Now at the risk of being once again accused of taking the moral high ground I really do have better things to do than remonstrate with superhero scourgebag and his sideflick wussjester and would advocate that they take off their jaggy nettle underpants and try to walk lightly upon the ground because their present routine is rather tedious.

What purpose do your Christian beliefs serve, then, if they do not afford you any "moral high ground" in your dealings with non-Christians and Christians you have demonstrated contempt for?
This is the second time (in less than 12 hours) you've tried to turn this into a religious argument. Have you forgotten where you are?

Tell whodey about it. He was the one who wanted to discuss whether his question about Islam and mental illness was fair or not. I was pointing out to him that him joking around on serious matters might not be the best way for him to get the things he wants to discuss taken seriously.
Originally posted by whodeyBut if you've diagnosed "mental illness" as being behind the murder, what is the relevance of the religious affiliation? If the killer is sane and murders someone for political or religious purposes then it is surely terrorism and cold blooded homicide.

But if the killer is, in fact, insane and murders someone, then surely the insanity will mean that there is some degree of diminished responsibility. If this is so, then whether the killing is carried out for political or religious purposes, or for revenge, or in the course of a robbery, or because of racism, or a messy divorce, or is simply random and purely psychopathic, or whatever perceived "cause", the insanity will be the key to it.
If "the chap in England walking down the street covered in blood carrying a butchers knife who had just killed an Englishman" was insane, as you suggest, then whether he used the butcher's knife because his wife divorced him, or because he'd lost his job, or he was in the manic phase of his manic depression, or he did it "in the name of Allah", I don't see how it really alters or affects the fact that his victim lay dead and the perpetrator was insane.
If "the chap in England walking down the street covered in blood carrying a butchers knife who had just killed an Englishman" was sane, then you have a cold blooded terrorist murder on your hands.
I'd be very wary of explaining away the behaviour of the guy with the butcher's knife as being a victim of "mental illness" unless you are sure it's the case. Until it's shown to be so, we should treat what he did as a calculated terrorist atrocity.
