FLORENCE, South Carolina (AP) -- A teen accused of plotting to blow up his high school told police that he wanted to die, go to heaven and kill Jesus, federal authorities said Tuesday.Ummm.....Oh....kay... :boggled:
Prosecutors argued in a federal courtroom that the statements are an indication that 18-year-old Ryan Schallenberger needs a psychological evaluation. Gee, ya think?

Do they have metal detectors in heaven?
Wouldn't Jesus just return to heaven once he's dead, which he already was?
Wouldn't god already know about his plan since he knows everything?
So many questions...

But where does he go for those traditional three days? Walhalla?

Frankly, I blame the video game Xenogears. I mean, I killed God and now I'm at UCLA. Imagine what this kid would have accomplished after actually killing God.

Yep, I think we just disproved one of my favorite Elvis Costello puns of all times.... " 'Cuz there's no such thing as an original sin."

That's one of the most original, and nuttiest, reasons to commit murder I've ever heard.

Ok, so he blows up the high school, dies, and then goes to _heaven_? Talk about getting your myths mixed up.
And why go after Jesus? Why not just go for the big guy?

Well, I can honestly say that's not something I ever expected to hear even in my wildest imaginings...
The cliche is true: Truth is stranger than fiction.
I hope he gets the help he needs.

Poor kid is nuts.
But, in such a twisted way....I think we should put "House" on the case.
The only thing is that he's SO nuts, there is great hope a good medication can help him.
I see him years from now saying "I was so NUTS I thought I could kill Jesus!"

Nuts or not, you have to congratulate the guy on his understanding of Christian ethics. His plan was to bomb a bunch of people to smithereens, secure in the knowledge that he'll still go to Heaven because he believes in Jeebus.

I thought character level did affect the gears somewhat.
OK, but seriously?
I know it's a JRPG, but you're going up against a planet-sized interplanetary weapon and you're expecting to fight it on foot when in every battle in the game against a giant enemy you get in the giant robots?
ARE YOU ON DOPE? :D

Pilate was the one who killed Jesus (NT version of history)
If he's been in a Pilates class (oh so clever pun) maybe he was learning how to act like a Pilate, and kill Jesus.
Yeah, explaining a joke does kill it, but perhaps it wasn't such a good joke in the first place. They can't all be gems.

Now, now, Darth. I thought it was a fine joke. I live for puns and I was actually surprised at there being no "Groan!" reaction.... but you know dem kids... what with their whatchercall video tube games and such. They just don't get word play like they used to.

Or, he wanted to be famous, infamous, or both.
The pursuit of fame seems to be an epidemic among a substantial portion of the population.
Or, he's simply lost in a haze of confusion.

Or both.
Notice how "infamous" has dropped from current use? Read an article yesterday that discussed the "most famous serial killer" - apparently only being famous matters, whether you came to attention for good or bad who cares - YOU'RE FAMOUS!

School Bomb Plotter Wanted To Kill Jesus
Well, he can't be all bad.
:duck:
Actually, if God exists, then killing Jesus is part of His plan, right? Also, since Jesus is God, killing Jesus really doesn't do much.
If humans really wanted to piss off God, they should protect Jesus from assassination.
Unless it was after his second coming, in which case it would be funny to launch an atom bomb at him and see if he's indestructible.
That would be hillarious to watch 100 megaton bomb completely incinerate an entire city full of millions of people gathered around him, then when the dust clears, Jesus is standing there in the middle of a 19 mile wide crater.
Or maybe he'd be in some other state or orbit after being blown there.
I'll bet that would be fun, to be the Second Coming Jesus and sit on a hydrogen bomb and go for a ride when it detonates.
Ooooh! We should make a cobalt bomb and completely destroy the Earth so Jesus and God can hang out with a ruined world...which they knew would eventually happen.
OMG I just thought of something. If and when Jesus next comes, we should do just that. Imagine the idiocy of God and Jesus sitting around laughing after the Earth and all humans are destroyed, knowing the whole multi-billion year exercise was doomed, but going through the motions anyway, just for the hell of it.
We can control this destiny! Who's with me, fellas?
