This debate has ended. You can no longer add arguments or vote in this debate.

what should I do in Court on Friday?

so when I call myself Demon Hunter, people, I ain't playin'. Part of my pact with God after He saved me was to hunt and destroy Evil, usually propagated by Satan and His Legions, wherever i find it. or them. and I do this, though i know full well most of you wont believe me. that's OK. but now I am facing some legal repercussions on something I did two months ago. I found out where a local chapter of the CoS meets, from a guy who works out at my Gym here. it was an old warehouse on the outskirts of town by a cement factory in the Industrial District. a guy who works at the place during the day and was a member of the CoS arranged this as a meeting hall. I think they call them Grottos.
 anyway I arsoned it! burned it down with homemade Molotov cocktails one night, a couple months ago. I did a good job as I totally destroyed it, but I screwed up and was seen by an on-site rent-a-cop as I was leaving the premises. Now i have a court date for arson. I am wondering if I should be contrite with the judge or stand firm and admit that as a Man of God and a Demon Hunter (I won;t use that exact term) that I am on a God-ordained quest to rid the world of evil wherever I can.
 my attorney (who btw is my wife's brother) is advising me to go the apologetic route, and claim a sort of temporary emotional imbalance, by saying a past family memeber of mine was raped by Satanists a few years ago. (this is a true story).
 but I'm not sure of this strategy. what do you think? honest answers only please. mockers or trolls will be banished, as I have not time for it. god bless.

at least you properly spell your god with a small g ... very appropriate for you ... indeed In whom the god of this age has blinded the minds of them who believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them ... 2 Corinthians 4:4

Proverbs 14:11

Side: Listen to your attorney, dummy

Apparently you have already confessed to such deed and have been adjudicated; I would apologize, acknowledge the wrong doing and ask for leniency. Don't go holy-rollering to the judge; he may be an atheist, or Muslim and have you dangled by your toes and roasted over a fire.

Side: Listen to your attorney, dummy

thanks...this is what my attorney basically has said. as far as leniency my attorney is working on that and he may settle with the Prosecutor before court begins. right now he said I am looking at a fine and community service (which I can do with my Church!) and 2 yrs. supervised probation. my only other offense on record is a DUI three years ago and an assault four years ago. both misdemeanors. what will help me is that the CoS has been implicated with some vandalism on christian churches over the past couple years. plus that assault on my family member, though that was done by another Grotto.

btw...I found justice for the assault. in my own way. never was caught.

oddly, my attorney has told me that he found out the judge's daughter is a huge fan of my band!

god bless

No way would someone get only a 2 year supervision order for an arson that destroyed a whole building in the UK. I am assume that this is the same in the USA and you havent done your background research for this character.

Your attorney is basically saying you should plead insanity. Just be honest. State the truth exactly as you have stated it here, and they'll probably put you in a mental ward which is much better than prison, good hospital quality food and a real bed, real toilets with normal plumbing, easy access to showers, lounge, books and games.

Be sure the prosecuting attorney sees this post, and then plead insanity. You might get to be zombie out in a mental ward for a term.......oh yeah, almost forgot about the wonderful drugs they have now for mental cases...there's an anti depressant which will have the same effects of euphoria which is kind of a mix between marijuana and cocaine euphoria feelings without the intensity of coke and without the time/space/reality distortion effects of marijuana, and the anti-psychotic meds are powerful relaxers to mellow you out......, and that is a much better place to be instead of prison. You should be in prison, but in our looney tune society you can probably get a hand slap of being institutionalized in a mental ward for a shorter time than what you really deserve for what you did.

You are quite insane, and dangerous, so just be honest and tell the judge exactly what you have stated here, have your attorney try to get you in a mental ward instead of prison where you really belong.

The guy's a psychopath, brags about how he got vengeance outside of the law against somebody who raped a cousin or something like that and didn't get caught...whatever he did, he says he got away with it. He was going to blow his brains out and then had a hallucination of a burning curtain that didn't burn but gave him a revelation of fire to keep him from blowing his brains out, now he's burning down buildings where occult groups gather and trying to get off with community service? This guy is probably going to kill some people on purpose or by accident if he hasn't done it already. The guy needs to be locked up.......now he think's he's on a mission from God to fight evil? bragging he would have gotten away with the arson accept for "rent a cop"? The guy needs to be locked up for the maximum allowed by law for the arson he did. No telling what he got away with and what else he thinks he can get away with when he feels he needs to destroy the evils in the world.

Side: Stand for your Convictions!

You committed arson and arguably attempted homicide. At best I'd say wanton disregard for human life and premeditated arson.

Hope for a lenient judge who just sticks you with a very heavy fine and probation, and realize how stupid that was.

Side: Listen to your attorney, dummy

Attempted homicide? Nothing of the sort. We made sure the building was vacant. But yeah I was stupid. Not for torching the Den Satan, but for getting caught. I parked too close to the factory. Shoulda parked further out and hoofed it into the place a couple miles. And had my cocktails already planted there so I wouldn't have to lug them in.

I will be more careful next time.

My my.

First, I had no idea what CoS meant. I had to look at about a dozen web definition links before I came across Church of Satan.

Second, what should you do on Friday? Well, if you are truly a warrior on behalf of Jesus Christ you shouldn't hide that fact. The disciples and martyrs and such all proudly proclaimed why they believed what they did and then did what they did. Of course that probably would mean conviction for you.

Third, I can honestly say I am uncomfortable with endorsing what you did in any way. And that's not to say I don't believe in taking action for what's right, or that something or someone could be so terrible deserving to be destroyed. Oh yes, they can be. It's because I don't fully trust that the reality you perceive is actual reality, because...

1) Too many people who are Church of Satan, or Wicca, or Goth, or in someway contrary to Judeo-Christian beliefs are just rebels goofing around or misfits wanting to belong to something different. Salem MA, not far from where I live, is famous for the old witch trials and now has tons of tourism and shops related to witches as well as some locals who claim to be Wicca. Having met some while being a tourist I'm not struck by those people as being evil, just that they're geeks.

2) You had no way to know whether anyone's life would be jeopardized by setting that fire, nor whether the owner of the property knew what it was allegedly being used for.

3) I believe in Civil Rights, including freedom of religion, and believe it or not that also means people have a right to be Satanists or Wicca or Church of the Spaghetti Monster followers, too.

4) This is the type of behavior analogous to a mother drowning her kids because she was oh so sure they were all possessed by devils.

Sorry.

I agree with many of your views on the Bible, and I agree there are times to stand up and fight for something. But I can't agree with arson and vigilante justice.

Side note: I'm not completely convinced this story is true. Seems to me if you are suspected of arson you'd probably be in jail awaiting trial instead of at home surfing CreateDebate.

Side: Stand for your Convictions!

I can safely say the is true. Or I wouldn't have posted. Why make it up? It sure doesn't cast me in a good light. I'm not at home but at work most of the time I lost here. I do own and run a CrossFit Box. So when I'm not on the floor working with clients or training I'm here behind the counter. Off and on I can surf CD.

I spent one night in jail before my business partner and friend and my band manager out up bail. Also I did not plead guilty as somebody earlier assumed.

I agree in heart with what you say, I am tempted to stand up for my convictions that as a Christian, and one who had a family member assaulted by these bastards, I felt it my god given right to destroy one of their sanctuaries. Especially one that was illegally operated. But my attorney is telling !e this is a bad attitude to present to his Honor.

it's not the job of a christian to "rid the world of evil" .... (Jesus: allow the wheat and tares grow together - Mt 13:30) .... it's a Christian's job to live / preach and teach the truth of the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ .... however since you believe the scripture to be myths / fables / contradictions and lies .... well, you're pretty much on your own .... within the parameter of Satan's grip indeed ... so sad / too bad .... dad :)

Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and they will reign with him for a thousand years.

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the people of old received their commendation.

And through his faith, though he died, he still speaks. By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death, and he was not found, because God had taken him. Now before he was taken he was commended as having pleased God. ...
