Poor Pluto. That's got to be bad for its self-esteem.
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah. I think we talked about this case before, but her plea of "Guilty, unless he rises from the dead" is new.

It's a weird case. If he doesn't come back, she accepts that her actions led to his death and she'll testify against the others. But she's still sure he's coming back. Poor woman.

I missed the earlier talk I guess. Yeeps. That's going to freak me out for days.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Over an "amen?" Seriously? Dayum.

legal experts say her extreme faith doesn't make her criminally insane.
Well I totally agree with that. I don't think religion should be an issue in determining mental competence.

If my extreme faith leads to the same results as someone else's insanity with a similar lack of agreement with conventional right and wrong, though?
This Ricola better work. The Chloraseptic I gravitated towards had saccharin. But it looked more convincing.

I think there is a difference between not being able to distinguish between right and wrong and knowing you are doing something wrong according to the law or socially accepted morality, but are justifying it due to religious faith.
If a religious fanatic plants a bomb that kills someone and justifies it with his or her faith would that person be allowed to plead insanity? It shouldn't be any different than murdering a toddler.
