Is DC Sniper Working for Jesus?
Many think that the Beltway Sniper is your basic deranged lunatic. Many Baptists would disagree with that assessment, though.
"We believe that the killer was probably associated with a conservative Christian church at one time in his life," said Pastor Deacon Fred. "How else would he know how to shoot a gun so well? Some wagging tongues have claimed that he can't still be a Christian if he is killing folks, but they need to put down their Washington Post and pick up a Bible. The Lord is always full of fresh ideas about who to kill next!"....
Police officers revealed last week that the killer left a calling card, which implied that he was doing the work of the Lord. A Landover Baptist officer commented, "He must be a little confused, if he is in fact, a Christian. Every red-blooded American Baptist knows that while man is called upon to stone a sinner here and there, running around killing a whole bunch of folks is the Lord's business (Unless, the Lord has promised you a bunch of towns, like He did to the Israelites when they came out of the desert. In that case, you can slaughter all the men, women and children in each town with gusto and impunity!). You see, God is the expert on wholesale slaughter and this sniper could never duplicate the pure terror and panic, that God unleashes upon people who needle Him."
Well, I suppose that would explain the Crusades, then, wouldn't it??
