"Is Timothy McVeigh bound for hell? The fate of McVeigh's body is fixed: He is to die by lethal injection Monday morning [June 11, 2001] for perpetrating the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing that killed 168 people....The state of McVeigh's soul, though, may hang in the balance." (PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER) This article explores religious beliefs regarding the fate of McVeigh's soul and asks if people should follow the Christian tenet of praying for mercy from God for him.
