The data on mass murder


Virginia Tech Shooter
Originally uploaded by Geo & VO.
Mass murder is often the first serious crime unbalanced individuals are caught committing --this is the case of the Virginia Tech shooter.

But since the Fall of Adam there have always been deranged individuals. If someone is determined to commit mass murder there is usually very little that can be done to prevent it.

(Curious: NBC must be the network of choice for homocidal maniacs.)

Most of the time these creatures can't be locked up, until it's too late. You see, in the USA it's not against the law to be crazy. It's certainly
not against the law to be an unsociable loner.

Wait, he mailed a package? What? --on his way to murder as many people as he could he dropped off a package at the Post Office?

My head is spinning.

But another thing, if you study history general purpose sociopaths don't issue manifestos, --there is some sort of ideology involved here. I need more data on this creature.

But this is the experimental data we do have:

32 are dead at Virginia Tech...50 million dead from Roe v. Wade...

Young Laotian delegate, Bangkok

Virginia is seen here giving a wristwatch to a young Laotian, who was a delegate to the Missionary Symposium in Bangkok; March 2007.

We always take California-donated gifts on every deployment so that we may bless others with whom we meet and interact.

Assemblies of God school--Bangladesh


Virginia and I found the source of the tiny pitter-patter at the AGE Center in Bangladesh: children who are attending class served by the Assemblies of God.

We were surprised to learn that Muslim parents also send their children to this Christian school. They enroll their children because of the quality of education, even though Christian principles and the gospel are taught to all students.

The AGE Center contains a triad: a Christian school, a Bible college, and an A.G. Church.

This campus is a little larger than our Jubilee Christian Center admin campus in San Jose, California.

An amazing interpretation by Jubilee Bible College student, Andrew Le, of a folk song in the Vietnamese language that gave glory to the risen Christ --on Easter Sunday.

I was amazed that this young man knew and could sing the old school traditional Vietnamese folk music style.

Andrew delighted the Vietnamese senior citizens seated in the sanctuary.
