"Terror group Islamic State beheads another Christian this time a priest in the conflict-torn Syria. The Catholic priest Father Yacob Boulos, was severely punished for offering prayers in his church. Media has remained silent over this incident as this incident actually took place on February 18, but nobody reported it unless it was brought out by an Italian newspaper."

Well his own Pope says global warming is a bigger problem and we must breed with muslims to save Europe and the world.

I’m sorry.
The “pope” and his Muslim-centric champion in Washington at the White House tell us that there is NO Christian persecution in the MidEast. This priest is not a saint, he did not die in his own blood. /sarchasm

“was severely punished for offering prayers”

Killed by beheading is pretty severe punishment alright.

The Pope’s bully pulpit is bigger than Obama’s. Where is the pope on this?

Yacob Boulos is, IMO, now save in the arms of his Savior. Those of us still here need to get serious about (or redouble our efforts at) ending the mohammedan scourge.

Revelation 20:4
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

“Altar?

Christians don’t do animal sacrifices.”

No, they don’t. In this case, altar referring to where the sacrifice of the Holy Mass is offered.

And the government is forcing us to accommodate how many of these creatures?

A side question: how powerful are industrial wood chippers?

Thousands and thousands. Maine has been having a problem with the Somali’s for years. That’s just one grain of sand in the entirety of the nationwide problem.

What a horrible thing to say. This does not represent FreeRepublic well at all.

I was not Catholic baiting. I did not know about them still doing “non animal” sacrifices. Post 11 set me straight.

I must have stepped on a mine. I have no idea why that bothered you so much.

I’m really trying to get my church to drop the altar thing b3cause it is an old testament law thing. Apparently Catholics are super sensitive about it as well. I honestly had no idea. The list of similarities between Catbilic teaching and the teaching at my church (church of God) continues to shrink.

But I in no way meant to offend.
