CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
More terrorism uncovered!

Well, not everyone who calls himself a Christian represents Christianity, right? The same is true for just about any ideology or belief system.

i don't recall anyone calling theirself a muslim if they were not truly muslim....
in our Bible, however, it is written that many will call themselves followers of the God of the Bible, yet under the scrutiny of Jesus Christ Himself, He will call them out on their false claims.

How would you know? Are you an expert in determining if someone is Muslim or not?
The Lord's Resistance Army says it is Christian. Other Christians say it isn't.
The Islamic State says it is Muslim. Other Muslims say it isn't.

Jesus, of course. The LRA was previously known as the United Holy Salvation Army and the Uganda Christian Army.

Jesus the Christ, the only begotten Son of the living God, the God of the living? They are followers of this Christ?
Based on what, specifically?

Rush Limbaugh said so. QED.
"Have you ever heard of Lord's Resistance Army, Dawn? How about you, Brian? Snerdley, have you? You never heard of Lord's Resistance Army? Well, proves my contention, most Americans have never heard of it, and here we are at war with them. Lord's Resistance Army are Christians. ... Lord's Resistance Army are Christians. They are fighting the Muslims in Sudan. And Obama has sent troops, United States troops to remove them from the battlefield, which means kill them."

I totally agree with you! What this beloved Christian did was certainly not murder, but righteous killing of the enemies of Christ because he was there to alieviate society of the worst kind of human beings. Just as you said, his actions are completely justified. If he had made it to a mosque and praised Jesus as he shot some Muslims, Jesus would still be cool with it.

Sure we can call this terrorism. Since it appears that there are many that won't let it go until everyone everyone adopts the PC position that "other groups can have terrorists too", I feel it's still fair to acknowledge the scale and magnitude differences between the variations of "terrorism" that exist so that we aren't deluding ourselves into thinking all forms of extremism are the same.
So...
I propose that we here at CF adopt a "severity scale" to rate these events as they occur. Ratings from 1=meaning mild to 10=meaning utterly brutal.
So, something like marching around with signs and yelling at people would be a 1
Something like creating such mass havoc that people feel the need to flee their homeland and move to other countries would be a 10.
Where on the 1-10 severity scale would this incident rank?
