Psst! Hey, Dena! This is the Lord thy God. I was recently tending to your Brother in Christ, Edwin, about the abomination that was his eight-year-old son’s foreskin (See Circumcision… It’s Not Just For Mohels Anymore!) when I noticed that your 10-month-old daughter is just chock full o’ Satan. Yes, I know, little Margaret is awful cute. But even the very young can be consumed with such sin that they are offensive to Me. Now, now, don’t cry, Dena. There is a simple solution to this problem. It looks like all of the sin is concentrated in Margaret’s tiny little arms. Dena, do you recall the Gospel of My Son as written by Matthew?…
McKINNEY, Texas (AP) – A mother who admitted killing her baby daughter by severing the girl’s arms was guided by a Bible passage in which Jesus refers to cutting off body parts to cast away sin, the woman’s attorney said Tuesday.
Dena Schlosser, a 35-year-old housewife with a history of mental illness, has referred to the New Testament passage since the killing of 10-month-old Margaret, attorney David Haynes told The Associated Press.
In the Book of Matthew, Jesus says: ‘If thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.’
Schlosser was charged with capital murder Nov. 22, after she told a 911 operator she had cut off her baby’s arms.
Police found her in the living room, covered in blood, still holding a knife and listening to a hymn.
Haynes said Schlosser was mentally ill at the time.
Yes, I know, there are plenty of sociopathic whackaloons who don’t attribute their pathology to Jesus. They just don’t amuse me as much.
