will the events in Norway,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,?

Well for one thing "all" people are capable of murder.Regardless of so called religious affiliations.

Actually, as details come out we learn more about this guy. He was a neo-nazi and Nordic traditionalist (much like Hitler) who only claimed to be a Christian (again, much like Hitler). Christianity had nothing to do with the killing.

If you want something more likely as the cause than Christianity, you might note that he was a fan of the TV show Dexter which is about a serial killer. So, obviously, viewing violent television shows ought to be banned because it leads to mass murder.

Why would, or should it?

Fundamentalism in ANY form, is destructive, violent and savage. And there are no more violent fundamentalists, than religious ones.

Which is why ALL religions must be tossed onto the ash-heap of history if mankind is to make any real and significant advances.

Re- Dustinthewind - here we go with the conspiracy theories already. "It's all a conspiracy to discredit fundamentalists".

The murders of abortion doctors and bombings of abortion clinics in the USA are already sufficient evidence of the brutality and stupidity of some "Christians".

no they will not even come close to doing this. I am sorry they had been horundious tragidies but they will not start a war and frankly pale in comparison to 9/11

Hopefully, it will serve to highlight the dangers of all kinds of religious fundamentalism and political demagoguery.

All extreme beliefs risk leading to extreme actions.

Not while Christians and Muslims retain their god fantasies

He did it for some belief I am guessing. Not sure what it was exactly but I hope they find out.

Last tweet he left was this.

Honestly however something about all this is fishy. There were reports of a american face book page made of him which some one had an initial screen shot of it and no religous valus posted then suddenly the page changes to show conservative christian like some one went in and modified it. Lot of people smell a stink bomb.

quote follows:

I saved the FB page at 00.42 GMT 23d July and it was an English version of the first screenshot seen here.

I've 'screen captured' it using Windows' snipping tool. Check it out.

The second FB page shown here is completely different."

That's it, Benjie. That's the Google translated FB page I saw yesterday shortly afer Breivik was named as the suspect. All of the FB control buttons appear on this page and the blue is the same shade all across. The second, with Christian and Conservative added, is a fake."

Some were saying he was also natzi so the whole thing smells fishy to me. People editing face book pages ect.

I smell propaganda warfare and it pisses me off.

Anyone who does such an act is crazy. No matter their religion or lack of religion. Terrorists do not represent an entire faith. They're just lunatics.
