>I am shocked and saddened that you have been so indoctrinated in the
ideology of your faith that you (1.) can't tell a pagan from a Satanist
and (2.) think that Satanists sacrifice children.
I agree with you there Nessie (shock horror), but...
> Even if they did, Christendom has far too much innocent blood on its
hands to criticize anybody else for killing babies. Aside from Crusades,
the Inquisition, the Holocaust and the slaughter of New World indiginents,
consider Iraq. Three or four days a week for nearly a decade now (mostly)
Christian bomber pilots have rained death on Iraq and (mostly) Christian
sailors have blockaded Iraqi ports. Nearly a half million Iraqi civilians
have died, most of them slowly and painfully. Almost all have been women
and children. And for what have they been sacrificed? Oil company profits.
It is, at the very least, obscene. To REAL Christians, i.e. the followers
of the teachings of Jesus himself, it is an abomination. To the vast
majority of people who call themselves "Christians" it is apparently not
worthy of outrage.
Well, I agree with the first few examples, although the example of the
Holocaust might be questioned on the grounds that while it was indeed carried
out by a Christian society and drew on anti-Semitism rooted in Christian
beliefs, the architects were somewhat contemptuous of such beliefs and as far
as I know, did not commit their vile act it in the name of God but to realise
the pseudo-scientific goal of maintaining racial hygiene. My real gripe,
however, is with your contention that current activity in Iraq is a good
example of Christians taking innocent blood. You only chose that because it
suits your ideological mindset. I would contend that it is somewhat removed
the example of the Crusades as the decision to bomb Iraq was made by a
nominally Christian politician, and not by a cleric. It isn't religiously
inspired.

be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and
