Baptism in the Tigris for U.S. Christian soldiers...

Here's the real gem from this article:


Many have killed or wounded Iraqis during the intense hunt for guerrillas and former regime loyalists around Tikrit, a hotbed of anti-American resistance and pro-Saddam sentiment. "The Bible says 'thou shalt not kill' but the original Greek says 'thou shalt not take a judicially innocent life.' Saddam and his men are pretty evil, if they were tried in any court, they would be found guilty," said Goodwin.



Oh brother... Do these people hear themselves?

2. No they don't
they live in a world of total denial where reality doesn't apply to them.

3. no wonder they hate us
baptisting in the tigris? what in the hell do they think they are doing. as a christian i find this replusive to use the tigris. to me this is the muslim/islam "river"as it runs thru the heart of islam. what would happen if islam defamed the "jordan river" or the dead sea of the jewish/christian religion..i don`t know shit like this really pisses me off...

4. say what?
"to me this is the muslim/islam "river"as it runs thru the heart of islam."____isn't this a tad intolerant?

Are you suggesting that Muslims are intolerant of other religions? To the point that they are offended by the presence of people with different religions in 'their' lands?

Sort of like this is a Christian river(or land) don't let it be fouled by the presence of those pesky Muslims? :shrug:

5. that's a stretch
No one is trying to be intolerant or disrespectful. Just making a point about the geography.
