Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold left no answers in their wake, and the opportunistic churches in the area had their chance—just as the media had theirs—to claim they could provide the answers people sought.
Oct 25, 2017 · Talking to aggressive atheists can be enjoyable and fulfilling if you have an intelligent and creative spiel. I was talking to an atheist builder who had a pop at me for being a Christian. He declared boldly: “I’m on the side of science and not religion.”. I was straight in there.

Until January of 1998, Eric Harris and Dylan Kleboldlived fairly normal lives. Klebold, a Colorado native, was noted for his shyness and intellect.

From the outside, the massacre at Columbine High School looks...
Compared with Harris and Klebold’s ambitions, the Columbine High School attack was a complete failure. Originally planned for April 19 — the anniversary of the Waco Siege and the Oklahoma City Bombing — the attack, Harris hoped, would beat Timothy’s McVeigh’s body count in Oklahoma.
