Maybe some peoples, but not all. Human nature doesn't fly hijacked 747s into buildings.

Sorry but they are part of nature. Human beings are among the very few species who will fight with each other for no reason and probably the only ones with the propensity toward hatred and cruelty.
Atheist, agnostics, Gnostics and religious zealots alike.

This guy was apparently a religious hater. For what it's worth

this deviant was a religous HATER.
And other kids who shot up schools - didn't have anything to
do with religion at all.
It had to do with mental illness.

White House Immediately Politicizes Oregon Shooting, Calls For More Gun Control
Umpqua Community College, the site of the massacre, already bans guns on campus property.School policy bans the possession of firearms on campus property. A cached web page of the school’s safety and security policy, pictured below, states that “[p]ossession, use, or threatened use of firearms…on college property…is prohibited.”One security guard on campus,,,unarmedso, there ya go, Tiam - I guess it was you who was "stepping over bodies" on your way to
wrongsville.

Yes. I'll agree he had to be mentally ill in order to believe it was acceptable to go to a school and blow people away. Regardless of being an atheist or not, that was morally reprehensible.
But at the same time, you cannot look at this man's actions and blame it on mental illness, while at the same time looking at all the horrible atrocities committed by devoutly religious individuals and simply wave it off as something else entirely. To me, and many others, religious fervor is a mental affliction which causes individuals to behave immorally.
Even the American Psychological Association classifies religious belief as a form of mental illness.
Religion is a mental illness
-
"According to the American Psychological Association (APA), a strong and passionate belief in a deity or higher power, to the point where it impairs ones ability to make conscientious decisions about common sense matters, will now be classified as a mental illness.
The controversial ruling comes after a 5-year study by the APA showed devoutly religious people often suffered from anxiety, emotional distress, hallucinations, and paranoia. The study stated that those who perceived God as punitive was directly related to their poorer health, while those who viewed God as benevolent did not suffer as many mental problems. The religious views of both groups often resulted in them being disconnected from reality."

There's plenty of murders that people justify using a twisted interpretation of religion...
There's plenty of murders that have nothing to do with religion...
Is this really worth talking about? If the loser was religious he would still be a twisted screwed up loser.

Many religious people adopt a very strong moral code which makes them better, happier people.
Going around and telling them that they're all mentally ill is stupid. Plenty of genocides and mass-killings have nothing to do with religion, if you look at history.

Jblu - when you leave off the qualifier, which makes fine sense to most any folks,
and spout off about "religion is a mental illness"...
it just makes you look stupid, and a jerk. The quote invalidates what you claim. That isn't a good thing.

... I'm... I'm so lost. I can't tell if this was constructed to be an insult or if you're genuinely not understanding that its possible to have a thread like this (in this subsection, no less) - yet not blame 'liberals' for everything....?
I just read that back to myself and realized that is incomprehensible for you. So.... moving on.
Mental health. It needs to be at the forefront for presidential candidates at this point. Nevermind the queers getting married or PP for the moment.

He needs to quit using these high profile mass murders to try and push his gun control agenda. 300+ million people in the country, less than 500 die in mass shootings. These shootings are ugly, and that causes the gun opposition to use a disproportionate response.
