Attack of the Theocrats!
I had a post deleted on the Guardian thread - I don't know why, I didn't swear or anything - asking in all seriousness whether if someone like Thomas Hamilton, who killed 17 people in the Dunblane school massacre, were to claim they did it because they sincerely believed God told them to do it, Craig would commend them for speeding the little children on their way to heaven.
I'm not trying to make a sensationalist or bad taste point here. It seems to me to be the logical conclusion of Craig's own argument. Any fundamentalist has a right to commit mass murder.
He's practically inciting it.
