You got to be joking right?
VICTIMS OF THE CHRISTIAN FAITH
IN CONTRAST, the what . . . 1-3% of SO CALLED "Christians" EVER IN 2,000 YEARS who committed any kind of atrocity IN ANY KIND OF CONTEXT--whether provoked, or not--such a minority of SO CALLED "Christians" 100%
THE FACT REMAINS THAT SO CALLED "CHRISTIANS" IN THE WORST EXAMPLES OF THE HISTORY OF SO CALLED "CHRISTIANITY"
HAVE NEVER AND DO NOT CURRENTLY
come remotely close to
the extent; the percentages; the proportionality
of the efforts, beliefs of the Jihadis; of the world's atheists; (and some would contend of the Hindus) in mayhem; brutality; death; torture; gore etc.

I find Michael Yon and this report to be extremely credible.
But I bet more people on this site would believe it some Iraqi had said that U.S. or British troops were doing this.
Sad really... :shk:

Yon told WND he reported what he was told – no more or less. "Perhaps it's urban legend. I have no idea. But my reporting was spot on. ... I quoted someone and offered zero opinion," he said.

I don't see any reason to not believe the story, given the history of what al Qaeda has done, it doesn't seem farfetched at all.
Allowing one's self to realize that such horrors are real . . . would mean that one's assumptions were flawed . . . INDEED . . . WRONG!

I doubt every important historical event in the history of the world was recorded on tape for your personal review, nefermore.
I find the source credible and don't think he'd have reported it if he didn't think the story was factual. Absent any evidence that it is untrue, I give the benefit of the doubt to the story.
That's not saying that it shouldn't be taken without a grain of salt, but it shouldn't be just so easily dismissed either as you and many others are trying to do.

But that's not what this is about. This sort of goings on from the founding of the belief system is a kind of glorying in brutal gore--and a kind of vengeful rubbing the worst sort of hideous gore in the faces of the victims' closest relatives.

Well I would contend Bo that you really aren't reading the full text of my posts at this stage.
I didn't describe his opinion as a total crock of rubbish. If I was going to do that I would have said so. I referred to a section of text and described it as a crock of rubbish, because of the context it was put in and the reason it was there. Of course you can try and deliberately mis-quote me and put your spin on it if you want, but that would be crassly ignorant.
And please...this "religion of peace" nonsense - its old hat.
Isn't christianity supposed to be a peaceful religion?
If so how do you explain the crusades,
Here Here!!!!!

I'm going to repeat myself here, in big loud Bo Xian type text
HITLER WAS A CHRISTIAN.
neformore:
And I will also add
Tomas de Torquemada was a Christian.
So excuse me while I roll around the floor in agony at your continued ignorant insistence that Christianity is lily white
and refuse to bow to your assertions that all muslims are maniac killers that support death and destruction and will willingly serve and work for people who - allegedly - baked their children.
This;

Is a total and complete crock of rubbish. Its laughable to the point where you would - with your hysterically sarcastic writing style - be rolling on the floor laughing ontop of a bed of nails whilst undergoing open heart surgery to repair the valves you just burst from laughing too much.

NO. YOUR ASSERTION IS ABSURDLY FALSE TO THE MAX.
My statement was soundly historically and proportionally ACCURATE, FACTUAL, TRUE.
Your off the wall assertion has not a leg to stand on.
That you can even imagine otherwise is a brazen indication of the quality of your reading and being informed vs being misinformed.
Such facts have been documented extensively. I'm not overly eager to dig all that up. You don't seem to be overly impressed with facts, anyway. And that's evidently even when they register any where close to accurately on your cognative perceptions.
If you really want to know the truth about that--you are plenty bright enough to search it out. You may, however, need to go to 7/11 and buy a few cases of fair-mindedness.
PLEASE NAME ANY OTHER RELIGION
WHO'S FOUNDING DOCUMENTS exhort most vividly such brutal gore, mayhem etc.
Please name any other philosophy, system of thought [except maybe Communism and Nazism] which advocate such ruthless TOTAL EXTERMINATION OF ALL
OUT-GROUP individuals and groups.
The founding documents of the Jihadi's are so.
Christianity is NOT so. Has NEVER BEEN SO even at it's worst.
DENIAL OF THE FACTS IS THE OPPOSITE OF DENIAL OF IGNORANCE.
