The Texas church shooter who mercilessly shot dead 26 people and injured 24 others was an 'outcast' who 'preached his atheism' online.
Former classmates say Devin Patrick Kelley, 26, who stormed First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs in Texas and opened fire on Sunday, was 'creepy', 'crazy' and 'weird'.
Patrick Boyce, who attended New Braunfels High School with the killer, told DailyMail.com: 'He had a kid or two, fairly normal, but kinda quiet and lately seemed depressed.
'He was the first atheist I met. He went Air Force after high school, got discharged but I don't know why. 'I was just shocked [to hear the news]. Still havent quite processed how he could have done that.'
Nina Rose Nava, who went to school with the gunman, wrote on Facebook: 'In (sic) in complete shock! I legit just deleted him off my fb cause I couldn't stand his post. 'He was always talking about how people who believe in God we're stupid and trying to preach his atheism'

The first three commandments:
3 You shall have no other gods before[a] me.
4 You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.
7 You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.
That is what I think too.
Communism and atheism go hand in hand.
While atheism doesn’t lead a person to commit mass murder, it certainly removes huge obstacles. There is no doubt in my mind that much of the worsening depravity we see today is a direct result of Judeo-Christian values being removed from the public sphere - not just official government stuff, but EVERYWHERE. I see the attempts to minimize the crimes of certain “preferred victims” (homosexual deviants with sexual contact with minors, Muslims with spousal abuse) as further eroding a common set of values that make a society function.
Thanks!
I’ll bet he was also on some kind of mind altering drugs since they say he was depressed lately.
Your theory bout atheists is the same theory I have about Pro-Abortion VOTERS.....they know they are wrong, but they want as many other people to be wrong with them,
... or to watch kids at vacation bible school when the BCD was for assault of a wife and child.
How’s the shooter feeling Now,,,
In Hell?
Facts were easy to find in the UK papers.
The Texas church madman was a disgraced Air Force veteran who was court-marshaled in 2012 after assaulting his wife and child, reports said.
Devin Patrick Kelley, who joined the military in 2010,was given a dishonorable discharge and slapped with 12 months of confinement in 2014 after his court marshaling, CBS News reported.
No problem. Hard to vet stuff when records are disappeared.
