Throughout its history, despite being a so-called religion founded on Jesus Christs teaching to love all humanity, Christianity has been responsible for millions of deaths and the threat of god-approved extinction of non-believers, the wrong kind of Christians, and whichever group church leaders targeted. There is biblical precedence for killing in gods name permeating the so-called Old Testament, but it is not featured in the Christian New Testament except during the end times when Jesus Christ kills off the segment of humanity that refuses to be his disciples. In the criminal justice system, god would be guilty of criminal solicitation to commit murder for commanding, encouraging or requesting other people to engage in specific conduct (homicide) which would establish his complicity in its commission or attempted commission. According to the law, it is immaterial that the actor fails to communicate with the person he solicits to commit a crime if his conduct was designed to effect such a communication.
In 21st Century America, there is a growing segment of the population that believes they are biblical gods surrogates, and since he is incapable of verbally commanding his followers to commit murder on his behalf, extremist evangelicals are doing his bidding and are guilty of criminal solicitation. And, they are soliciting for murder with veritable impunity because this is America and no human being, particularly a human associated with the government, dare investigate so-called pro-life advocates calling for the murders of Planned Parenthood personnel.
A little over a month ago after an anti-abortion group released heavily-edited and contrived videos of a Planned Parenthood doctor discussing donations of fetal tissue for medical research after pregnancy terminations, a rash of criminal solicitations for murder began appearing all over the Internet. One specifically ominous warning on Fox Nation said, Ill pay ten large to whomever kills Dr. Deborah Nucatola. Anyone. Go for it. The intended victim is the senior director of Planned Parenthood who was secretly filmed in one of the edited videos.
Another threat was lodged at the CEO, Cate Dyer, of the biomedicine company doing the medical research using fetal tissue. The threat said, The CEO of StemExpress should be hung by the neck using piano wire and propped up on the lawn in front of the building with a note attached. The solicitation of murder was accompanied with Dyers home address and a handsome offer of ten grand to whomever beats me to her house. The violent warning that Dyer must die ended the solicitation to kill an American citizen because of where she works. A legal complaint was filed in California district court by the National Abortion Federation (NAF), but since the criminal solicitation originated with rabid evangelicals, nothing can possibly happen because freedom of religion.
