Possibly from the same Christian principles as exhibited by the Chief Constable of Manchester in an apparent persecution of gay men in the 1990s. "God works in mysterious ways. Given my love of God and belief in Him and Jesus Christ, I have to accept that I may well be used by God in this way."
Sad how so many claim to work on "Christian principles" yet fail to miss so many fundamental ones.. Like not judging, staying out of other people's business/squabbles (Proverbs), letting God's servants serve Him (Romans 14:4) and so on.
God might use me to to shoot people named James Anderton (and Given my love of God and belief in Him and Jesus Christ, I have to accept that I may well be used by God in this way), but that doesn't mean I should go and buy a gun just yet. Wait for the call to do so, then act rather than acting on the possibility (hrm, seems somehow reminiscent of this case...).
