A Roman Catholic priest has been shot dead outside his church in the Turkish harbour town of Trabzon. The police are looking for a teenager who according to witnesses carried out the shooting. The identity of the victim who was shot in the heart isn't yet known but according to tv station NTV he is an Italian.

It isn't yet clear whether the murder has anything to do with the recent publication of cartoons of the muslim prophet Mohammed.

This will become more and more common. Increased bombings of churches, particularly Catholic churches, will occur, and I would not be surprised if they attempted to do something in Vatican City.

Maybe soon the public will finally become aware that we are in a religious war. Muslims certainly think so.

The problem is that we are not taking them at their word. Surely, they're just saying it for effect - er, maybe not?

We're Christians. We have a long history of turning the other cheek. In fact, our Founder said something about that...

Not like Mad Mo, who was one of the most bloodthirsty delusionaries in history.

Did they find out who set fire to the churches in Alabama yet? It is unreasonable to think of an Islamic connection?
