not shock me to see some of that trauma or genetic inclination to have manifest in him.
Genesis 22
Merry Isaac Newton Day!!!
Sorry, I thought I saw Lincoln in there for some reason... lol.
I read the article. That is horrifying. I think the real question is here, how many times have people done equally horrifying things reenacting stories in movies or books of any kind. The court ruled she is mentally ill.
I don't know if any of you have any experience with mentally ill people, but I do, and they tend to latch on to various things in their environment and integrate it into their delusions. Honestly it just sounds to me like one evangelical belief system criticizing another, using an argument that is not particularly logic based at that.
If I touch you with a magic wand and give you a brain disease, does that now make atheism equally as invalid as your mind degenerates? Step up your game atheists, if you are going to claim to be the voice of reason and logic, at least bring some to the table.
