If “satan” was behind this, then why isn’t it happening everyday, everywhere? Based on this thought process, could God not stop it?

Satan is responsible for Monday’s mass killings of 32 people at the Blacksburg, Va., campus.

Satan?---Isn't that special.

I would think you would view it more as “survival of the fittest” as per your tagline.

The killer is responsible, though satan may have whispered in his ear.

God gave us ALL free will..to choose evil or good.

Choose good.

Satan tempted him, and he made the choice to follow his leading. We always have the final choice. That is what makes us unique in God’s eyes. Satan and God can influence us, but we make the final call.

Well, after reading all the simpletons saying “Satan did it” you tend to want to look for an ounce of logic and reason.

God created you. Therefore your bigotry is His fault.

Not really...it's yyour fault. Just wanted to show you I could do it too.

See Genesis 3. The Fall of Man wrecked the world in a profound way and we're stuck with it until Christ's work of redemption is complete.

No, just turning it back on the creationists.

They are all for God doing micromanagement and creation when its convenient, but when it looks bad, its all Satan’s fault.

Nice easy way to explain things.

Satan Behind Virginia Tech Killings

Actually, I'm pretty sure that insanity is behind the Virginia Tech killings.

Sorry, Reverend, but this lunatic didn't need any help from Beelzebub. This guy was already a nutcase who should have been locked up but wasn't due to politically correct stupidity.

That's not to say I don't believe that true evil and Satan don't exist, but at some point most of us are responsible for our own behavior.

God gave everyone the gift of "free will", what each of us chooses to do with that gift is our responsibility. In the end, God has the final judgement. It's inexcuseable to blame a loving God for all the evil in the world. God is not evil, Satan is.
