Gee, I wonder if Oklahoma City bomber and mass murdurer Terry Nichols had become an Episcopalian in jail—or, perhaps, converted to Islam—the holdouts on the jury would have reacted the same way. Somehow, I don't think so.

Oklahoma City bombing conspirator Terry Nichols may have been spared the death penalty for a second time because a jailhouse conversion to Christianity gained him sympathy from the jury, lawyers in the case said Saturday.

"Terry Nichols' belief in God is so firm that he believes if the [R]apture occurred today he is going to heaven," defense attorney Creekmore Wallace told jurors.

Tell me it's not a great country... And FTF.

NOTE What on earth does these people's belief in the Rapture have to do with God? I don't get it.
