    I agree with you. It was Zimmerman's plan all the way. Using an unseen figure in the sky as your excuse is really pathetic.

    Hello again,

    Do you remember the ScottGem/Fredg feud?? It was a barnstormer. It overlapped two websites. They HATED each other. And, it went on FAR longer than your piddly ole cat fight has.

    But, it's getting boring. I'd start cussing or threatening...

    I won't stop correcting people posting misinformation. One person just seems to thrive on doing it.

    No more than the Aetheists that get their panties in a knot over someone in the sky they claim doesn't exist.

    Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny don't exist either but you don't get as upset about those.

    If you are so secure in your belief there is no higher being... why get so upset if others actually do.

    I'm not upset about their beliefs... except they use it to justify killing someone.

    Lame... really lame... Not even Zimmerman is blaming it on god... how you read that into it is beyond me.

    The only justification he needed was Treyvon was physically assaulting him... End of story.

    You might have to quietly lay back and get beat to death or raped in Canada... but this happened in the USA and we have the legal right to defend ourselves... even if we have to kill our attacker to do it.

    Ok, explain it. People use that expression a lot, such as when a child dies.

    I won't dive into that silly debate, the jury has spoken and some have had a change of heart - after learning the facts from the trial and not the media.

    I guess words from the only surviving person from that encounter isn't as important as an opinion piece.

    I think it would be a waste of time trying... sort of like trying to teach trgonometry to special ed students.

    Particularly to an Aetheist.

    I only asked how it's a figure of speech. Why is that hard to answer?

    You have to grasp the concept of religion to see why Zimmerman wasn't blaming it on god... if you don't "get" religion.. you won't get what he was saying.

    And I'm not a missoinary trying to convert anyone.

    Its not unlike Karma... when things are predestined to happen.. . because of (fill in your reason). That's things are not totally random... and you only have a limited control of what happens or doesn't.

    Ever see the Final Destination series of movies?

    I gave the most important words, "the jury has spoken." In fact one juror said Zimmerman's heart was in the right place and she wouldn't mind him back on neighborhood watch, with his gun - “I think he’d be more responsible than anybody else on this planet right now” she said.

    I suppose if the "all God's plan remark was as important as you're trying to make it the prosecution should have hammered it home, but it amounts to nothing other than Zimmerman using a cliche that amounts to "oh, well" - not "God made me do it."

    The opinion piece was revealing, it isn't every day a journalist takes himself and his colleagues to task in such a manner. As he said, "It’s a case study in how the same kind of bias that causes racism can cause unwarranted allegations of racism."

    But then it's been perfectly clear to me that the left and the media accomplices are invested in fanning the racial flames whenever they can while shamelessly preaching the need for racial harmony and refusing to recognize reality.

    Depends on your beliefs... it can be mostly some other power.. they universe... luck... a lot of different stuff. For some its God... (or whoever is their god)... even some aetheists believe in predestination.
