No, but this is all through the Bible . People love to kill thinking they do God a service; John 16:2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.
We live in a time where people are doing this very thing, but look at the Bible at the people that thought to do this; Genesis 4:8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.
1 John 3:12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
Genesis 27:41 And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.
Malachi 1:3 And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.
Romans 9:13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
God hated Esau because of his desire to kill his brother.
Hebrews 12:16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
Luke 22:3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
Luke 22:47 And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.Luke 22:48 But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

This article isn't exploiting Steve's death. Steve died and it's reminding us that we all die. yes it is our belief as Christians that people will die.
I understand that this question is written deliberately as an attack against the methods of Christianity, but this has been written blindly. i used to be an Atheist too, and i was an Atheist who believed that people will die. when someone would die, it would further my belief that people do die. it just makes sense.
Hebrew 9:27 - "Man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgement. "

...no. It's sick. Steve Irwin is resting in peace, not burning in some lake of fire as this guy is suggesting.
I don't get angry about people who make up fictional stories...but making up a fictional story about a guy who has passed away and suggesting awful things is happening to him because he didn't follow a set of absurd beliefs while he was alive, but instead tried to educate kids about science and understand their environment is very very sick and stupid. This guy should shut his mouth.

Sure it's right. If someone dies and you can use their death so that others don't have to die then you are using something bad to bring about something good. Here's what they said at the end of the article.
"What does the death of Steve Irwin mean for us? It’s a reminder that we all need to repent of our sin so that we can be saved for eternity—because we all face death. As a witnessing opportunity at this time, point more of your friends/relatives to AiG’s website for answers to this important question—one that affects everyone’s eternity."

No, but it is about what I would expect out of Ken Ham.
And the only lesson his death teaches is that you should be real careful around dangerous animals, or you could get killed.

No. I get upset when preachers try to use a funeral service to convert people. Is God so weak that God needs to hook people when they are in an emotitonal state of mind?

Killing for your religious belief shows that you don't have a valid argument and you yourself belief you are wrong. Only failed religions/cultures would condone/allow such actions.

Nope, a living God.
No one has perished yet, not even Satan.
