How many Baptists have gone postal and beheaded former co-workers ?

Or..how many beheadings have been done by Baptists ?

Islam and beheadings are connected like it or not.

Sgt. Lewis said the FBI is working in conjunction with the Moore Police Department, especially when it comes to the religious aspect of the case.

LOL, Katrina was 2005 but do go way back to 1977.

The degree of severance matters because it goes to what his intent was. Since he hasn't been questioned, we don't know what his intent was. And he may not be willing to tell us what his intent was.

I'm certainly not willing to condemn an entire religion, a religion followed by much of the world, because of the actions of one man who may or may not have had any religious motive.
One man? Where have you been since 1993?

Please know that many of us are not condemning. However, we are extremely concerned about a consistent threat to our safety that is intimately associated with Islam.

Our country and other countries (including Middle Eastern countries) have spent much time, money, effort and infrastructure on combating terrorism...the vast majority of it linked to Islam. These Islamist extremists kill/want to kill us as infidels and they kill/want to kill fellow Muslims for infractions that confer infidel status. They appeal to the lost, offering support and a guaranteed cushy life in heaven (although how anyone can believe that is beyond me) in exchange for an allegiance rooted in violence.

Signs of Islamist extremist infiltration in our country are naturally of great concern. For every nutcase or incompetent convert to radical Islam there may be many more under the radar.

Hypothetical: your car breaks down in a " bad" part of town. You have to walk. Across the street comes a group of young men. Would you prefer they be (1) coming from Bible study or (2) wearing black headgear common to radical Islamists?

And ya'll need to lay off the born-again Christians. It's the NON-Born-again Christians you need to worry about!

My response was in response to someone saying that a day or two without electricity and things would go crazy. I added that you don't even need a day for that to happen. The NYC Blackout of 1977 is evidence of that.
