May I respectfully request that you read the whole story before dismissing him as a threat? This is not a guy who just needs some anti-depressants. This is a guy whose behavior is disturbing and obsessive. If, after reading this, you still believe him to be a completely sane person, I will be quite surprised.

I agree with the "report him" comments. Please do. If you don't, and then he hurts himself or worse, someone else, you'll wish you had.

That's what I was thinking. I don't go to church for the same reason that the person doing the chiding doesn't go to mosque or synagogue.

I was just wondering how Shook feels now that a study has come out saying atheists and agnostics generally know more about religion than believers do. Egg on his face?
