What caliber does God recommend?
Yet another asshole with a gun and a grudge, this time in Colorado. Good job by the volunteer security guard who killed the shooter - a woman (the guard, that is) who told reporters she was on the third day of a fast and who credited God with steadying her aim. We'll let that speak for itself.
But this toxic bouillabaisse that is fundamental Christianity in the Rocky Mountain West deserves a closer look. One of the shootings took place in Colorado Springs - home of the Air Force Academy, whose officers pestered male cadets to take some time off from raping female cadets to pray that Muslims and Jews burn in hell. Some of the victims are from the same New Life megachurch where the ineffable Rev. Ted Haggard preached before Mike Jones, the World's Busiest Male Prostitute, "blew the whistle" about their "affair" (in the words of New York Times Magazine). The same Mike Jones now says he tapdanced with Idaho Senator Larry Craig, who isn't even a little bisexual, thank you very much Mr. Nosy Parker Matt Lauer, just your average Methodist Republican homophobic married closeted anonymous gay sex-haver, like the ones who represent your state.
Guns? Rape? Jesus? Closeted gay sex? Weenie blue USAF uniforms? (sorry, gratuitous Navy insult)
What the hell are they feeding you people on the Front Range?

Your article is as ignorant as it is repulsive.
As someone who grew up in the Front Range (N Colorado) and an evangelical Christian, it is quite alarming how you use mis-information and stories of individual idiots to condemn an entire religion... not to mention the largest religion in our country.
If you had any idea what the "toxic bouillabaisse" of "Christianity in the Rocky Mountain West" has done for the region - made strong families, lots of service and humanitarian giving, many safe communities - then maybe you could have a leg to stand on.
And how do you leap the logical chasm between blaming Christianity for rapists at the Academy?? Or implying the Academy is to blame for the shootings in Colo Springs? Really, I bet you can do better at your condemnation-game.
Yes, there's plenty of hypocrites and fanatics in Christianity (as in any group) but please, get to know a few Christians and actually become the slightest bit familiar with the area your writing about before posting this crap.
Otherwise, your articles will continue to be embarrassingly... repulsively... ignorant.
