  • 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.

I trust that He won't allow it in front of, me so I have no need to consider your question.
You are the one saying Christians should not resist violence. You have acknowledged Christians have been murdered and it is not too far a stretch to suggest they have witnessed murders as well. If your moral system cannot address this scenario it is insufficient.
Not having read it from a Christian perspective doesn't preclude me from knowing anything about it.

What do you know about the history of warfare or violence in the Western world? Anything?
Not much, besides it being a mostly an East African/Indian ocean blight.
There is plenty of info about it on the computer, if you need to know more.
Do you know that Muslim Arabs did slave raids into Europe where they captured Christian women and brought them back to their countries to be sold into Harems for Islamic rulers? Do you still think no Christian woman was subject to rape?
