Quote (REC @ Feb. 17 2010,15:20) | I would also like to see the source for the quote. If I recall, it is a bit of an urban legend. The only reference I can find ascribes it to his evangelical father (who became famous for converting his son in prison, and spouting this crap). Nice way to cleanse the guilt, and find where to place the blame....
Quote | "His father Lionel Dahmer expressed Jeffrey’s rationale: "If it all happens naturalistically, what’s the need for a God? Can’t I set my own rules? Who owns me? I own myself." |
First Mention
The other reference I find is: Jeffrey Dahmer: The Monster Within, A&E Biography (1996). Which is 2 years after his death, many years after his 'conversion.' Maybe it contains footage prior to his death where he states this. Nonetheless, it is meaningless, retrospective, "I was lost and now am saved" horseshit from a dubious source. |
As did Pasteur, and Galileo, and everybody else who upset the applecart...
