Agnosticism and Atheism: 0
Religion: 1

Not that I'm keeping score or anything, but when was the last time an atheist or agnostic do something like this simply because of his or her lack of faith. Matter of fact, I will keep score.

Perhaps the title should be "Nut discovers religion, finds a reason in the Bible to stab his mother because of his new faith".

Curious: which religious observance was he citing when he committed this crime? Juste pour savoir.

It was Christianity. He told his mother that "she didn't accept Jesus." So he decapitated her.

Whatever happened to "you shall not kill"? And why are so many crazy people crazy in a Christian flavor?

google the words "gold told me to" and pretty much the whole top 50 - with the exception the usual top 3 of wiki, imdb, you tube and the story in the Wrexham and Flintshire Leader of Trinidadian footballer Marvin Andrews who claims god told him to join Wrexham Football Club - are stories of god inspired murder.

my personal favourite comes in at number 4 tho

Just another case of "God works in mysterious ways", I guess.

Or, perhaps it was God's will, as many like to say.

Or, he just always wanted to try out that sword..
