The issue I think many here have with Dalmer is we are juding ourselves by
ourselves pitting one of us above another, but if all have sinned and all of us are
falling short, than the best among us is in as much trouble as the worse. I suppse

Originally posted by UllrIt's the craziest of all the religions. The West thiks of itself as a superior culture, but as long as Christianity is the root religion they remain in the stone age. You can see why groups like the KKK identify with Christianity. Be like us or Burn in Hell is the motto.
That's one hell (no pun intended) of a fantastic religion.
Dahmer will get eternal life.
I will not.
Dahmer lured people to his apartment then cut them up into pieces and ate them.
I chose not to be a Christian.
If there is an eternal, all powerful, all knowing being. He simply cannot be that stupid.

Originally posted by RBHILLI'm sure it was bad news. A petty angry God is a wacked out God, and anyone should know that. Common sense should be enough to see the error here. Don't paint a pretty picture at times about the nature of your God and then point out that He is a monster waiting to erupt so you better get Saved before it's to late. It's like having a cruel, mean Dad around the house, and you are scared out of your mind that he is going to blow up over the next sin.
you should read what he did to cain

That said, it does not matter it is Jesus
Christ's righteousness you need to be equal too, not mine or simply say you are
better than Dahmer!
First of all, I never suggested that I need to simply say I am better than Dahmer.
Second, so jesus was supposedly perfect and we can't every reach his stature? However that is what we have to equal to this trend, but the trend appears to be there from the christians I have met.
Again, you are still comparing yourself to Dahmer, it does not matter how good
or bad you are among people if all people have fallen short. Being the best of
a bad selection only means that, it does not make one good. What makes us good
before God, is God giving us His righteousness, because none of us are good
enough on our own. If any of us wants to proclaim they are good enough, than
that will be shown for what it is in the end.

Originally posted by buckkyI watched an interview with him, he seemed quite rational, although admittedly his reasons for killing and eating people were not what one could describe as 'normal'. It seems that serial killers, like him, like Dennis Rader for example, have a compelling force which they simply cannot control, Radar even stated that he felt like a monster, that he demonic. I have thought about it and i have kind of come to the conclusion that their conscience simply does not function. Its not like they repress it or anything, or they dont know what they are doing is wrong, it simply does not function as a mechanism to prevent their actions. This coupled with a fantasising, in which the fantasy is so lucid that it becomes a reality leads them to commit horrific acts.
Dahmer was screamingly insane. Any decision he might of made has to be filtered through an insane mind.
