Very interesting indeed! I read some of the last words you linked to the Texas Dept. of Justice and decided to scroll down to #1 and oh my! It just stopped me and I could hardly believe what he said, praising Allah

This post is very timely with the John Allen Mohammed (DC Sniper) being executed last night at 9:11 pm in VA. I remember having nightmares back in October of 2002, afraid of walking to the bus stop and filling up my gas tank. I knew that God is sovereign; however Mohammed’s choice to put a geographical area in fear was startling.

I’m still processing on how I feel about what happen night, and quite honestly I prayed that God would have mercy on his soul. Many lives were affected because of his actions, and God is sovereign over that as well.

Brittney, I wondered the same thing. I pray that many came to him. There seemed to be a number who professed faith.

One thing that struck me when reading this is how thankful we should be for the chaplains who serve those on death row. Clearly, a number of them mentioned their chaplains.

Thanks for posting this, Chris. Wow, daunting to read what people would say right before they know they will die. It is encouraging to see those that seem to have become believers while being in prison.
