20. "why is it if iyou cite metallica or MM and murder someone you get death"
Why is it if you cite Metallica or Marylin Manson and murder someone you get death, but if you cite Jesus or God and murder someone you get life imprisonment or a mental institution?

To answer your question...I think it goes without saying that everyone knows those who kill because God told them to are truly crazy...both in their beliefs and their actions. Could it be that fanatical religious beliefs require a person to be crazy in the first place? would a rational human being hold such beliefs? I don't know.
