Family kills man that tried to watch the world cup

And of course religious fanaticism doesn't help people who are obviously somewhat mentally ill in the first place.

But strong ideology has a much more profound effect on people than those other mediums do.

But these people were part of that minority. I never made a broad, sweeping claim that all religious belief is dangerous.

Generalizations are rampant in this thread.

Why would you kill someone over a T.v. Program. :?

Beginning of Resident Evil 5? I think so!

Ignorance is indeed man's first enemy. If an atheist did the same thing should we say "This is what atheism do to people", I mean please how stupid does this sentence sound? GazaAli

Religious fanaticism is responsible, to a large degree, in this case. They killed him because he didn't want to watch the religious program.

Not to say that religion in general is dangerous, though.

This would probably happen to me if I tried to change the channel during the soap operas, it's just that I'm never taking that risk

.. Wait you actually watch the 700 Club? Pat Robertson is one crazy person.

wow the kids beat there father on fathers day... this is just cruel. there a stupid family. heres another reason why humans are the stupidest animal in the world.

Religion, nobody follows its rules these days. Thats what i dont get.

Not suprised.

And people think of football fans as violent - gospel is where its at these days.

[QUOTE="clayron"] I agree with you. Blaming this on religion is ridiculous. People in this thread are being insanely ignorant.clayron

They argument escalated to that level because of their strong feelings towards their ideology. Same thing can happen with other strong beliefs; even sports fanaticism, pointless as it may be. It's not so much strong religious fanaticism that's dangerous in this sense, it's fanaticism towards anything in general. It's not responsible (ultimately people are), but it can exacerbate initial problems within people.

Watch something that only comes around every what? 4 years?

Or watch something worthless like a religious show. I am sure if God existed he would not give a crap.

Yeah, that sums up my thoughts about the responses. But really that is pretty sick.

Not suprised.

Wow, this is such a sad and disturbing story. ]= I don't even know what else to say about it.

People who let religion take over and consume their life become like this. Pretty much anything you are obsessed with could make you like this.

Many people in this thread sound close-minded.

That's pretty terrible, crazy religious freaks.rcignoni

honestly... this planet sucks. killing your own father/husband over a tv show..

Religion isn't responsible for this. People out of their ****ing minds are.

I like how people here say they can't believe what religion does to people, and are saying the fact they wanted to watch a gospel show matters. Really, it was the Vuvuzela's that made them commit the murder

Despicable, violent, primitive morons beating up an innocent man. Its sad that this is just one of many that happens in the world.

Also 'Thou shalt not kill'.
