Bin Laden dies from typhoid?

[the Jester]

He is a human being. And humans can make mistakes and realize the error in their ways.

That sure would be nice, in this case. Man! Just think- if OBL recanted, what would his minions do? Might he be able to convince some, perhaps many, of them that they were in the wrong?

*ponders*

And people said the CIA's efforts to recruit and train microbes were wasted!

Kill him, and if they're lucky, stage his death as if he died a martyr. And then someone else will step in his place.

And you wonder why I'm so disappointed at my own species.

He is a human being. And humans can make mistakes and realize the error in their ways. Either way, I pray for his soul and every other soul on this Earth every night.

Mistakes? That's an extremely poor choice of words.

Folks, I should not have to state that the moral nature of the man's deeds are not appropriate for discussion here. This thread exists for it's news content, not for discussion about whether a man should die, or the state of his soul. If people can't contain it to newslike discussion, we'll just close this and be done.

Hatred is an easy emotion to embrace. But forgiveness is what it means to be human. If everyone on the planet realized this, the world would definetely be a better place. I know not everyone feels the same way.

A wise man once said, 'To err is human, to forgive is divine.' I forgive him.

Edit: Umbran, I'm sorry if I started something I shouldn't have. If this or my other post is offensive, please feel free to delete them.

We won't know for sure until we have definitive proof.

He's been "dead" HOW many times already?

No, forgiveness is what it means to be enlightened or divined.
