So true.

Different pope. That shows just how far left the church has turned in just 10 years.

Yes, the current Pope is unworthy of the position.

“This has been one insane month for wild headlines. Terrorist attacks, cop killings, all sorts of scandals and controversies on top of two high publicity political conventions. It’s hard to believe. In the past week or so alone, there were four terrorist attacks in Germany (the axe attack, the shooting, the machete attack, and the suicide bomber). “

You need to quit being so ‘dark’. Don’t you know we are safer than we’ve ever been? /s

Hollande found the attack disgusting. Now we know that he wasn’t eagerly watching it and munching popcorn. How reassuring.

islam is incompatible with human nature. It is a cancer on the face of the earth.

"The Church tells me to reply with love, but all I feel is hate."

We are told to respond with love and forgiveness as individuals to acts that are committed directly against us personally, but the government is ordained by God to wield the sword to ensure justice and to maintain an orderly society. Many Christians, especially today with the liberalism infecting so many churches, think that the only biblical response to evil is pacifism. That is completely wrong.

If the pacifist Christians were correct, then we would disband our military and police and open the prisons and free all the prisoners. That, in itself, would be evil because we would be responsible for unleashing evil upon innocent victims. We are to protect the innocent.

No, the proper response to this vile Islamic murder spree is to utterly crush them. This cancer will only spread at an ever accelerating rate unless we destroy their will to fight. That's going to take much more than pinprick attacks. Think something closer to WWII than the current anemic drone strikes. Of course, we know there is only one candidate for President who is willing to do what is necessary.

Travis, I have not posted anything since Nov 2015. Your essay compelled me to respond.

It is a brilliant essay that should be read by all. I am sending it to all I know.

I hope that you continue to post the link to the essays in all relevant threads. We need to spread the word.

Very dark days lie ahead for Western civilization.

Yes, I am afraid it is. Here's the thing about these muzzies, they are completely fatalistic: whatever happens is the will of their moon god. Not science, not human actions, everything is the will of their false god. Thus, when the big one is dropped on Raqaa, they will get the message from the moon god and STFU.

And there's a second justification: assume that the "moderate" muslims, whoever they are, do not want to get fried. Maybe they will try harder to persuade their brethren?

You would think if you listened to Trump very long that there were terrorists sawing the heads off Priests in their own churches or something. That just isn’t reality. /sarc

So why didn’t the parishioners blow him away first, with their full-auto assault rifles, derringers, or BB guns?

I hope that this wakes up the Pope, and starts the mobilization of the Catholic Church.

On a personal note, this atrocity has angered me more than most any other.

I have been to war several times with islamists, talked with many of them and studied a good bit of their doctrine. I consider myself jaded with their brutality. Even 9-11 did not surprise me, while most were shocked and unbelieving.

But for some reason, this one particularly angers me. Literally, if their were a call up, I would volunteer.

No more half measures against these monsters.

And they celebrate and are proud of killing an 86 year old priest. You cannot reason with that mentality.

It’s an ACT OF WAR.
PERIOD.
Our so-called leaders obviously don’t give a sh$t if us commoners get shot, hacked to death, beheaded, exploded, crucified or burned up.
Until it affects them, they will do NOTHING BUT COVER IT UP.
And by the time they become affected, it will be too late.
Arm yourselves.
Chaos is coming unless ALL the political elite are kicked out on their collective a$$es.
