Commentors at Atheist Overdose are getting their panties in a twist over this image, said to be his (now removed) Adult Friend Finder profile, and which is apparently alleged by Atheist Overdose staff themselves to be from TMZ:
But I wandered over to TMZ to check it out, and this is what they actually have posted:

| Maybe we could use this thread for non-gun-control discussion related to the Aurora shootings and James Holmes. (This earlier thread covers discussion of the gun issues.) |

Why does it matter? I mean besides some a-hole trying to make a slap at atheists/agnostics, why does it actually matter.
The guy was obsessed and no one caught it except for a gun range owner. And really, he couldn't do anything about it. There is no law against being odd. I'd be locked up if there was.
He hid it well like a good little sociopath. His high intelligence allowed him to make plans that worked very well.
If they really want to blame this on Agnosticism, then they should be prepared for the list of religious whackjobs of the Christian presuasion who have done evil things. David Koresh's Branch Davidians and the Army of God murders of abortion providers spring to mind. |

I've said similar about small cars with large tail wings or big horsepower showing off. (These are the after market wings that are supposed to keep the back end of the car on the ground. Particularly funny with front wheel drive cars.)
There was a car commercial which had a guy in a Lambroghini and a loudspeaker saying "I am compensating for my shortcomings." |

Exactly. Holmes had a mainstream Christian religious upbringing, and that did not have diddly-squat to do with this massacre. If he decided later to call himself an agnostic, that also has nothing to do with what he did. Almost certainly, the Aurora massacre was an act of delusional madness. Looking for logical causes or scapegoats is unlikely to be productive in this case. I've had more than one schizophrenic person explain to me their motivations, and I never could make heads or tails of what they were saying. I assume it all seems to make sense to them, though.
[Yet the "agnostic theory" kinda makes sense. They're like that. After all, agnostics are about the only people around that don't even disbelieve in a deity. Creepy.] |

I think it's safe to assume Holmes, unlike Markuze, will not be logging onto SFN to see us mocking him. Not that I've ever been on Adult Friend Finder, but as I recall, the only penis options they allow as input are "microscopic," "small/average," and "freakishly huge/deformed". |

He is young, white, male, and has post-baccalaureate education. All of these things are associated with less religiosity, so it wouldn't be unusual.

Is James Holmes an agnostic?
