Thats what Miss California said too in one of her interviews about her antigay marriage religious speech. Convenient isnt it?

Same reason people blame their parents or friends. They dont want to accept responsibility.

yeah if you find a hysterical woman who has just decapitated her own child and shes claiming the Devil told her to do it chances are she isnt making an excuse shes really freaking crazy. Sane people dont decapitate their babies.

I read the headliner and stopped. this woman needs to be electrocuted w/ about 100k/volts. The devil didnt make her do anything she is just a sick twisted bitch who doesnt deserve to be breathing the same air as the rest of us. By blaming the devil shes ultimately looking for an insanity defense. She wont get it in Texas.

So whats your excuse? The devil doesnt bother with those who dont believe in him. He already has them exactly where he wants them.

Well she probably has religious dementia which is an actual disease. I know I will probably get a thumbs down for this but it truly is caused from brain washing people into thinking everything is a sin. I know many Christians who are very open minded and would never condone violence in anyway but some people are very close minded and will beat their children for any sin they may commit. Children are brain washed into thinking its a sin to watch tv or to read anything but the bible play video games wear makeup or to feel sexual attraction to another person. Its really very sad and when the child grows up they go to extremes such as the horrendous act that you have wrote about.
