Captured school shooter's motivation: Get into Heaven, then kill Jesus. That's a way better reason than: Jocks and cheerleaders are assholes.

Well, jocks & cheerleaders are assholes. It goes with the territory.
The kid has an interesting, perhaps even laudable plan but alas, I see a fatal flaw in it. If my interpretation of Scripture is correct, you don't get into Heaven for blowing up a school; not even if it's just the jocks & cheerleaders part of it. So, he'd never get within pistol range of The Naz, anyway.
I agree, he needs to have a mental evaluation and then taught to think critically.

From the CNN article:
| Prosecutors argued in a federal courtroom that the statements are an indication that 18-year-old Ryan Schallenberger needs a psychological evaluation. |
Gee, you think so...

Why, if he was told/connned that Heaven and Jesus are real, why is he insane?
He may not get into Heaven on merit, but after he takes out St. Peter and gets the keys off him, Jesus better watch out. |
