    I bet grandmothers will be the next nobel.

    Christian people seem to have forgotten the bible, where their god kills and order to kill babies:

    “I will dash them one against another, even the father and the sons
    together, saith the Lord: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy, but
    destroy them” (Jer. 13:14).

    “As I listened, god said to the others, 'Follow him through the city and
    kill, without showing pity or compassion. Slaughter old men, young men and maidens, women and children....” (Ezek. 9:5-6).

    “Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy everything that
    belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys” (1 Sam. 15:3).

    Do you really think that a god that does and orders such things, will worry about a fetus?
    Elemental Watson!

    Hopefully some ragheads have plans for the Nazi owned Vatican City.
