"I am glad George Tiller is dead," Wiley Drake, the SBC's former second vice president, said on his Crusade Radio program June 1, ABP reported.

Drake, who’s pastor of First Southern Baptist Church in Buena Park, Calif., called Tiller “a brutal, murdering monster" and said he is "grateful to God" that the physician is no longer around, ABP reported.

Drake called Tiller "a reprobate" and a "brutal, arrogant murderer" who "bragged on his own website how many babies he had killed,” ABP reported.

"I, for one, am a happy camper," Drake said. "I am glad,” APB reported.
Tiller was gunned down Sunday while serving as an usher at his church in Wichita.

Scott Roeder, 51, who was arrested several hours after the shooting, was charged Tuesday with first-degree murder.

No wonder why people are leaving religions by the thousands. Burn in Hell, Wiley Drake. Tell Scott Roeder "Hi" for me while you're down there.

Rodger, do you feel the same way about churches that teach young children to hate other religions and peoples? Should those teachers also die?

I don't condone murder, but I can't help but think, if you saw someone trying to take a baby's life would you do anything to prevent it? What if it were your baby? Or would you pretend it just wasn't happening?
