Peaceful religion?

Sad.  :(  With that kind of training/brainwashing, it would be a miracle if they DIDN'T grow up to become killers.

Hi all,

Well, I agree it is sad, but we are not immune to this in our own country. I was watching a video some time ago concerning the Iraq war. It showed a father, weeping as he dug his little girls lifeless body out of the rubble of his former home. I watched in horror as he pulled her out by her legs, her little arms flopping around, her clothes hanging off of her.

I noticed she was about the same age as my own precious, irreplacible daughter.

The man sat by her body and wept and wept as the commentary described targets hit and body counts. I can tell you I wept with him until I was sick.

I understand war, but the bomb that hit that house and killed that little girl was from a US warplane. We disguise a lot of hate by being patriotic and assuming we know the right thing to do and that God is always on our side because we are a "christian nation".

I realize that sometimes life must be taken in order to save lives. I don't have a problem with saving lives, but I have a huge problem with taking them.

My point is, I believe we must ALL take a good look at our own attitudes and hate. Sometimes it is hidden, sometimes it is blended together with things like "patriotism" and "responsibility" .

I love my country, but I love that little dead girl too.

Love to all,
chuck

I don't know which was worse- the video or the comments under it!

chuckusa- I really agree and am saddened by all this.  Isn't it just gonna get worse?  But what if a rocket rains down on your house and your daughter??  Rockets rain down on a Jews house and kills a daughter?  W/o Gods grace and help we will all hate each other till the end of the age. People don't forget losing their child and so the hate continues and passed down to their children.  In theory I agree that we need to stand strong against terrorism-even tho many here stay out of it-but it is all Gods Will.  (and they started it)  But in reality, when I see the man holding his dead daughter we just become people and it is so sad.

Don't we still pray for the peace of Jerusalem?? Are they not the apple of God's eyes. Didn't Jesus want to comfort them under His wings??  That is why conservative Christianity is so one sided for the Jews in Israel.For me when I see on the News jews and their houses, they kind of look like us dress like us, have entertainments, houses are modern like ours, so I can't help sort of being on their side.  Sorry there is nothing in the culture of Islam that is remotely like ours or anything that I would want-specially women treated like 2nd class citizens.

Chuckusa this isn't really in response to your posts but to those comments on youtube.

Hi Gena,

I understand what you mean....I guess I just understand their hate. With no God, and no faith...how else could they react.

Without God, the enemy is elusive. It's EVERYONE. I don't know if that makes much sense, it's early morning... :)

Blessings and Peace,
Chuck
