Jihad, schmihad more like just another two idiots, like all the other terrorist idiots, Tim McVeigh included, who think that their actions are some kind of payback for something done by the country's political leadership. Do they target the leadership. No. They won't even go up against a unguarded Congresswomen - they leave that up to some lone mental case who has no freaking idea what they do what the do. Jihadist my foot. You give them too much credit.

Do you hear of any Catholic priests calling for death to the non Christian insurgents ?

Christian terrorism is alive and well in this world, but I don't blame all Christians for the acts of the extremists.

And all of them in another country and very local. None of them want to take over the world.
They just want to rule their little local kingdoms.

So that is what you are concerned about, if it is local, it is no big deal? Nice try, but it is still Christian Terrorism, and it exists in this world.

Certainly... The government, would want you to think that.
But how many of us take their claims as Truth any more?

A few confused or sleeping people may do... but more and more people are waking up.

Christian terrorist, yes.

This organization is Christian terrorist, true.


This Christian is a piece of work
Mark Juergensmeyer: Why Breivik Was a Christian Terrorist

Breivik stated that "myself and many more like me do not necessarily have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and God."
Breivik did not commit his acts in the name of Jesus or Christianity. He was Islamophobic, and a far right individual, but he didn't commit his acts in the name of the Christian God.

Another White Christian terrorist

This guy did what he did in the name of white supremacy. Not Christianity.

And here is a Catholic Priest ordering people to be killed
Ex-priest jailed for Rwanda genocide - World news - Africa | NBC News

That guy did not commit his violence in the name of Christianity either. Ethnic tensions are the cause of his actions.

The Nazis? Can we at least use examples more relevant to this time?

Most of your examples are not committing their crimes in the name of Christianity. They are committing their crimes in the name of white supremacy. One of the terrorist organizations is from one of Africa's poorest countries which is just known for backwards thinking. Another is a wacko group of people in India that is only 500 people strong. India has millions of Christians and they are among the most liberal people in the whole country. This organization does not have the support of the Christian community there. This is in contrast to whole countries of Muslims that often have 50% or more of their population sympathetic to terrorism causes.

If I wanted, I could sit here and list a thousand Islamic mosques and organizations that support terrorism and the demonization of Western lifestyles. Your comparison of Christian terrorists to Islamic terrorists is not even close to equal.

I am not comparing the two, I am saying Christian terrorism exists.

Outside of Africa, where? And where does it reach the support that Islamic terrorism does?

Again, I wasn't comparing the two, I was simply showing that Christian terrorism exists, and not all of those links were based in Africa.
