Being religious has absolutely nothing to do with being moral. I'm an atheist and probably have a better moral compass than a good chunk of "Christians" [in quotes because a lot of people who call themselves that don't follow the teachings of christ, they just twist the bible to their own beliefs and are often incredibly hateful and selfish]. If you want to get rid of school shootings, get better mental help for the people who are likely to do it and ban guns. If the people who have that tendency are given the proper psychiatric treatment or are institutionalized if they are truly a danger to others even with treatment, then the problem wouldn't exist or wouldn't be nearly as bad. Do you know how many warning signs the V-tech shooter showed and how little action was taken to help him? And if guns were banned they would have to use knives or some other close-quarters weapon, and would be a lot less deadly and a lot easier to take down.
